In more gobsmacking news I have been bitten by the cleaning bug. I know. Me. Most odd. No I'm not pregnant, nor are the parents due anytime soon..... but yet I found myself washing down paintwork. V. scary.
Must be the day for it - I've just spent the morning reclaiming the every room in the house from several weeks of 'meh - better things to do'. Just the hoovering and ironing to do... bit spooky really, I'm just not this way inclined....:eek:0 -

Thwarted. Sent home from the wrinklies with 3kg of knitting wool. My poor little sister left clutching a bin bag full of cassette tapes and some floppy discs which caused much hilarity after DD2 pointed out that she'd previously seen some in a museum. Much more tat will be directed my way as the wrinklies commence a mammoth loft cull.
Surgery is sceduled for tomorrow. I'm almost ready for it. Almost. Just the bathrooms to clean and beds to make ready for the DDs return.
Got £16 for all the outgrown clothes and shoes which I subequently splurged on a whole lot of fluff for spinning.
Bank accounts are healthier than they've been in a long while. Still resisting the urge to splurge although did take advantage of The Book Peoples free postage on anything promotion to aquire a £2.99 book.
Planning a bookcase cull and an overhall of the welsh dresser whilst in my current ruthless frame of mind. Both need doing, mostly because book cases are for books. Not china or fruit bowls or pencil cases. The welsh dresser appears to be the OHs current dumping ground of choice and has aquired several bits of broken models and a few landie spares which will be dispatched to the shed. Still not got the former dumping ground completely cleared but its getting there.... very very very very very sloooowly.Saving for a Spinning Wheel and other random splurges : £183.500 -

Love the hats! Good luck with surgery.....make sure you rest up afterwards - 2 weeks after mine I am only just feeling human again and did get a surge of energy which I read as my body had now 'healed' My OH dumping ground of choice is either the slow cooker or fruit bowl - I am making little laminated warning signs to put in each - will so hack him off but I am sick repeating myself
Remember rest up afterwards Moo!Be the change you want to see -with apologies to Gandhi
