    OK, so it doesn't look like there's too much to do tomorrow; unfortunately, the spare room is filled with stores, and also has the trolley that normally resides in the kitchen in there, with Ted's "suitcase" on it, so it's not as straightforward as one would think. (Ted's bed is currently where the trolley usually lives - this arrangement is standard when I have a canine guest).

    At least I finally caught up with the last remaining task from Tuesday - did the storage area in my computer desk, as that was most in need. Got rid of some old Mensa magazines plus a few other publications and miscellaneous bits of paper that are no longer needed, and it's all nice and tidy again.....for now!:D

    I've bunged the ingredients for sweet'n'sour sauce in a saucepan, measured out some rice, and got 2 slices of HM nut loaf out of the freezer, just need to get that lot kicked off in a few minutes, to time it to be ready when Mr LW gets home.:o

    Creeps in carefully in order to avoid various Flyladies low, high and lobbed teddies and/or worse objects.

    Just off to tackle the Dailies - might try to extend this at the weekend - but as I have an engagement necessitating me standing in the middle of a field for hours a week on Sunday, I really, really, really need to recover.

    Had a :wall::wall::wall: day at work - worse than yesterday which was only :wall::wall:

    Glad the news wasn't as bad as you feared Cat Smith - hope the BD goes away too.

    :T to all those with GCSE results today - so much pressure these days.

    Time to shut up and get on.
