    Although no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.

    Washing up done, one load of laundry in the machine, utility room tidied, and kitchen surfaces half done. Oh... And two of the three curtain poles that need sanding have been washed. Still a ,ong way to go to make the place feel habitable... Off to clean the hob :)

    Then I should probably go to the farm shop to buy veg before it gets dark...

    Tooch - if you want me to read your application letter when you've done it, let me know.

    I've been shopping this morning, got DH's main present now so that's me pretty much sorted.
