Hi all,

Please can I join in?

I read this thread yesterday and it inspired me (?!) to do a tonne around the house!

I cleaned oven, dishwasher, washer and went totally through the house I was like a woman possessed! OH came in from work and asked what had happened to me to spur me on so I replied the lovely people on here made me feel shameful

My challenge today I think is classed as level three it is to remove all blinds and clean them not that I want to they just really need done and I know whe I'm finished my two gorgeous little cats will just wind themselves around every blind in the house and I will wonder why I bothered!!!

I've dosed up on Oramorph, and my shoulder is now functional enough to type without screaming in pain.:T (Oi! Jojo! Budge up on the psychedelic bench, will you?):D:D:D

I realise with some horror that my manners have sneaked out and gone on holiday.... we've had several new Flyers join us, and I've yet to say WELCOME!

I'm afraid today's challenge does not apply to me in any way, shape or form. We haven't done presents for several years now, and have no plans to do them in the future.:o


I shall grab a caffeine infusion, then get on with what I can manage to do.:o
