    pigpen I hope dot is better soon bronchiolitis is horrible. :(

    I am going to try to list some old books and clothes on ebay today. Not had much success in the past. I have lost more than I have made.How did people clean carpets in the olden days? dry brushing doesn't work. I sat on the lounge floor and used the dog brush the other day. I need an offer somewhere with time to pay for a vacuum cleaner.

  • Dusky - you are right about cats - mine tend to drop the bodies everywhere and l am sure they leave them in the garden for the dogs to eat and then vomit up :mad:
    Yesterday had a day looking for stuff - had lost phone, charger and camera, expensive dog brush needed for my long haired girl (she looks like a teddy with her stuffing coming out - tufts sticking out everywhere. Managed to find them all:jbut in the meantime that meant l cleaned the the cupboards and draws in the lounge :j:j:j:j
    Today is a big clean up day - brushed the girl and dog fur flew everywhere. In hindsight l should have done it outside so today will hoover through the downstairs.

    Happy flying ladies :A

    morning all
    was up till 1.30AM ironing :eek: i think i've done about half of it now. have spent the enitire morning in DS2 room ive moved te wardrobe about 6 inches from one side of the alcove to the other that was a pig of a job but i think it looks better, ive moved his tv off the chest of drawers onto the lower table, dusted to within an inch of an asthma attack (and i dont even suffer from it) going to hopefully find carpet in a bit so i can hover through upstairs before dinner. i did find his school uniform that was supposed to have been put in the wash last friday, wondered why i couldnt remember seeing his jumper come through.

    Morning all :)

    Belated birthday wishes for Dusty and anyone else I've missed xx

    I haven't really done much - cold went into my gut and I've had a stomach bug :( Did do some shopping and have been pottering about but nothing significant.

    I need to get some stuff done - hopefully it will fuel the energy and enthusiasm in me :)
    Catch you later,
    brightest blessings,
    Jenny x
    Everything happens for a reason :)
