    Piggers yes it is; the amount she's shed, you'd think she'd be bald!:D I Dysoned up a huge amount earlier, and the carpet's already got a black patina again where she's been lying. Not to worry, it's what I call "clean dirt" iyswim.:o

    We're off to the theatre tomorrow night (she'll be fine - I'll feed and exercise her before we go and leave the lights on, and it's a local theatre, so we'll be back directly after the performance);) and I've decided to wear a black outfit so that it won't show if she brushes against me.:rotfl:

    I'm just going to get her outside for a spot of exercise before it drops dark, now.;)

    We had a good old garden tidy today including sweeping (what a coincidence!). Also sorted DVDs, wm x 1, toys sorted in conservatory, kitchen clean and general tidy round. Everywhere has had a bit of attention this week. Including me, had a massage this aft!

    Gave the living room a good tidy & hoover today, including sofa & chairs so it's nice for the weekend. Other than that, not much done.

    Now that DS has started solids it feels like I am constantly preparing food & clearing up afterwards, so much easier when it was just breastfeeding!

    I've enjoyed this weeks new style lists thank you Dusty :-) and managed to pretty much keep up so just a quick tickle round in the morning then football game (fingers crossed its not a six- one humiliation like Tuesday night) Weekend off, flying done, tidy house. DGD1 here tonight for a sleep over and DGD2 tomorrow night :-) A very happy Nanamia. Hoping to get some bits on eba* too.


    Sorry I missed your birthday CyclingYorkie but have been reading and running this week (I don't need much excuse for a distraction, so I was very hard on myself this week) You sound like you are continuing the celebrations throughout the weekend. Well done you:-)
