    Since my last post i have

    Made curry & rice (just waiting for the rice to finish cooking)
    Made rhubarb crumble with 4 of the 8 huge pieces of rhubarb for £1 from the market
    Cleared the table
    Sorted recycling
    Cleared drainer
    Washed up

    My back is killing so i'm sitting down for 5 mins while the rice finishes cooking.
  • I have

    *laundry x 2
    *daily reading with DS - we've started the Little House on the Prairie books - had forgotten how much fun they are :D
    *had tea with DS
    *found & retrieved recycling bins from neighbour's drive
    *emptied bins
    *found a new to us CD (Disney) which we are signing along to
    *decided on tea for DH, but not sorted yet :D

    time for a coffee and a lug of Dyson to upstairs...

    Moam
    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.

    Thanks for all the lovely wishes and comments about Louis - he's not mine but I have 2 of the same breed - his owner had 600 followers on Twitter at the start of all this - he now has over 1500 I understand! The power of social networking bought him back apparently - i will never think of time spent on here as wasted ever again! :D

    WM on again and another couple of loads ready to iron - jacket spuds in and Gov's meeting all wrapped up nice and early - might even get some crochet under way! I hate sitting in the evenings with nothing to do (except fend 2 fat beagles off my lap!) so I am making a blanket and a shawl for my friend's soon to be here grandson - one she thought she would never have so doubly special! Her son and DIL had a couple of rounds of IVF then went for their final one - treatment refused as she was 5 weeks pregnant all on her own! What lovely news, baby is due in June so I had better pull my finger out!

    Off to get the ironing done - have a good evening everyone!
    :j Almost 2 stones gone! :j

    I'm wandering in through my cobwebs for some help.

    I seem to think that somewhere on this Forum I have seen some sort of guide to "what to do when someone dies" and being an executor.

    I don't seem to be able to find it at the moment, so either I have imagined it or I'm just being dense.

    Can anyone help me?

    I'll even go and shift some cobwebs!
