    I will join too - because this year my ironing basket has not always been emptied plus DS will be bringing laundry home I expect.

    Oh go on then, you can add me to the challenge too Dusty.. :D Even though I fail miserably..and with everything going on at the moment even getting the tree up will be a miracle so gods knows what hope I have of the ironing being done. But I will give it a good go :D

    Thank you everyone for your kind words regarding Ollie, the little wotsit seems so much brighter tonight. He even managed to eat 40g of Gourmet Gold fish flakes this afternoon, but he is drinking a heck of a lot when he is awake. I keep crying my eyes out over the slightest thing at the moment, even when Ollie head butted me while I was sitting down with him and his dinner :D DH will carry him upstairs again tonight, even though he can climb the stairs with no trouble at all. I think it makes DH feel closer to Ollie. And as I type this he is munching into another small bowl of fish flakes.

    Next week I need to keep as normal as possible and I need to get the house decorated for Christmas even though I don't feel like it. But some sort of normality will be good for all of us here, animals and DH included. So a full week of house cleaning etc for me I think :p
