    Sorry Dusty, no GUAG here - maybe yours has eloped with mine?
    Flippin' migraine again;:( it's now subsided enough to let me use the netbook (I had something urgent to do, or I wouldn't have bothered logging on today). Other than that I did a WM load (now on A-frames over the bath) and I've obviously attended to Jack's needs, but that's all today, I fear.:(

    At least Jack's a happy boy - he's been for walkies, and he had tuna for his tea (W!nalot dog food) so he's got a full tum.:o
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)

    Hair done, nails done, few bits put in washbag.

    Peeped in on DS, aww he sort of stirred and half opened his eyes but gave me a lovely big smile. He's gawjuss.

    I've got mum popping over tomorrow, think she wants a natter. And I'm going to tackle the bathrooms and get my bag together.

    Need to amend my grocery shop too - need toothpaste!

    Evening all :wave:

    pigpen love the rainbow knitting! I hope with practice I will become as lovely knitter as you are.
    Dusty returning vibes for your GUAG. Mine has finally made a very welcome reappearance, I hope it stays
    lw hope your migraine clears and less of you haven't done much! Jack sounds like a very happy doggie, you've made his day by being the caring person that you are.

    Flying:

    DW is on
    WM been on and washing hung on indoor line
    LR dusted and hettyed
    Hallway dusted and hettyed
    Dry washing put away if non-iron or in the ironing basket if it's for ironing.
    Clothes hung up from the floordrobe
    Bedroom dusted
    Kitchen and bathroom hettyed

    Must remember to remove cat food before I go to bed, devil kitten is off for his 'op' in the morning so he can start going out. Me and the other 2 cats will breathe a sigh of relief, I caught him on the shelf in the pantry earlier (they are narrow and full of tins and jars) the carnage he would have caused.

    Goodnight all
