Morning all,

My list for today

• Feed the animals and walk the dog
• Paid stuff (kennels, admin)
• Catch up with uni work as I seem to have fallen behind this week
• Deal with Mr T delivery
• Laundry x 3 loads
• Load the DW and switch it on
• Take DD to the stables so she can feed her ponies
• Feed the animals and walk the dog

I think that is everything that I need to tackle today. I hope everyone has a lovely Sunday.

We got the secondary glazing down from the attic and realised it all needs a thorough clean, as do some of the windows where it goes up. Fortunately I did one of them very thoroughly a couple of weeks ago, but it's still taken us a couple of hours to do all the rest. We can't put it all up until everything's had a chance to thoroughly dry, but at least we did a bit of actual flying. I need to do a bit of polishing tomorrow and there's a bit of silver I missed when I did most of it last week.

Yesterday despite the rain I managed to get a load of towels washed and dried yesterday, a load of bedding that is finishing off in the kitchen as I type and changed the double so that chap has clean bedding for this week, and did the bins and vacuuming down there.

I also got round to potting up some polyannthus which have needed doing for a month, and made a decision about something I've felt very uncomfortable about for months and am very relieved I've decided enough is enough with a compromise for Belovéd to be okay with it. At 70 I am to old to go on seeing people I don't want to see just because they think they can bludge off me when it suits them. Enough of that. And if I can get a ticket to see the Bayeaux Tapestry when they go on sale again on 21 October I'll go and see Paddington the Musical when I'm in London, and if not, it doesn't matter. So I had a great night's sleep and woke up feeling a lot lighter.

Afternoon all. We've had DS's 3 year old Springer spaniel for the weekend so it's all been very exciting. I wish I had a quarter of her energy. And today we've had DS and his family for lunch and then they've gone home, taking their dog with them. It's going to be very quiet for a while.

Not enough washing for a load today, which was a shame because it was a reasonable day and it's supposed to rain tomorrow. No housework done today apart from meals and washing up. I'll vacuum tomorrow although it's not too bad at all.

Hope everyone's OK. I can't remember what's happened but hope anyone having a hard time has a better week next week x
