I've been very lucky ampersand - the guys here have been fab and done it all without a word of complaint or even a raised eyebrow
Sorry that you've lost so much stuff - hope you get it all sorted soon0 -
I hold my head up.... I fancied something unhealthy & we didn't have anything in the house except raw ingredients so I made cakes
(anything to get away from putting away all the clean dry washing, and I hang it back down again in shame).
We don't need to do it perfectly - good enough is exactly that GOOD ENOUGH.

So glad I'm not the only one with dog wee stains - only mine are on the carpet in the hall. I will be hiring a carpet cleaner now we're on a DMP and I can afford it as not all our money is going on CC bills.Please forgive me if my comments seem abrupt or my questions have obvious answers, I have a mental health condition which affects my ability to see things as others might.0

Great thread
Decided to check my fruitbowl, which I found contained
Post it notes
Pen
2 date labels from pies
3 Christmas tree decorations
cardboard protector for sharp knife
tupperware lid
unknown plastic top
tin opener
a piece of ginger (bought a couple of weeks ago to make a ginger drink)
Well, I now have a fruitbowl which has my sharpest knife with it's protector on and the piece of ginger - perhaps I could combine the two and make that drink at last
cheers!Not Rachmaninov

Grind to a halt days: the days ...like mine today...when you have plenty to do you just can't seem to face doing it because your tired/cold/uninspired.
These often occur in clusters.0 -
Just discovered this thread and have spent the last hour howling with laughter at your posts - can I join in?
I don't have too much to offer at the moment, though the house is really untidy, but I just keep stuffing things into cupboards and telling DD not to open them....
However, I am busy trying to write an essay for my OU course, and my DH has been away for 3 days, so no-one has done any washing up......earlier, I needed to fill the kettle, but couldn't get to the tap, so I've piled all the dirty plates, dishes, cups etc into a large plastic bucket and put it on the back yard to wait for his return. (I did see my cat giving them a lick as she went past, so that's taking care of the worst of it)
Does this count - is it good enough for me to join you (she asks anxiously!)
