Reporting progress

Hard to believe, but I have taken the day off so that I can spring clean! The day has dawned cold but bright and already I’ve had a text from a friend who is popping over for a glass of water and a chat J Things are looking up already!!

However, I know I can sometimes get overwhelmed, given that my to do list contains some of my least favourite things. So I intend to regularly update so that I feel I'm not facing the day alone :D

  6. 5.30pm and last post (cos this could run forever - the cleaning never ends...)
    Well, I feel well qualified to distinguish Lego from K-nex and Meccano,having spent vast quantities of time on Joe's bedroom floor these last two days, sifting through minute debris. We're not there yet, and I'm supposed to be actually doing paid work from home tomorrow. But a difference has been made and that, for now, will have to do...
