    That’s what cats do .......
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    It's all new to me, I've either been around dogs or rabbits, very rarely cats.

    Decided to start gutting T's room as it looked like a bomb had exploded in there. He's not going to be happy as he won't find some things but he was warned several times that if he didn't do it, I would be. Currently laid on our bed in front of the fan trying to get a second wind!

    Poor T??? I found dirty socks under his pillow when I changed his bedding and his dirty pjs were slung under his bed, that's after multiple warnings about putting stuff in the wash! His 5 year old sister can manage it without being told. I've spent hours with him in his bedroom sorting out and it looked even worse than before we started and we'd managed to tidy half the bloody room!

    I've hoovered right through, changed our bedding, washed, dried and put away the old bedding, moved a DVD rack, tidied up a little downstairs, washed up, cleaned Toby's litter tray, emptied bins and put rubbish out and now my hip hurts, my hands are stiff and the bottom of my back is aching.

    I think this is why J doesn't trust me to behave when I'm home alone...

    Dirty clothes?? Is that the worst you can come up with???? Try 10 pieces of chewing gum stuck to the carpet!

    I ignored the bluetack stuck to the carpet and he needs to be reminded every day to change his boxers or he'll keep the same one on for a week... Besides, he's 10. He's generally not allowed chewimg gum just yet! There's plenty of time for it to get worse!!!

    But 10 year old boys think they are invinceable! They are, of course top of primary and looking towards secondary... Want to come and sort my girls' bedroom out?

    You’re more than welcome to come and sort my bedroom out. It’ll make T’s room look immaculate in comparison.

    Morning love, how are you? What's on today's agenda? Are you pacing?
