    You’re still giving out Chufty badges? I need to pull my finger out and myself one.

    Your posts are so much better since making a home. A family.

    And I even read you did some pacing?

    I hope you have done some more reading in the garden. That is a great thing to do. If its in the shade.
    And with the drinking. I do worry a little about it. I drink a lot and its not enough. I started making my own ice tea. Its so simple. Just a bottle with water. For one liter I use one to two tea bags. Put them in the water and in the fridge. And a few hours later. Lovely cold ice tea. Just an idea 🙂

    Have you tried a bit of Vanish on the stain? It's worked well in the past for me.

    Mira, I'm so much happier in a village than I ever was in a city, and that's without taking into account that I have a family now.

    Flo, I had it soaking in vanish for 4 hours yesterday and it's still not come out and just put it through the washer with a couple of scoops. It's faded enough for her to wear it.

    Well the children now have clean bedding, I've done a wash and I've stripped the top layer of paper in the summerhouse!

    I love this!
    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.

    That will teach me a lesson! Just because my hands are feeling ok doesn't mean I should strip the full summerhouse in one go. Wrists are throbbing today so wearing my compression gloves

    I’m like that too. Make the most of your good days and end up suffering for doing too much later but at least the job is done now. I hope today involved nothing more strenuous that turning the page of a book or changing tv channel.
