Well, I flapped from cupboard to cupboard but couldn't keep up with her, so hopped onto the top shelf of the linen cupboard and settled down for a snooze.
But that didn't last very long, she put the chairs on the bed, picked up the long curtains and brought Mr.Bissell, the dust muncher, into the bedroom and he goes 'vroom' very loudly.
It was another boringly cold and dismally wet day, she spoke with Myra at midday and they both agreed it was a day to stay indoors and to do chores. There are a lot of chores to be done in our flat, today she did our bedroom and started on the cupboard that held her office equipment.
There's a lot of stuff in this cupboard.. but no junk.
Out came the fax machine and the telephone that was the work line, they'll be recycled through a charity shop. She found a big bag of Gold Russia braid, the contents of which are worth over £500!
The invoice was in the bag as well, tomorrow she'll call them and see if they'll take the stock back and reimburse her, otherwise she'll have to try and sell it to another lampshade maker.
A battery recharger and a small solar charger that she uses in the summer. A bag of jewellery (!) And yippee! Her premium bond numbers and her original birth certificate along with other very important family documents.
Some wonderful photos of Leslie and Hazel taken on their wedding day, in one of them she had the naughtiest smile on her face and when she had asked her aunt what she had been smiling at, she told her "that Leslie had just asked her what she wanted as a wedding present and she had told him that she wanted a motor bike"! Yes sirree.. that was her aunt.. aka Hay darling.
She went through papers, it is beyond the date she had to keep them so they will be burnt at the allotment, she'll take it in two lots. Old magazines are going out, she'll reread the parrot ones and then they will go as well.
Gardening and cookery books were put back into the book case. A couple of sheets of hand painted marble paper will be sent to a friend, he made her card and paper lampshades and she's going to put a small pair of lamps onto her desk and give them marble paper shades.
She wrote a thank you note to a friend, stamped the envelope, it's now sitting with her keys on the hall shelf ready to be posted tomorrow.
She must remember to buy a birthday card, write and enclose a letter in it and send it to Fanny, who lives on Majorca, for the end of the month, it's truly amazing to think she's been living there for over ten years now.
Our weather forecast is dreary so at this rate, we'll soon have a tidy flat. The next sunny day they're forecasting isn't until next Sunday! They aren't promising it will be warm but at least it'll be, or so they say, dry.
The carpet and rug were vacuumed, small rugs were given a good shake. A new bulb was fitted in our bedside light. A lamp put out into the hall, for either its' fuse has gone 'phut' or it needs some of her dearest Lawrence's magic touch.
A cupboard door needs attention for it's come off its' hinges, it has a mirror on it and is therefore incredibly heavy, she'll ask Juliano to help her get the door back into position and to screw the hinges back on.
Lots more to do in the flat but she did do a lot and our bedroom is now tidy! Next stop the hall.
But now it's B-E-D time. Boring but true. We wish "Goodnight to you all wherever you maybe".
