THE SLOTH WOKE UP!

Good grief, yesterday I got turfed off the bed and she stripped it, bundling everything washable into the magic wet machine. Then she reappeared to 'make the bed' with crisp clean linens and a new blue top cover.

Such action! And it didn't stop there, she then vacuumed the bedroom. Cleared the dudu off the hall surfaces, dusted and polished them, vacuumed, put two candlestick lamps with toile de jouy shades onto the chest of drawers and a piece of silver, rehung Hugo's medal designs and the little icon back on the walls.

I was chased off each top of door that I perched upon, Beaky likes books you see, it's a hideous passion for those crunchy spines has ruined thousands of £'s worth of valuable books, she cannot sell them now, that's for sure.

Walk-in cupboad gave up its' prize possession! An airtight bag full of boxes of original Twinings LapySang. I don't care what Twinings say - by the way Twinings has been bought by the family who own Primark and Selfridges - they HAVE altered the recipe of this tea, when she was tipped the wink by a tea buyer friend of hers, she swooped and bought a huge amount of the tea. Kept in airtight conditions she probably has enough for the rest of our lives! The new packaged stuff bears no resemblance to the original!

We are keeping to the elimination diet, her knees are less swollen and are looking much smaller! She is stiff in that joint if she sits for a long time on a bus journey but finds the trick of getting up and standing for a bit helps stop that. And the finger joints on her right hand are considerably less swollen! Yippee.

She saw a friend very briefly on Friday who showed her an interesting book! She only buys books that are 'meaty and of factual importance', all the rest she borrows from the library. Talking of which.. ouch ouch ouch.. when she was sick in the chest and head, she forgot about her library books and ran up a debt of £27.00, she had 11 books out and had to hand over the dosh over on Tuesday to unblock her account. Good thing she and I are practising frugality at the moment, isn't it!

Twenty seven squidly-diddlies.. that'll larn her, that's for sure!

Anyway, enough of doom and being silly. This 'ere book, which she plans to buy it this week is very scary and I will blog on it.. for there is information in it that made her blood boil as it will do yours as well.. but you ain't hearing anything about it until she's got it, the book, in her hands.

Today was the day for clearing off every flat surface in the bedroom and dusting it, what a lot of dudu  there was on her bedside table, which is the top of a cupboard or the bottom shelf off a bookcase, whichever way you want to look at it! There are identical book cases either side of her bed.

Next week she is going to Dawes Glass to place an order for two pieces of glass with which she will cover the top surfaces and two long but narrow pieces of mirror for the bathroom.

Rubbish galore.. aka dudu disappeared into a black bag, empty envelopes and old letters of no importance, she has a bag full of stuff that needs to be shredded as well but that will be a chore for another day. A longer connection flex for the iPad to its' charger was unearthed, she knew she'd had one once upon a time and there it was!

A very late lunch was cooked, lots of vegetables with meat! Goodness me, I'd almost forgotten about meat! And very tasty it was. She'll see if she has any untoward reactions later today but so far, her system and her hands are very content with the new diet routine of lots of vegetable and eggs with fish, so perhaps meat, for a BIG treat on Sunday, might just be ok?

We will have to wait and see. In the meantime, I have to go, she's a'going hunting for this new book and needs iPad.. have a good week folks and remember to read Tales from GeeGee Parrot.. aka yours blog often to amuse and educate yourself. ChirpChirp.

GeeGee Parrot.
