SHEs Organized

Idk how you find time to do homemade on top of everything else, trissie. Sauces do freeze well so cooking in bulk comes in handy.

Clocking back in with some good intentions to keep me moving forward…

Prep supper
Living room
Paper chores

Hello, everyone!

Helian, yesterday sounded lovely! I don't know if they're available , but the "Command" picture strips might be suitable for pictures for your DMum's room. No nails, they don't mark the wall, and the picture can be moved if needed.

Yesterday sounded lovely for you too, Laura. I'm glad your DMum enjoyed it.

Trissie, the cottage was hard work! You're a very good Mum, helping DS.

You've had a busy day, L.Ann!

Bama, I can understand the difficulty of getting pet sitters for your menagerie! Years ago, when we had one cat, it was reasonably straightforward, as our neighbours also had a cat, so we could reciprocate. Multiple cats are a different league altogether. And, of course, most of our cats over the years have been "special" in some way (Lupin was diabetic and needed twice daily insulin injections, Trifle hated everyone except "Mum", and showed her feral side to everyone else. And now, we have Freddie...)

Upstairs is now clean and tidy, Freddie has had another walk (he insisted! ) and I'm thinking of going up to bed before I fall asleep non this chair.
