I have been trying to get caught up on some real-life tasks as well, so haven't spent much time blogging this month. I'm taking advantage of a few spare moments this morning, to get caught up here today.

The stamps were the pensioner ones, the first book I bought and then lost right away. I believe what was under your dishwasher; it's not a piece of furniture regularly moved for cleaning, so all sorts of crud collect under them. Like fridges and washing machines.<br /><br />joeh; I usually sleep pretty well anyway, but maybe there'll be less hayfever now the dust has gone.<br /><br />Plasman; I'm looking forward to being cooler, I'm so fed up with sweating and feeling sapped of all energy.<br /><br />Kathy G; I did, 5 solid hours before Angel miaowed in my ear.Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2664393407924733681.post-38048625898109096452016-03-21T00:45:02.052+10:302016-03-21T00:45:02.052+10:30After all your hard work I bet you slept REALLY go...After all your hard work I bet you slept REALLY good last night :-)Kathy Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10593849691667606991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2664393407924733681.post-18449523160749419672016-03-20T23:06:34.849+10:302016-03-20T23:06:34.849+10:30Hi River,

Full priced or the newer pensioner stamps like we use? You would not believe was under our dishwasher when a tradesman pulled it out the other day.

Maybe she is head of the local chapter :D<br /><br />Elephant's Child; we've had two beautifully cool days, so I feel the energy returning and the nights have been rather chilly. I had to put a blanket on the bed. To be fair, my bookshelf is just a little thing and I only have two major rooms to clean.The kitchen and bathroom get done almost daily.<br /><br />fishducky; I hope the house wasn't huge. That's a lot of painting! I'd love to paint this place, it's all housing commission cream :( but there are so many layers of paint slapped on over god knows what, it would take more money and time than the place is worth to strip it all back and start over.Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2664393407924733681.post-4746128859159984972016-03-20T17:34:08.811+10:302016-03-20T17:34:08.811+10:30I gave a friend who also collected duck parapherna...I gave a friend who also collected duck paraphernalia a picture of a white duck (outlined in black) with a white background.
