All quiet on the western front

Haven't written anything for a few weeks, mainly because life has just flown by without me noticing. I have been busy sorting the house out, my continual quest to "just get on top of things so that all I have to do is maintain". The trouble with this is that in order to "just get on top of things" I have to get through several major projects. The latest one is to fence of a third of our garden, build the fence and gate, and then dig up the yard, level it off and then lay paving slabs so that the dogs do not continually drag in dust and mud from the garden into the house.

I think I will just have to accept there will never be a time when "I am on top of things". I am always going to be climbing a gigantic housework hill - but hey at least I will be fit, right?
