More decluttering and a 'lazy day'.

My beloved forgot to turn his alarm off this morning so it woke us just after 5am!

I got  up and made a cuppa to take back to bed, but whilst waiting for the kettle to boil I turned the freezer off, put old towels in front of the freezer topped with the oblong washing up bowl.

I returned to bed with the tea and managed to get back to sleep, by the time I awoke and was dressed the freezer was defrosted.

All the frozen food now fits in one freezer though I may spread it out between the 2 to make it easier to find things.

There were a few things we should have gone out and done today but I felt like a lazy day so we stayed home.

Even so my lazy day included getting 4 loads of washing done and mainly dry on the line as well as defrosting the freezer.

I checked the inventory for the narrow boat, it seems it comes with everything that is on board, erm, it looks as though the owner has just popped out for a pint of milk!



The kitchen is full of equipment and the shelves are full of books and other stuff, hey ho, more decluttering to come.

I should think that you and your L&M spent the day mentally hugging yourselves.
How soon before you can say goodbye to the salt mines? For the sake of the L&Ms health I hope it is sooner rather than later.

You make me feel very unadventurous. I had dismissed the idea of a houseboat in Bembridge harbour. Wimpy, that's me.

Eeek! Just seen what's happened to your last blog. That certainly didn't take long - looking very different now, not one to bother with now.

We will be up a few more times before we move her nearer to home. I'll let you know next time.

Wardrobe

We have a wardrobe in the bedroom that was left by the previous resident. It is perfectly sound but it smells of stinky feet. I've tried...
