Minor Annoyances -

It's not how many dirty dishes are in the sink, but how long they've been there. Oh, and how much food was left on them when they were left there. That's key.
Piles of clutter attract more clutter. Add a kitten who wants to climb to the top and the results are not nearly as amusing as they were the first time she tried to climb something taller than the scratching post.
If you can put everything that was on the desk into a laundry basket, and then not need to look for anything in it later? Can probably be pitched or go to long-term storage. Yup.
Being without a washing machine for multiple weeks is scary. Really scary.
And with four cats, you really need to vaccum the house at least once a week. When most of the house dust is cat hair, you ought to be able to get a clue.

And?

Any day I don't have to come home at lunch to do housework is a good day. That's not been much of this week. Or the last.

Hang in there, dear one.

I secretly love pitching things. I should indulge in an entire day of it. In fact, I know an *entire drawer* that could go, right now.

I love pitching stuff too. I absolutely LOVE "sorting out" a paperwork drawer after a year or something, and landing up keeping only two pieces of paper or something.

kyburg, sorry things are hectc for you!

Ah, yes. Curse of the messy house.

I think this is why I don't have any pets... I can barely take care of myself, so trying to take care of anything/anyone else is... iffy.

Good luck. Take care. And hope to talk to you in a bit. =)
