Meal for one

ACH I was making myself something to eat earlier and found myself lifting two plates out of the cupboard and of course herself is in France. Sighing I put it back.

Then I went to lift a spoon out of the drawer and it was dirty, the next was really dirty, the next was greasy, the fourth meh, finally on the fifth go, a clean spoon.

The knife and fork weren't far off either. I sighed again for completely different reasons. One of my clean-ups while she is away involves the cutlery drawer. What joy; sighs again.

At least she is coming back. I have nobody to blame for the greasy spoons or untidy house!

Aw - pet hugs to you - come to my house, you can take 4 plates out each time and the spoons stay in the drying rack, they rarely make it back to the drawer!

Oh my god, someone else with a filty cutlery drawer. Hooray! I have a plan to hoover mine out. Have had the plan for six years.
Along with dusting top of cupboards, cleaning light switches, wiping wall by front door as mud on it. WHY??? And washing out fruit bowl. (Huge, wooden, always has rotting piece of fruit however often I damn well buy new stuff.)
Honestly, life is tough.

@Boliath herself thinks the cutlery drawer is the cutlery container by the sink

@Manuel :( I know.

@ladybird World Mum All those wee jobs add up, and are things you notice all of a sudden... In saying that, shes away 5 days and nothign done yet.
