Let Sleeping Dogs and Kittens Lie.

Busy day doing today. Catching up on the washing and ironing and cleaning...all very boring stuff.

I did my boot session this morning and a run...I felt dreadful. I'm going again tonight and really hope I don't feel so tired.

I've got my brother and his wife staying with me for a while from today...God help me! I'm dreading it. Good job they don't see blip. They are between moves. I don't mind a few days but I've got them for a couple of weeks. I'm not looking forward to all the extra that comes with having people to stay and without being unkind...they don't help out either! I'm also really worried that they might not pick up the key to their new home as something could go wrong. I'm going to be pulling my hair out, I just know what I'm like...and I know what they are like. I like to be up and out in the morning...they are happy to stay in bed all morning. I like to be up and doing...they like sitting down...a lot. I like people who just help themselves to tea and coffee...they wait for me to do it. It might be different, but I doubt it. We are worlds apart. I like seeing them for a day....but two weeks, eek! I like my space, my peace, my private little world....I don't want it being disturbed....is this really bad and selfish of me to dread it and not want it so much....I really wonder why I agreed to do this. I must learn to say no.

They also have a cat coming with them. I was really hoping to get rid of the cat litter tray when the last kitten goes on Friday. I just hope it gets on with my cat....and I hope my dogs tolerate it. They are great with the kitten but anything that comes here that shouldn't, they like to see it off. I'd hate to see it run off.

I'm trying to come up with something to see if they can leave somewhere around 20th. I have a really busy time around then...and I need my house to myself so I can get on. Any good excuses gratefully received. I'm not a bad person....honest...just being realistic.
