After yesterday's day off, Baggy was totally exhausted! Clever Bird reckons it was the sea air. So when the alarm went off, as there is so much to get on with, Baggy went straight back to sleep. Typical. However, The Domestic Goddess has a major challenge this week, Baggy's sister is coming to stay on Friday! Baggy loves her sister lots and this will be the first time that she's seen the house since Baggy and Calum moved in. Obviously, Debby has mixed memories about the house, same as Baggy did, because of what happened with their father's sudden death there, and their stepmother's consequent deterioration. But Baggy's excited about showing her how she's made it hers and Cal's home now. But there's one very big problem. And it's a HUGE one. The house is a total, dirty, mess. Because Gloria Gardener has been dominating Baggy, The Goddess has let things slide. plus as she's been bringing more and more stuff over from the soon-to-be-a-holiday cottage, there's stuff dumped in pretty much every room. Now it probably doesn't really matter, but Debby's house is always absolutely immaculate and Freda Fretter doesn't want her to think Baggy's is a mess. So, operation clean up commenced today.
But first Furry Mama walked Minty Mutt. Then true to Baggy's new regime, she was going to take Grotty Groom over to see the Boys. But as Furry Mama walked, Hormonal Hannah started to put Baggy into a bit of a panic about just how much there was to do to get the house straight. Plus Clever Bird needed to speak to the solicitor about the land (again). And she needed to call a holiday cottage letting company to get someone to help and advise her. And cancel a dentist appointment. And call about getting a mortgage. And speak to the Bank. And, and....... Suddenly it all got way too much. Clever Bird decided that it would be best if Baggy got the gang moving on these things and took Grotty to the yard later, when they'd actually achieved something. Especially as the horses might have been out anyway. Decision made, Baggy got home and made phone calls. The solicitor would call her back. The holiday company would call her back. The bank would call her back.
Baggy set The Goddess in action. She decided to start with the kitchen. It seemed a logical place to start, especially since it was the worst room of the lot. Seven hours later, she had finally got a half-decent kitchen. Baggy felt a bit dizzy. It occurred to Clever Bird that it was gone six and Baggy had eaten nothing all day. Time for a salad. Only the kitchen to finish off and the entire rest of the house to do. Sorry Wessles and Joey.............
P.S. The solicitor didn't call back. The holiday company didn't call back. The bank didn't call back. Seriously, what is the matter with everyone?
