This is the brief version of the continuing story of this thing I call my life.

We have had to up root and move to Westgate to help mother Young sort through and get her house empty of 30 yrs of hoarding, trying to whittle her worldly possetions down to 22 boxes and some furniture, though that's not looking promising as it's a 21 room house each room could easily fill 5 or so boxes.These are very large boxes by the way. Hubbys attempting to salvage the lost lands they call the garden/Yard years of neglect and feeding wildlife such as rabbits has reduced what used to be a putting green lawn into a rutted mess of weeds.We only have months to accomplish this feat or else all could be lost as the economy and housing markets down the tubes....Mom and Dad young should of sold up and downsized about 20 years ago.Our dogs do thier best to be good but when stuck in a room due to a manic terrier who would like to eat them being around..they do get in a bit of mischief. I have had to be rid of my fish, so all aquariums are now drained and strained of fish, though I have found one staple sized baby which came with me until grown enough to get to the fish store and not become food to other fish.JoJo parrot now lives in Weardale too. My jobs gone, I suspect hubby's jobs gone..and we pretty much are at the mercy of the gods as Mother Young just isn't capable of doing any of this herself.I have to go for now, sending my love to all, will try to stop in again soon with any updates..but my times limited for now.
