So, on Friday night, we had to go back over to Leeds; the whole family - me, M****, A****** and Archie. Friday night I went out for a few drinks with Lisa, and then today . . . Shortly after waking up, M**** was like, "So, are you going to be lovely and get me and A****** some breakfast? A****** would love some kind of smoothie, but not with honey in, as he can't do honey yet." I went to Fat Chops and got me and M**** a sandwich each and A****** a banana/mango/lime/yogurt smoothie, or something like that. Later on, when M**** was upstairs and A****** and I were in the lounge, I tried giving A****** a bit more of the smoothie, and he seemed to be enjoying it. M**** shouted me, so I went upstairs, leaving A****** in the middle of the rug snd the smoothie, in its carton, a metre and half away from him. I was barely a minute upstairs, but when I got back down to the lounge, A****** had rolled over to the smoothie, and was now covered in it, but also lying in a smoothie-based puddle. On our lovely rug. In his hands, he had hold of the plastic lid from the carton and was now licking it clean. I took the lid from A****** (he wasn't happy about that) and gave A****** to M**** whilst I cleaned the rug. Of course, I wasn't angry with him . . . kind of impressed, really. Anyway . . . Back to the house . . . there wasn't really much to do (in terms of painting/decorating/whatever), but I finally got round to removing all that glue from the ground floor windows. Glue? Well, there used to be these horrible criss-cross (diamond-shaped) lines of lead glued onto the window. I've no idea why. This was something the previous owners must have done. Anyway, I removed the lead itself a couple of years back, probably quite soon after I moved in. But the glue . . . well, I needed a ladder for that, but just never got round to it. With the . . . with the. Damn it. I began that sentence a while ago now. I've just been on the phone. Something about windows. Yeah. So . . . the windows on the ground floor of my house (and basement level as well) are all sparkling clean now.
