Not been able to do any machine work since my ancient Singer gave up the ghost last year.

Almost bought one on Ebay a few weeks ago, and mentioned it when my mum called me that weekend- she'd bought me one for christmas!

Shall be waiting for the postman this week!

I have ME, and have bad reactions to adrenaline based anaesthetics. My teeth have been crumbling faster than can be repaired (given my variable health and the wait between appointments.

After an uphill battle with My GP I have finally got a letter through from the special care and sedation unit in Edinburgh. Hopefully once I’m given my first appointment and be assessed, my great big list of stuff to be done can be done in the blink of an eye.

Peppermint essencial oil is like mouse kryptonite.

I put drops of the oil on the carpet/skirting board where the mice tend to travel, and on cotton wool to put in any mouse holes/ little crannies. I also make up my own kitchen surface spray with 10 drops of peppermint essential oil, a drop of washing up liquid, a little bleach and warm water.

maybe freshen up the cotton wool every few months and around the skirtings. In the last yr I have maybe seen 1 mouse, which was my own lazyness I hadn’t topped up the peppermint.

Makes a change from finding 4 baby mice dancing on the kitchen surfaces lol
