My nanna nearly stopped my heart this morning.

I was pottering around tidying up and listening to Linkin Park, admittedly very loud, turned around and there was nanna standing in the middle of the living room.

I scrambled to turn off the music and tv. Sat, explained why we hadn't been up, explained I couldn't have the doors open because of the animals but all the windows were open to help the stuffiness. Had a nice talk and made the mistake of mentioning planting the new lawn, so she wanted to see. We walked through the kitchen and she got the 'nanna look' when she saw the dishes hadn't been done.

Came back inside and she smacked my arm and told me to wash up. Then she made for the front door, looked around and said that I'd have plenty to do today to get tidied up. Then suggested that we go out for the day on Saturday.

It's just so classically her that all I could do was laugh. And immediately wash up as soon as she left.

Unrelated. There's nothing so pointed as a cat licking their empty bowl and giving you big cat eyes.

ETA: After nearly half an hour of me realising I couldn't post because my journal date is set to July, am I misremembering that there was a LJ bug about this problem?
