Smokie knew something was going on out of the ordinary. Did you get scratched? LOL! They can do that for sure.

Washing China to pack sounds like a job I wouldn’t like to do right now (or anytime)!! I don’t understand how you are able to do all that....may the Lord be with you!

I thought maybe your main job would be kitty-sitting! I used to display all my china and silver tea set and other silver small things in an open buffet. After years of cleaning silver and washing the dishes, I tired of all the cleaning, etc, especially the silver and I packed it all away.

Take it easy if you can....(((Hugs)))

I am not working hard...just helping here and there..I am not doing any packing.
It took an hour to get her..I had her 3 times..but she was too strong ..I have a gash on my leg and bruises and scratches...She was terrified...My others were no problem at all.

I am not fond of washing china and crystal either, but I do like the results. I also have my crystal and some china, along with other decorative pieces in our dining room on open shelves in what used to be a floor to ceiling bookcase, 8 ft wide. Some of the crystal and china 'n stuff on the upper shelves don't get washed (or used!) as often as the stuff in reach, but it's about time for me to 'shine' it all again!

Meg, hope you don't push yourself too hard. :(
