O/S Daily Sunday 3 December 2017

Morning all,


cold and drizzly here, no washing on the go as I have run out of washing tablets, OH will do a dash to the shop later, no point doing a big shop atm while we are in such a mess.


Today I need to re-oil the wooden counters which should be the last coat, then I can clean the cupboards out and start to put things back in.


We still have no cooker so not sure what dinner will be tonight, might get some big jackets and cook them in the mw and finish off in the log burner.


Back to work tomorrow so I need to get as much done today as possible.


Right better get on have good days all xx

Morning all

DH and I got up later than usual after staying up watching tv. Mince is in the slow cooker for a cottage pie tonight. not much else planned except for a bit of ironing and maybe I will bake a Victoria sandwich if DH is very nice to me,

DH has zipped to the shops for a few bits and pieces as he wants to replenish the nuts hanging on the cherry tree. I need a new dustpan and brush after DS used the indoor one to clear up some broken glass at the end of our drive the other day.

Well hugs to poorlies and worried. Holly H hope your leg improves TA hope you feel better today. Lainey and HH hugs.

Enjoy your Sunday folks.

Morning all, Happy Sunday.
Yesterdays present wrapping didn't go as planned, it took 4hrs to wrap the DGC's pressies and sort DD's hamper basket. Mind you I was aided and abetted by Mr Fix It who seemed to think he was working for the gift wrap section of Harr*ds. He was so meticulous, unfortunately the DGC will just rip the paper off in 20 seconds :rotfl:. Anyway I didn't get round to posting the cards, I treated myself to a lavender bath instead .
This morning I have prepped the veg, put the hoover over the dining room to pick up the debris from the wrapping and put a load in the WM. I watched a cat play chase with a squirrel around my lawn earlier, the cat was on a hiding to nothing, I'm sure the squirrel was an Olympic athlete :rotfl:. Nothing much else will be done today as Dad is coming over, although I may try and post my neighbours cards when he goes home.
NMLC thanks for the start off
Tru thanks for the carol, glad you are feeling better.
LaineyT plenty of hugs heading your way today.
JackieO belated birthday wishes to your DD
Floss belated birthday wishes to your OH
Cranky and Holly take things easy and rest your legs.
Hester like the "children wrangling" , could be a new career :rotfl:.
Take care and sending hugs all round.

Hi everyone
I've had a nice lazy afternoon with my laptop and The Sunday Times. Been browsing for books for eldest DD and also at childrens books as she said she will invite her friend over who has a little boy, whilst shes at home for Christmas and I'd like to buy him something. Shes booked to come home on 15th December but hasn't decided how long for yet. She's in her final year at uni and has masses of work to do including designing 125 outfits and a 12000 word dissertation! She desperately need a bit of rest time and mine and her granny's cooking! Oh and cuddles from the cats.
Youngest DD has booked a week's holiday in Gran Canaria with a friend from 15th December - she has almost 4 weeks off work. And me....well I'm at work until the 22nd.
I have found my Christmas cards and paper...but haven't actually done anything with them yet!
It's pitch black here already so I'm going to go and shut all the blinds and put the oven on for tea. I have some cooked chicken defrosted and will do roast veg and Yorkshire pudding to go with it...nice and easy.
