    Off to strim the garden and then mow the lawns. DS1 has done the neighbours so the lawnmower is free, he is going to make some more paper bricks for me and the hopefully his pal is coming over, more like my adopted son! OH is hoping to build a shed around the back so we can get some of the machinery bits and bobs out of the house!

    Finished the books and submitted the VAT return which is a relief to get it done and know how much needs to be paid. Also increased our earnings slightly from the business. Thinking about putting that against one of the cards.

    DD1 has mowed the lawn, DS1 is going to strim shortly once OH has put some new strimmer line in. I have pegged out 2 loads of washing (includind DDs bedding) helped put large paddling pool away and made paper bricks.

    I strimmed the lawn as DS1 conveniently forgot. OHs shed building is coming along nicely and managed to get some of his stock piles into it and I nearly have a dining room back. Just have to sort my stuff out and then it will be ready for next weekend when we have family staying.

    Just lost my reply....grrrrrr

    Washing machine on overtime as the weather is great and its got the Ds's bedding in so that should go back on later. OH had to nip to B&Q last night to get a few bits to finish off the shed. That's ok as it will come out of the business and will be reclaimable.

    Hoping to get some compost onto the fruit beds. DS1 dug up the last of the carrots. It has been the best crop ever for me and they have grown really well. Still got courgettes, beetroot, sewdes, leek and sprouts in. i don't think the red cabbage is going to make it as it has taken a hammering with the caterpillers this year. In fact the little sods keep invading the bedrooms.

    OH has been working all weekend and he has managed to have works van all last week and hopefully next week so that will help with fuel costs.

    Better get out of these pjs and get on.

    2 loads of washing on the line and 1 cupboard cleared and stuff thrown away. OH and Ds1 have only fallen out once on the shed building so far and its looking pretty good. Off to tackle another cupboard.

    Hello.ewe! How are the little baaalings?

    manged to nearly bottom the dinig room yesterday and cleaned out 1 kitchen cupboard. So feeling quite smug. Just got the rest of the tip to sort, oh and I did all the ironing before finishing the last of OHs bills.

    Feeling tired today but must keep going. Boys are not impressed as cows have now invaded 'their' field. I must admit I did only peer at them over the fence as they (the cows) were very spooky. I'm not scared of them just a little wary as they don't know me. Billy bull looked ok and my horse was eatingm every last blade of grass as if his life depended on it, before the pesky cows got to it.

    Best try and catch my breath and get something productive done.

    Ive been doing the same today funny enough. Hypno has shamed me into decluttering:rotfl: Anyway got rid of loads of clothes and hemmed up one pair of pjs and another pair of comfy pants. Hate sewing but dont want to wreck them by wairing them too long! Cleared out one set of drawers and even wrapped a xmas pressie:T
    Know what you mean re cows, our dog is terrified of them, we walk through a field on the way to the school bus when its dry and of course when there are no cows about!

    We'll all be asleep by 9pm:rotfl:
