Hi everyone, can I join? I have been reading and lurking on this thread for a while. Aside from me there is OH (dubboy), DS who is 3 in September and our retired greyhound who is a bit dippy. Had a lie-in this morning till bout 9am as OH has gone to work. Not doing much at the moment still in my pyjamas, but will be taking the dog out shortly.
In the words of my DS duddles (meaning cuddles) to you all.

morning all, slept in really late today i got up at 9.20 and OH 9.45 :eek: , still we must have needed it. Its really hot here already, sun is not out yet, but its muggy and HOT.

Going to take the dog out for a long walk today will take a picnic and lots of water, then later on I am going to plant some of my winter veggies in the garden, a squirel had dug up my beans :mad: so might have to get some more in.

OH and I are having crab and scallops with salad and nice bread for tea, dd will be having fish fingers, beans and bread, ( she has a proper meal out with her dad on a saturday)

Got OH work clothes on a boil wash, will hang them out in a while, he has been working on a roof all week, and is the colour of a conker, where as I am as white as ever, the joys of working in an office :rolleyes:

Hugs to smoky, candy, jayward, and all in need have a dood day folks xx

Welcome dubgirl:D

I soooo agree stefe, much too hot, and humid with it:o And I have to tidy the front garden, in the sunA neighbour has put me forward for a beautiful garden award, so now I've got to weed the damn thing:rotfl: Lovely thought but I wish she hadn't:rolleyes: I have no idea when the *inspection* will be so that's an ongoing chore. I'd just feel so bad for her (and me!) for it to be in a state.

I've stripped the beds and the washing is on the line already:A Salad and something for dinner, I am not standing over a hot stove or oven for any length of time today;)

Sorry, my mushy brain is fried in this heat, so congrats to the celebrating, and hugs to those not celebrating. Mioliere breathe deeply and relax:D
:hello: mrs mix, hope you're OK:D

Bye, CM x

:hello: Good morning!

Welcome dubgirl

Penny_pincher lovely to have you back! Hope your holiday went well and that you feel less exhausted later.

Churchmouse - how lovely to be nominated for a beautiful garden award! I won't ask you to come and sort my garden out though - there's such a thing as stretching friendship too far

HUGGLES (and duddles!) to everyone whether you need one or not.

Stefejb - I don't know whether to commiserate on your loss of a weekend on your own, or be glad for you because of your DD's unexpected arriival - I think the second one, as I know you'll enjoy having her around.

AussieLass - hope you will be feeling better by the time you read this, take care of yourself (((HUGS)))

Smoky (((HUGS)))

Off to Bluewater this morning so I can try on some very pretty Scholl sandals I spotted yesterday when i was there - I couldn't stop to try them on at the time as I was with DD2 and DGCs. Seems funny to think that when I was first married Scholl sandals were just the ones with the wooden insole! Will have to go to baker's and butcher's too, before going to B'water. Our baker's do a lovely multiseed loaf which tastes lovely and is Low GI so ideal for DH, and I like it too. Not sure about trying to make one in the BM as all the seeds may make it too heavy for the motor, and I wouldn't be able to do the kneading by hand so we're stuck with buying bread again atm:rolleyes:

Well, must go as DH has finally come down ready to start his day:D

Please be careful not to get sunburnt! :eek:

best wishes

ivyleaf xx :wave:

Morning Everyone

I'm back, hope everyone is ok. Not had a chance to catch up yet.

We had a lovely time but now its back to reality with a bump. I appear to have got the entire campsites washing with us and have about 6 loads to do. Happily the house is clean and tidy I think it will be takeaway tonight after we've been to visit my dad and in-laws.

Have a good day everyone

Hello all !
Lovely sunny day again and thankfully, not as 'smothering' as it felt yesterday. Still,once it cooled down managed to sit out in the garden for a bit with OH when the kids had gone out............bliss it was.
Bit too warm for housework (any excuse............lol) so I'll be doing not a lot !

Have a good day, stay cool, and hugs (((((((((((:o )))))))))))) to all those who need them

AussieLass

I just checked the weather report for the UK. Yes, well I see you are having a couple of mild days. :rolleyes:

CM Love the garden statue. When do you get time for gardening?
ivyleaf I'm not sick darling. But I must admit I do feel a bit better after my big glass of red. Happy shopping at Bluewater.
dubgirl :wave:
Snowy & Shez Have a fun lunch.

Well off to have a bit of a surf & then go to bed. Enjoy the rest of the day. Byeeeeeee

Hot hot hot! I'll get out into the garden soon, do a little light gardening I think. OH woke me up this morning with a bacon sandwich and a cuppa! How lovely. I've hoovered downstairs then OH traipsed mud into the conservatory - he's going to sort that out:D). My kitchen is tidy, I was thinking of baking today but not sure I can bear to put the oven on. Could try the remoska i suppose, will keep thinking about that one. I've also washed some of the cushion covers from the "new" suite and they're on the line - I'll wait till they're dried, ironed and (hopefully) back on the cushions before putting the rest in, as the tag said dry-clean only so I've taken a bit of a risk. I reckon they'll be ok though, they seem to have come out the same size!!;)

OH is currently using the power washer on the deck - looks like it will take ages but really needs doing as it's dangerously slippy when wet. He's also trying to talk me into getting a new table & chairs set - tbh we do need one as ours is old and too big for the deck really. So I'll probably cave!

Have a good day everyone, you can all have a hug xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
