Morning all
Did practically nothing flyingwise yesterday but had quite a successful day.
I went to see the stonemasons. Miss A and I had been talking about what we want for DH and had penned some ideas down. You would not believe the amount of styles you can choose from! Anyway I took our ideas and they are going to show us how they will look before we finally decide. I asked if we could put DH's initial on the corner and when the time comes, intertwine mine just like we had on our wedding stationary. I really hope they can do this. We will know in a few days, we will all go back and see them to agree the final layout and with a bit of luck it may all be done for Christmas

Morning ladies,
Just checking in and trying to catch up with the thread before I go off for work. I have my laptop with me so I will try and keep up with it before tomorrow, otherwise I will spend my time trying to catch up rather than flying. Seeing as my parents are coming in 3 days and I have to do everything tomorrow I can't really afford to do that. :eek:MFW 2025 No. 7 £1931.07/£2700

Morning lovelies! :wave:
Zoe hugs for you and poor Lewis, hope is little fingers aren't too painful for him x
What a day yesterday, did the work thing then when I came back noticed a wound on Lily cat's right side, thought it was a tick at first (having never seen one :rolleyes: ) but went with my instinct and took her to the vets, one operation a couple of stitches and £100 later it wasn't a tick :rolleyes: she's also got a collar on to keep her off the stitches and can't go out for two weeks, it's driving her batty and me lol. So, not much got done yesterday other than a bit tidy up.
list for today:- work 11 - 5 ish so will try and get a few bits I want done this morning even if I don't feel like it the place will only get worse if I don't keep on top of it. First on the list though GET PET INSURANCE I could kick myself for procrastinating.

make beds
open windows to air
see to cat
unload DW
do dishes (not enough for DW)
S&S kitchen

hoover through
