1) Family here and the house feels (and looks) lived in again!

2) Grandchildren, their chat, their smiles, their cuddles and being allowed to play cars with equality (almost), 3 years old is VERY precise in it's niceties!

3) Zebra voluntarily gave Opa one of his cherished party ring iced biscuits at lunchtime, bless his little heart!.

4) DD2, Zebra and Oreo all having much fun on the 'carpet swing' at the arboretum.....we have photographic proof!!!

5) Zebra pushing Opa on the carpet swing having just as much fun as when he was in it .....I have photographic evidence of that too!!!

Good morning!

Not read back yet, but did notice KK comment about DD's'Young Adult' books. DS1 was an avid reader and we have inherited his Harry Potter box set and read all the Cherub books. I recommend Rooftoppers and The Dark Lord trilogy too!

Monday

1. No students at school, so v quiet.
2. Dentist appt. Not a pleasure, but, no fillings and just needed a clean and polish!:j
3. HM burgers for tea and trimmings.
4. Cream donuts are on offer in MrT, so me and DH Had one each. No one else at home likes them.
5. 2 episodes of Madmen Box set watched.

DH said I had the look of someone who didn't want to go to sleep, because then it will be tomorrow. He knows me well! Hope you all have nice days.
