Hi everyone. Hope no one has suffered because of the storms. It was raining here this morning but not for long. Have done quite a bit today. I have a busy week and the kitchen is being decorated on Thursday. Went for a walk after lunch down the woods. I have not been down these ones before and they are so near me. My friend who has a dog told me about them and that the council had laid paths. I really enjoyed it and found a lake. A man sitting there told me there is deer and lots of wildlife. Glad I had my walking boots on as some parts were very muddy.
Have hoovered upstairs and down.
2 loads of washing done
Clean washing put away.
Shredding done.

Please, call me Potty
Love your avvie, btw .... very cute
OK Potty, thank you about the avvie, that's my Beffy Boo - the one who headbutted my nose yesterday (which is much improved thank you all).
She's now fast asleep on the settee because I dragged her out for 1.5 hours delivering leaflets! It wasn't one of my wisest moves and I won't take her again when I do the rest. She spotted every cat in every garden and slowed me up terrifically!
Lil-me - that's top news about little M.

I had wondered that, it's a possibility but i'm not all that artistic, if they were for girls would be ok, I can do flowers! but much harder for boys!!Mum to gorgeous baby boy born Sept 2010:j0 -

Now there's a lovely idea....I wonder if I could find one nearby their house and take him. I could do a kind of voucher for his birthday to say we'll go. I don't see half enough of him these days so it would be a lovely thing to do. He's 6 so big enough to do a nice job!Mum to gorgeous baby boy born Sept 2010:j0 -
greenbee - hope the gardening is going ok, doesn't look like you've been on...what's the name of those bags again? Had a look in alders today but couldn't remember and there wasn't anything similar there!
Dog walked (it was getting dark so I felt safe to go... luckily she's highly trained and always disappears into thick undergrowth where everything will wash away/biodegrade).
Hall/kitchen/utility/stairs hoovered, DW filled and set off. Next week will need a deep clean of pretty much the whole house :rolleyes: plus a bit of freecycling if I have the energy.
Just going to have a quick shower, then a cup of tea (the dog has to have food at tea time during the winter, or she gets too thin... at least, that's what my dad tells me, personally I think she's spoilt!), and then start getting things sorted out for supper (roast chicken, roast veg etc) so that we don't eat too late.0 -
Evening All
THANK YOU all so much for the congratulations and best wishes.:A:A:A:A:A
Supposed to finish work at 1pm but didn't leave till 3.30pm, because nobody had booked staff :mad:. So no more of the list has got done as dived to the shops for bread and milk, then have had a cuppa and DH walked in from work too.
So going to have a bath and a S&S of the whole house:rolleyes: :rolleyes: and then have pea whack for tea followed by the x factor. The twins must go, can't stand it anymore lol:rotfl:
Have only skimmed the thread so big hugs to all and will see u all on the next thread, as must get a wriggle on.

rach - http://www.chinabeasts.com/default.asp - but they don't look like a cheap option.
My day turned out rather differently to planned - phone call at 11am to say DS2 had hurt his shoulder at rugby. Rushed over there, to find him in an ambulance, and followed to the hospital - he'd dislocated his shoulder. Hours of waiting, x-rays, painkillers, manipulation, more x-rays...then home at 3.30. He's okay now, has another appointment for tomorrow, which I think OH will have to do, and then off sports for six weeks.
Consequently, I still haven't finished my planning.... but I'm going to do some right now! If all else fails on Thursday, they'll have to watch a DVD!!It is never too late to become what you were always intended to be0
