    I had a blooming marvellous morning at my friends nursery fundraiser, helping her out in the cafe:j:j:j

    Very tired now though, not used to it obviously, to think I used to do it for hours everyday:rotfl:

    Hi,

    Since my last post i have

    Been to collect some poppy seeds from a very nice freecycler
    Planted said seeds
    Put another load of washing out
    Cleaned out the rabbits
    Did a tiny bit of weeding
    Painted with Ds2
    Sat & enjoyed the sunshine
    Taken off nail varnish

    We're back in now waiting for the shopping to come. I could do with having a shower now so my hair can dry naturally before i straighten it as the rabbits chewed throught the cord on my hairdryer.:mad: My straightners will do it from wet but it takes ages and my hair goes poofy.:cool: But, if i have a shower now i'll feel manky by later on. I think i'll wash it now and have a shower later.:o

    I AM EVIL... and I love it...

    DS3 is hysterical... I have filled a binbag with broken toys and sweet wrappers.. 4 boxes of toys are reduced to 2 boxes and I have a pile of stuff for charity shop and one for nursery.. Why did they have pink dressing up shoes??!! I have a full basket of washing too.. just from the boys floor.. gggrrrr... piglets!

    Happily.. one of the emptied boxes was from my room so that is one less thing.. and I have a binbag of bedding which is being sent to my sister.. and her CoD's just died so we have rehomed one of those too!!

    My HHC was slightly extended!!

    Anyone in for another HHC? 3:45-4:15??

    I have 5 more boxes to filter through that are hogging my landing which I am wanting to paint!

    Half of one of the new beds dug... it may have been rotovated, but it's still clay! Once I've dug it over, I then need to dig in some topsoil ... I've also planted one climbing rose, as it's the only plant I can actually decide where to put (well, there are some others, but I really need to wait till my dad's been back and done the guttering on the shed and helped me put the posts up ;)). As the bed between the patio and the fence doesn't actually need digging (it's all new topsoil) I really should try to get that done, but none of the plants I've currently got are going to go in there. Hopefully the bed I'm digging today will be planted tomorrow and that will take quite a few of them.

    Need to find my camera so i can take pictures...
