Good Afternoon
My silly idea is even better, just involves emulsioning, and painting the balustrades of a house in Spain . . . While DH is handy at most things, he detests decorating with a passion.
In clarification of my comments to Candy yesterday, re changing mobile phone no., I know in the past she has had abusive texts from her DD when she wants to get her own way, and this was to stop her being able to do this, she would still have a landline, and maybe CG's DP would allow CG's DD to use his mobile in case of emergency, and he could just delete the abusive posts without CG having to be upset by them.;)
Cranky our DS always awoke at 5.45/6am due to the fact he had to so he could get to the CM on our way to work, He does sleep later now, but not a real late riser, and if you are posting him off anywhere send him this way:D
Well yesterday I gave in and rang for an appointment for my arm/shoulder. I had been trying to ignore it but it was affecting sleeping as I could not lay on my right side. I had had something similar over 10 years ago, and had an injection which fixed it. So went off to the see orthopaedic Dr. and he had X-ray and Ultrasound done, which confirmed a couple of enlarged tendons in my shoulder, and an injection, and the pain is already considerably less, hopefully overnight it will calm down altogether. I did tackle the ironing mountain the other day, outside, will try to add a piccy to FB, which really wound the arm shoulder up, which brought it to a head.
Just found a nice butchers shop out here inside a(nother) supermarket, they had liver and kidnies too, which I had not found here before, and some really lean looking stewing meat, so will be putting that in the SC another day. Tonight will be a Brunch, as I really fancy one. Tomorrow we are eating out (again
)
