Hi all; I'm in again, many thanks FCC; realistically, may only manage Level 1 and maybe 2, as I have Dilly Doglet here this week.:T
She's already being quite demanding – wanting to play with her toy r*t (sorry Toots):D all the time. She also needs to go outside quite frequently – I think her bladder isn't as strong as it used to be. So of course, my attention will be focused on her.;)
Mr LW is working from home today, so I shan't get anything much done today, just have to catch up if I can tomorrow. And I have to do a ton of baking tomorrow..... So maybe I'll catch up on Wednesday.... Hmmm, you can see where this is going, can't you?:cool:
Happy Birthday to Cyclingyorkie's DS:bdaycake:
I haven't signed up for the spending diary, as I already do one:o – I have all our income and expenditure on Excel spreadsheets, been doing it like this for years, and it's always worked for us (which reminds me, must log on to the bank and check that my pension has gone in.)
Regarding wills and funerals – Mr LW and I discussed these when we first got married; we have “mirror wills” - whoever goes first, the survivor gets everything – and we have our funeral instructions detailed there also. I think if it's all dealt with early on, you don't have a mad panic when something happens.
Nixie aww, the chicky is sooooo cute!:oin summer it'll be fine.. nappy and a t-shirt and we are dressed!
Must go and do my Brain Training now, as Mr LW will be finishing in 20 mins, and will require my attention.;)If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0 -
Blimey pigpen, I can't believe your baby is 7 months already!
