I see what you mean though. My answers will be very different to the last census

Yes, it certainly makes you think about what you were doing 10 years ago and the good and bad that's come between.

On our census there were 3 people here last time, this time there are 3 but not the same 3 and I HATE filling in marital status on anything these days. In my mind I am still married but I was a good girl and put the technically correct answer.
DH visit, leaving the best till last

Will be thinking of you this pm AnW'sMum and hoping his daffs are in bloom

Cracking on with another couple of HHCs...

Grateful - I think everyone has pretty much covered it re. the wedding... and I'm sure your friend will understand.

Slightly jealous of GBs reflexology.

You wouldn't be if you'd been on the receiving end of it. It hurt but hopefully is working...

Love this one

Second batch of pancakes made up - a layered 'cake' with tomato sauce, ricotta and mozzarella in between. In a cake tin, ready to go into the oven. One load of washing on the line, another in the machine. So need to go and make up leek, prawn and cream sauce for the last batch of savoury pancakes before my next meeting - and maybe move some more laundry around. Then all I'll have to do before people arrive is S&S the kitchen and living room, light the fire, lay the table and make up a couple of batches of batter for pudding

So I might even get some work done

Kitchen floor swept but not mopped. That is a man's job today. I sat on my rocking chair to sweep the kitchen floor.

Yeah another family not looking forward to health questions on the census - when the last one was completed DD1 was a happy and healthy 10 yearold.....

We also have the DLA renewal to do. She is much better than she was - and she doesn't need as much help so the benefits will be reduced.(And that is right and proper!) But she is NOT well enough to work. And won't be for a while yet....

OH came home for lunch as he had a very stressful morning, which wasn't hep by work phoning constantly whilst he was here:mad::mad:. Although he did find time to call the vets and I happy to report that Dogbot is recovering well and can be picked up for 4pm.

Happy flying, hugs to all who need or want them

Had a great time in the garden, lawn mower gently coaxed into cutting the front grass for the first time - oh the smell especially mixed in with the wild garlic which is growing all through it.

Quick cuppa being gulped and then school run, oh promised to take the scooter so best scoot.

Hugs for all those finding it difficult to fill in the forms. Just think of how interesting it will be for generations to come when we are somebody's family history.

Know where you are coming from but I just filled ours in online and I can't say that the questions were too bad, there is no tick box for WOLFIE under religion though :D

Like I said to Poohbear, I was just being a wuss.;)
:DI did have to write in under "other" for religion.... I wasn't sure what Mr LW was going to put for his, if anything, and I was delighted when he filled in the same as me!:T No prompting whatsoever from me, honestly, he's decided for himself.:o
