    Lovely photos, sexymouse. Thank you for letting us share your happiness.

    Got a batch of ginger twinks cooling.
    Did a couple of sewing/mending jobs. Pleasure at getting them done followed by annoyance when I worked out how much time I had spent thinking 'I must do that' and how much less time it had taken to do it:mad:

    Bits of blue showing between the clods, but not sure what the temp is, def lower than yesterday.

    sexymouse Wow gorgeous. Looks like you had an amazing time. Hope my sister got some similar photos or she's even more dead meat than she is already. She gets back today. Oh to be a fly on the wall when my mother gets her hands on her :rotfl:

    Went out with DH for lunch. Lovely - weather glorious. Have just decluttered part of the dog (needs one to hold him and one to wield the scissors) He should be a lot more comfortable now I have taken off all the feathers (no not the bird kind:p) and some of his tail fur. First attempt to do it ourselves and I don't think its half bad. He's still talking to us as well.

    Not expecting divers back until about 9pm so am doing something quick they can eat on the hoof while filling copious cylinders and generally faffing. 6am wake up tomorrow to go further afield. Joy!

    Hopefully this link will take you to our wedding photos.
    Sexymouse - you looked fabulous and you both look really happy.

    Vanilla - massive hugs hun. I admire your strength of character, how you deal with everything amazes me x

    Not the best of days here but am plodding on with the utility room muck out and filling the WM and line drying as the day goes by. Have also done a food shop and spent a ridiculous amount of money again, most of which still needs putting away.

    Think I need another cuppa anyone got anything nice I can add to it.

    I'm in this week, after a bit of a hectic weekend followed by a loooovely migraine. Yuk! Been pottering about off list re-potting tomatoes/chillies/peppers, and going at the Utility room cleaning lots.
    Off to find listy.... May be some time!

    Textiles, languages, travel and a lovely home are not stupid things to want. You have immediate family's support.Appreciate what I've achieved so far. Other people's opinion of me is none of my business.

    Hi there - been away for the best part of 2 weeks and am now back in action (or not!)

    Sexymouse, your pictures are stunning and you both look so happy. Many congratulations.

    I'm in for the week - will do what I can as I can as it's carnage here at the moment :eek:! Like the others, I am loving today's list though I have done some stuff.

    Thanks everyone for the hugs and some of the suggestions may be tried yet. ;)

    I decluttered abit of a snooze and feeling no better for it, woke to find hubby had lit the fire.....!!!!!!, so now the house is roasting...:mad:

    Utility room has been decluttered of rubbish, washing nearly all finished. Suppose i should go brush/mop the floor and then make a start on the back hall. Must get up into the attic too.

    Dw been loaded and is on, another load of washing on the line and all dry clothes brought in.

    Sexymouse what lovely pics, you look amazing...
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.
    :j :j
