Hi there! Just posting whilst watching Wimbledon - anyone twigged I like tennis yet! Tried to post first thing but couldn't log on for some reason.

Anyway, today I have: washed cats dishes and fed him, made breakfast and cleared up dishes (OH emptied DW this am), S&S bathroom and kitchen, made bed, tidied bedroom, sorted more clean washing, then, did big shop for sick friend, cleaned his bathroom, kitchen, lounge and made bed, also washed up and took out rubbish etc. Stayed for an hour for company & had coffee there, then left him with his lunch ready to eat.

Got home, OH made us eggs on toast (he works from home) so I can concentrate on tennis!!

No work today as I'd arranged days off around Wimbledon, and place not too bad after big clean before we went away two weeks ago.

Bye for now and 'Happy birthday' to dancemum and all those others who are celebrating. Pigpen, that was a really lovely photo and did you ever get to look at I Want One of Those' for birthday pressies?

PS Pouring down here ALL day and garden flooded - again.

Rowan.. No, I am looking today.. I had to sort DD1's present.. DD2 has her bday on the 26th and is getting some Batman Converse.. she is easy! I have got him battlestar galactica complete box set.. with a cylon action figure.. see geekland!

I am so pleased I have got the replacement wheels on the pushchair.. I am so sad lol..

I got a large bag from clothes for cash so I am filled that with the ebay stuff that has been on a few times and not sold.. it isn't making me any money sat in a box so it may as well go for a little bit.

Haven't read through yet, hope everyone is ok.

Tots got me up at daft o clock this am so went to mr a at 7.15 all was well. Came out at 8 rain was torrential, thunder, lightening, two toddlers is a metal shopping trolley :eek:

Got them and shopping into car and keys vanished. Got out of car and checked underneath, back to trolley park, another drenching. Keys were sat on passenger seat :mad: not stressed at all.

Brother and family came to ours, too wet even for ducks so no pond visit. Said our goodbyes, that will probably be it until next year now

Kids packaged off to outlaws, I have been bargain hunting. Got myself some swimmies (sale in bhs) and bras, and some half price happyland toys (sale in Argos) to put away for Christmas YIKES IT'S ONLY JULY.

LOL.

Pigpen - I want the Battlestar Galactica boxed set! Please!!!

I hope all those Special 10's, flying in their gold or silver catsuits look as good as me - think Caprica Six (not!!!).

Well, after LittleMissHappy looking for the source of a horrible smell, and me suggesting it might be a decomposing mouse - I had noticed a smell in the lounge for two days, but have had bad throat and sniffles, so thought it could be my sense of smell playing up.

This aft it has been awful so we've just moved the couch (smell seemed to come from there) and there was a poor (dead) mouse, all curled up in a bed made from our carpet. Eew! Smell is awful even after cleaning it and using discinfectant and spraying febreeze type stuff! Yuk, have relocated to bedroom and time for another cuppa I think.

Good vibes to all - rain slowing here but lower half of garden submerged.
