Good morning all!
And yes, it is a good morning - I have just completed my tax return. Thanks for the nudge, Dusty. This is my last time of having to include self-employment, as I closed my business down last September and now just do voluntary work. Even the short tax form took me 3 days to conquer, but it's done now *grins* and ready to pop in the post when I go out.
If the rain keeps off I might even get some gardening done this afternoon. Our friends liked my wonderful display of "ornamental grasses" under the bird table but I think I ought to weed them out before they self-seed and the whole place becomes a testing ground for Weetabix.
Not much else done in the house, but it's still clean and tidy from Monday. A cup of coffee is next on my list.

Back from my cycle ride, exhausted. Osteo is convinced it will help my legs so I am cycling up the steepest and poshest street our side of town, being very nosey as I am supposed to go in the hardest gear which means mega slow and then free wheeling back down to repeat the process.
DS1 has cut the grass in the back for me and stripped his bed so that is in the WM.
Going to make a cup of tea and then do HH in my Rabbi's garden before lunch.
Sports Day is cancelled - DS3 will not be happy, hope cricket is on later.

embb you must have sent that rain across as it was dry here until about 15 mins ago, queue benny hill moment getting my washing in!
Well I've made massive progress in the kitchen, it looks much better but a bit left to do. I'm going to give my room a miss apart from clean linen, too big to tackle today especially with piddly paws so I'll do the Wednesday list instead.One day I might be more organised...........

Hello all.:wave:
I'm bathrooming today, with it being Wednesday;:cool: but I shall try and find a frog I can eat unaided (I think everything on the list currently needs Mr LW's input):o and will go through my saved emails to see if any can be deleted.;)
I did get the bath towels washed and dried outdoors this morning – fetched them in, dry, when I brought Dilly back from her walk, and two minutes later, it poured with rain. Lucky, eh?:T
Helen jelly happy anniversary to you and DH!:beer:
We enjoyed Men In Black 3 last night - talk about drive a coach and horses through the time-travel paradox, though!:D Mr LW wants it on DVD when it's available - I'm sure he'll get his wish, as I currently have over £60 credit with Amazon.:DIf your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0 -
