Mr F went off to work at 5 am :eek: I usually get up to make him breakfast and see him off but I slept through the whole thing this morning Poor Mr F. He is going to try and come home Tuesday evening because it's my birthday on Wednesday

I did a little more comping in the morning yesterday and then Mr F's truck needed a run so we went to the shopping estate. Not too much spent:

• sand - for mending the front step. 3 bricks had come loose but Mr F has put that right now
• a tension rod for hanging a net at the back door. I like to have this open during the summer but it's a highway for flies
• spare curtain hooks. I pinched a few from the existing curtains to hang the new ones in the guest room so those need replacing
• some conduit for hiding the wires from the TV in our bedroom. Been meaning to do something about that for years!

Oh the glamour of my life :rotfl:Still that's a few more household improvements ticked off.

There was some exciting news this weekend. DS2 proposed to his girlfriend and she sad "Yes" :j I'll have to think about an engagement present now... oh, and a hat :rotfl:

Happy Monday everyone

Good to catch up on your news. Great how Mr FS is settling in to the new job.

How's the garden going? And..are you still painting?

Woo hoo, a hat! We've had a few weddings in the family recently where I've suddenly become "of the older generation" :eek::rotfl: I couldn't quite hack a hat, so I went with a flower-shaped fascinator, nothing too crazy, and it worked really well :j

Your birthday! I hope Mr F does get back.

Hey it's Brizzle :wave: I hear you're doing brilliantly - well done.

The garden is tidy but I haven't planted anything yet. Painting is continuing but mainly for family birthdays at the moment. I'll have something to show you soon.

Thanks for popping in

I love hats - and fascinators too! Can't wait to go outfit shopping I've just spoken to Mr F and he is coming home tomorrow :T

Mr F has just 'phoned and he is coming home tomorrow :T He'll be home all day Wednesday so we can go out for my birthday. I have a birthday voucher for a free main course at one of our favourite local pubs so will book us in.

Lots of things accomplished today:

• a pile of ironing
• put a make-up free selfie on Fac£book for Cancer Research - £3. Scary but I don't think I look too bad for pushing 21 :rotfl:
• sent an outline for some management training to Mr F's old company. I did a couple of one-to-one training sessions for Mr F's team as a favour for him. Apparently the feedback has been very good and they may want some more. This time I'll get paid though :T
• did a preliminary sketch for a new painting. It's a birthday gift for a family member of Daffodils - the flower for March
• put up the nets at the back door. They'll do the job but I didn't cut the bottoms off very straight Who looks at bottoms anyway :rotfl:

Well, better book that meal.

Take care

Wot no link to the selfie x. A women at work showed us her's yesterday. She wears tons of make-up usually, and the selfie made her look twenty years younger (I secretly think she photo shopped it!!)

Lots of good news there! And great that Mr F will make it home
