Morning all

Its blooming freezing here. Looks like I'm going to have to put the heating on constant again today as sitting around doing paperwork I'm getting really cold despite being wrapped up Having a coffee than I'm going to do a HHC of dailies

I've just spent another hour going through photos, only another 3GB worth on the pen drive to sort through :eek: Thankfully its a case of compare the folder on the pen drive to the one on the computer, if they're identical then just delete the pen drives one It sounds worse than it is and I've leant my lesson about backing up photos - do it ONCE, maybe have a zip file of all of them as an extra back up, but don't have about 5 back ups due to backing up a computer to a laptop (computer dying), backing that laptop up to new laptop (original laptop dying) which means the computer back up is also on the laptop, then find a pendrive & CD with photos on which you then put on the computer to check and discover that you have some of those photos already and then of course there's the ZIP file back ups as well as the folders :whistle::o


To do:
Investigate getting new smoke alarms

Aaahhh! - :coffee: at last. Please join me - help yourselves :coffee::coffee::coffee:

It took me well over an hour to sort out and clean our 9' x 6'6" utility room :mad: but it is now DONE and everything in the cupboards bar one packet of washing powder tabs (I've decided I prefer liquid) is fit to come with us when we downsize. All the rest has joined the *fling* piles in the RoD or gone in the bin

I've had a shower, stripped our bed, started the next load in the WM, put tonight's dinner in the SC and washed up in lovely hot water. Now about to start computer job - I feel more energised than yesterday so will hopefully make better progress. The hoovering and dusting in the LR can wait until after lunch when my back has recovered from this morning's stretching and bending

The Magnificent Four are plundering the food on the bird table, but the long-tailed tits got there a couple of hours ago, and anyway there's plenty more for the little birds in the squirrel-proof feeders outside my study window. Mr Blackbird is enjoying the mealworms that I threw out on the patio a couple of days ago: they have reappeared where the snow has melted. The winter jasmine looks beautiful, and my hellebores are reappearing from under their white blanket

Onwards and upwards...

Morning All!

Am in office today. Got kiddies away to nursery at 8 then it took me 45min to drive 4.5 miles :mad: still, got her safely.

Did some photobooks for the kiddies last night. Meant trawling through old pics of course, but managed without a tear and found a 50% code for snapfish kerching :money: so very pleased at that!
