    :easter_ba Happy Easter Everyone :EasterBun

    Hope you all have a lovely day.

    I'm off to my Aunty's house for the final time today as it has been sold. My cousin is there today and I'm not sure when we'll see him again as he says it's the last time he'll be down here ...

    Mum and I are then going for an Easter roast in the pub (SW can take a hike this week :p) and then I'm going to see Dad.

    I have started a little decluttering and my aim for today is to sort and dust the bookcase on the landing when I get back from Dad's. Then I'm having a night in front of the tv with my cross stitch :p

    Love and hugs to all especially Toots, L-L and LW xx

    OK so I gave myself a kick up the arris.

    I have:
    Showered and dressed.
    Emptied BR bin and s&s.
    Cleared toys away.
    Built coldframe and placed in situ.
    Tidied round LR.
    S&s kitchen, put cloth in bleach, loaded DW etc.
    Switched gammon off.
    Got DS bike and DD pram out ready for in back of car.
    Made a cuppa.
    Filed my nails. Needed after building coldframe ;). By that I mean emery board and fingernails, not alphabetising my DIY hardware :rotfl:
    Put my clean bedding away and made my bed.

    Now finishing my cuppa with a quick browse, as have been summoned for early lunch with outlaws as we are going to the park after (hence the bike and pram). So I will take my big coat, and my gloves as its on the nippy side outdoors!

    Also had an objective look at conservatory. I'm clearly making jobs for myself as there is nothing wrong with the paintwork, it's looks completely fresh and not yellowing at all, and will happily go another year or two :T

    Hope you all have a lovely day.

  • Hi ladies - just wanted to pop in and wish you all a Happy Easter. Life's been a trifle hectic of late, but I have been reading and trying to keep up with lists as time allowed. Hopefully will be back soon,

    Although no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.

    All Easter duties done so a glass of prosecco to celebrate - I'm not by nature a sociable beast.

    Washing all dried on the line so I'm just doing the boys a bit of tea and then it'll be my telly choice with the ironing.

    Tomorrow I hope for more sorting and tidying. DH taking the boys to football in the afternoon so I may even get a couple of hours peace.

    Ionafan, that looks lovely, and I'll have a large slice please!

    Happy Easter to everyone and I hope you've had some of our sunshine - it's been glorious, although still cold.

    I've tidied and S and S through, done 2 x WM, that are now all dried and put away, and just waiting for OH to return from his visit - he's due back very soon, so we'll have our tea (salmon) and settle with a comedy and a quiz!

    Back again tomorrow and working too - I'm doing an Easter Egg hunt and munch for those that are able - just the munch for those not!

    Good vibes all round, R x
