summertime_2

good morning all.lovely & sunny here till about 12 so washing on line for few hr.l always open all windows and doors for min l hr,come rain or shine, every morning after lm dressed. l cant stand chemical airfreshers, so use natural hm ones plus scented flowers from the garden around the house.
off to do 30 min tummy exercises then pre cottage pie for tea .lv always only ate fruit for breakfast and lunch is usually hm soups with crusty bread, so everything is quickly done, to get on with days jobs.lv just found a easy thrifty American recipe called apple bread buns.so for a treat l plan on making them for breakfast Sat morning with coffee.Will pre dough night before.

After morning cleaning jobs must print off money coupons lv been sent.l join every food company mailing list l can find, so get sent quite a few during the yr.Afternoon says rain so will do some more comps, lv not done any for a few days.not won anything yet but l haven't really done that many daily.
Will make another batch of Welsh griddle cakes for 4pm Teabreak, as we loved them so much. & only min's to make.

My Glossy box arrived yesterday,l always get over £25 or more worth of stuff for my £12.50.Apart from my dvd's l buy once a month usually from ebay, my glossy box is my only treats l allow myself. As l am a such a thrifty saver all the time l think lm worth it. Lots of goodies for tomorrow's pamper day. It had a lovely peach shimmer lip gloss so will put that away for Sept hol.Also got in post this week so far, free perfume sample and 2 niviea cream samples.

Running out of things to watch from my dvd collection,so will do a search for cheapest price for boxset of Two Thousand Acres of Sky with Michelle Collins, l loved that programme yrs ago.

Didn't do any crochet last night as still catching up with my product review writing, as deadline up this Sat.Was so tired had a good nights sleep for once.
if anyone is having a bad day or is depressed, lm sending you hugs, l know sometimes l need them, so hang on in there.

Hello - thank you for asking x
My youngest son has CAMHS today and we have three words from him since Sunday:(

My eldest son is plodding along ok. He has an interview for a better job on Friday which would cut down enormously on his travel so fingers crossed x

Our daughter has just had a very bad few weeks due to stress of uni exams, I hope she settles down again now. Granddaughter is up and down and all over the place, our daughter's manic and depressive sessions can last between 2 and 5 days, granddaughters are more like 2 to 5 minutes! It's so hard and I know you must be suffering terribly watching your youngest boy go through his depression.

I hope your older son does well in his interview.

Beth- big hugs for you, brought a tear to my eye, even with enough sedation to floor an elephant OH seemed to know it was me talking to him and would settle a bit!
Molly, hugs for you too, not sure if the CAHMS sessions are helping my DS much just now, but we keep plodding along, he's currently in hyper mode looking forward to our holiday, hopefully the break will help and he won't crash land when we get home.
Washing baskets empty, fridge filled for DD, been to MIL's to tune in a new tv, visited great auntie who has broken her hearing aid so was even more confused than usual, am about to hoover and clean cats igloo, then will sit and hopefully relax, as will be up early tomorrow, need to be at the airport by about 3.30am:eek:
Better move, have a good day all!

It's 70 years since the dam busters raid happened , there was a fly past over the Derwent dam where they practised with the bouncing bomb to commemorate those brave pilots . I live fairly close to Derwent and was hoping to see them fly over , but I missed it :cool:

Enjoy your day everyone x

Very Brave men they were/are.

they were asked to do a Job, And they went and did it. 53 never came home, The others had to Live with the out come of the Damage they did and the lives that were lost because of it.

Truly brave Men that Cared more for the Bigger whole, Than just for them self's.

We Still have men and Women today that are like that,
But I'm sorry to say not enough.

They will all live on In our History as Legends !

Let Us never forget them.
