Decided on a bit of pottering in my own garden. Moved some pots around, planted a few bit out, did a bit of watering. Starting to feel on top of the garden and quite happy with it. A bit more planting out, moving and sowing to do in the next week.

DD is home, complaining she's so tired she wants to go to bed, is biting my head off at every opportunity and did catch the sun, a slight tan most places, but on her face its more a case of all her freckles trying to join up :rotfl:
Flying wise, I've decluttered a bath to try and wake me up, put clean towels in the bathroom and now I'm trying to do accounts again but I can't focus properly so its taking a while.Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!0 -

mouse buried, mousehouse clean out for last time, need to decide if it its going on freecycle or in attic. in all honest im voting for freecycle as im the carer of the pets but ill will give everyone the choice later.
We took our small animal cages to the RSPCA; they get little furries dumped on them.
next door's garden watered. (Pots) been to Mr Ms as we had (and I quote) NOTHING to eat.:cool:;) DD had a LOT to say to me when i waled in from work tired, and hot *sigh*. Once she had calmed down I suggested she might let me get in next time;)
Am working Friday so might not be around tomorrow *kerching* (much) as I have a lot to do. Have fetched paint-pot-washing cloths home form work and a towel I found. I need longer days - and less sleep.:rotfl:Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily DickinsonJanice 1964-2016

If you have embroidered, fabric labels then copydex is EXCELLENT for gluing them into shoes and plimsolls.
And, from the bottom of my heart, thank you. And I won't be the only one. Being shouted at by a parent because an unlabelled top has gone missing (after PE) is not nice. Was it MY fault they CBA to label it then expect 7/8 yo not to lose them?
