Morning! It's the weekend (for us!) and the beasts are up already :eek:

I need to mow the green stuff this morning... We also have not much fridge stuff, maybe a visit to greengrocer is in order - will do meal plan first. Need to drop swimming letter in to get DS moved up a group and request a later time - 3.45 cutting it a bit fine when he starts school. So we may have a swim too...

Feels like a lot to be done today to catch up. Here's to a productive Thursday!

Jazee

Morning all. About to make a start on today's list before 15 mins gym and walking the dogs before the paid stuff.

Hope everyone has a good day.

Grass cut. Looks lots better than a month ago. Mr T visited. DD sent to her room 3 times although we're going to have a nap now so she's snuggled in, patting me on the chest saying "can I have a look at your booms?" Lol.

DW emptied, reloaded and on again. Shopping put away. Kids fed.

Nap time!

Morning all

lots of posi-vibes being thrown the way of those in need of them.

Have cleaned bathroom and the gerbil cage. I have been to town for change for sports day refreshment stall 'floats'.

Went over to the chalet to pick up the laundry - guests still in situ.

Ooooooops.

Mrs Dog has seen the sea. She decided that paddling was cool, drinking sea water was a swizz and enjoyed visiting the beach (I think).

So tomorrow, my baby girl will be the same age that DS was when DH died. If that makes sense. When I look at her, I can't see how on earth I could explain what I did, to a child so young. I can't remember if he was as vocal as her, if he seemed more grown up or not. I don't know how to talk to her about it That's why I feel off today, I think. That and the birthday thing. DS asked what cake I'm having.
Somebody shake me!

*gives Bossy a very gentle shake* Hey, you did what you had to, explaining to DS, because there wasn't a choice. It's amazing what we can do when the situation is that there's no alternative.

Totally different situation, but I once rugby-tackled a running dog, because if I hadn't, he'd have gone onto the main road within the next second or so and would almost certainly have been killed. If anyone had asked me if I could do a rugby tackle, I'd have laughed my socks off! But the point is, I did something I "couldn't" do because it was an emergency, adrenalin kicked in, and the dog lived to tell the [STRIKE]tail[/STRIKE] tale.:o

Have a (((HUG))) Bossy, just before I nip out on the buggy to post a letter - Ted's staying home, as he'll go totally apeshytte if he sees another dog, but I'll put a few treats in his K0ng, and I'll only be gone quarter of an hour or so.:o
