Hugs pigpen even though I know you don't like them
I have vacced the house from top to bottom. Well, DDs dolls househer room is having a deep clean, I don't remember vaccing under her bed since decorating about 6 months ago :eek:
It's not actually that bad, but I'm hot now. Maybe she's been cleaning it herself :rotfl:
DS friends mum (same street) is doing her washing here as they have no kitchen just now. So WM is on load no 3. To return the favour they're inviting me to a BBQ tonight :T I'm going alone as kids are with granny, so she has prepared her DS that my DS won't be coming...Bossymoo

*mops brow*.
The was just shy of 4lbs of currants after I had tidied through them :eek: so I picked a few more and have jammed in two batches.
Mysteriously the first batch made more than the second batch but I suspect this was because the 45 minutes simmering of fruit was a bit more vigorous, so I dare say I boiled off more liquid. It'll probably be like toffee:rotfl: I have also taken DD to work and promised NOT to get out of the car (am in 'old' clothes);)) and have re-mowed the lawn to pick up straggly bits and the now dried clippings from yesterday. And I have emptied out the dregs off the butt and rinsed the sludge out.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

Hope m-i-l is feeling better.
Found a bit of GUAG today (but not much!):
- took DH to play trains for the day
- did shopping at beeandqueue and MrS
- looked round shops in centre of local market town, went to bank, bought more fruit and a mini-backpack type bag to leave both hands free for Nordic walking or for when I go to fetch DGS1+2
- came home and skimmed through a book - a present from a German friend who has contributed to it
- had lunch and collapsed on sofa for an hour
- have struck about 5 things off my toots list (mainly touching up emulsion of different colours and filling a crack) - still lots of little bits to do, but it's a start
- prepared evening meal
- now waiting for DH to ring for me to collect him from our local station
- we're going to "HMS Pinafore" thi s evening
Honey Bear, I have taken a photo to inspire you further, but emailing it from my phone to my PC takes days rather than minutes. It will be posted eventually.
(((Hugs))) Bossy
:T to all Flykids with good reports
Good luck to dancemum's pupils
Hope you enjoyed the County Show, Natty.
Will catch up again tomorrow x0 -

Mr LW has been munching on his own personal Frogs today.:T
Letter to pension people done; eye test done and new specs ordered; route to clinic sorted out ready for Tuesday; batteries for my hearing aid ordered (he does this because it involves a phone call).
So he's done well.:o
Folks, there are too many with sadness in their lives for me to enumerate, plus the brainfog means I can't keep straight in my head who has had what happen, if that makes sense....
But I would like to send a BIG heap of posi-vibes to all of you, and as it's the Esbat (Full Moon) tonight, leave you with this blessing
May all your dreams be carried upon the wings of Dragons.If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0
