Morning all

Its another beautiful sunny day here, the washing line is full again! and another load in the wm.

Yesterday was spent doing absolutely nothing we didn't even get dressed all day no housework was done and for tea we had egg on toast, all we did all day was sit playing board games with ds and watched tv drinking tea and eating hm cakes... it was lovely.

So far today I've done all housework downstairs , prepared dinner ready to go on, just got to make beds, hoover upstairs, finish the trifle for after lunch then make some biscuits 7 flapjacks for the tin, DH has took over the bread making so he will do 2 loaves and then cut the front lawn then after dinner I think we will go for a stroll to pick some blackberries.

Hope you all have a lovely day

Sittin' pretty in the conservatory.
Well, i feel good in a summer dress with a t.shirt over.

You won't believe it! Hanging out the washing on the line this morning and taking photo's of Lenor UN Stoppables in wash scent booster - trialing for Savvy Circle.
I cought the dog eating raspberries off the canes. I was shocked! but thought it funny! she ate about x3. Then went and picked herself a beetroot to chew on! Cheeky monkey. She now has a red tongue.

i have been given some magazines to read = Living, Instyle and Marie Clare. The photo's in them look great. Summer living.
It must be good to be able to change your decorations for every season.

I am going to look in the green house in a minute as I need to keep an eye on the plants and water. We have tomatoes, peppers, cucumber and marigolds growing.

Finished the ebook i was reading about open waters, a sea tale on a rich mans boat and the crew.

Oh is looking forward to our sea adventure with dog.
Ok not quite the same! A ferry crossing to the Isle of Wight in September.

Have a lovely day everyone. i like this cool weather.
happy wedding anniversary sistercas. I wish i could give you some flowers.

Morning all,

had some pretty heavy downpours yesterday but no thunder or lightening. Just lots and lots of rain. Still, it cooled down the outside temperature and I'm sure the gardens were glad of it.

I'm pretty ashamed to say we've only just got out of bed. Well I woke up and preceded to prod hubby awake.

Him : "What have you woke me up for?" he asked somewhat grumpily.

Me : "Well every weekend and every day you've been off work if you've woke up before me you wake me up so I just thought I'd return the favour".:rotfl:

Pictures. I have pictures today of the babies in the baby house. My daughter sent them to me last night.

This is Siyia. It was taken on Mandela day which was a few days ago. They are a little concerned about her weight. She is eating everything in sight. Considering she was underweight when she came to the girls and was found wandering the streets she is probably making up for lost time.

This is Unathi. Put into care straight after she was born. She was premature and very tiny. A couple of months after she was born she was found to be HIV+.

This is Rhea. No history behind her story, just abandoned at birth.

Samkelo who the girls call Bo. I have no idea why. The only baby boy.

Finally, theres Rondetta. Well actually her name is Rodney but the girls refuse to call her that. They call her Rondetta on account that Rodney is a boys name. I asked my daughter who picks the names and she said either the biological Mother does, the social workers, or nurses do. Obviously they didn't know Rodney is a boys name.


Babies aren't in the baby house long before they are adopted, then their new parents get the chance to rename the child as they wish.

Not much planned for today, loads of laundry again but that can wait.

Onwards and forwards,

have a great day all.

I've done the ironing today and there is a old of washing dry on the line. I guess I ought to iron that now! I need to clean the bathroom.

Youngest child is extremely hard work at the moment. Well he's ok today so far. It's the evenings that he's dreadful.

Doing burgers for tea and I will have LO curry as I don't like burgers.

Does anyone still have the traditional Sunday dinner anymore? Dh doesn't like a roast dinner so we don't often have them. And when we do it's in the evening.

Well I'd better go and do some cleaning x

I normally lurk, but just wanted to comment on Judi's pictures to say how beautiful they are. What an amazing job your daughter and her partner (I think I read before it's her partner, apologies if not). You must be extremely proud, I know I would be.

Happy Anniversary Mr and Mrs sistercas

Lovely day here again, but not enough washing to make up a load

DH and DS are hanging the new garden gate, what a faff. DH offered it up and found out it was 6 inches too narrow so he has framed it with some tanellised timber that he had in the shed and it looks really good, on the plus side it has made the gate much more solid.
Aaargh I have just heard DH yelling at DS because he let go of the gate while he was trying to hang it, so many expletives:eek: and coming from my DH who hardly swears:eek:
He has just come in and said he may just kill DS he is not a happy bunny I am staying well out of it

Must go they are calling for me to go and see, be back laters
