Effyb4 Hope all goes well this evening for your DH.
Keep strong and look after yourself.

What Elastic said.

LW - another stick coming over for the BD as a thankyou for your healing for LittleyDog. She got perkier and perkier yesterday, and after a good night's sleep, seems back to normal this morning. Although she's not best pleased with me as I've just applied her flea drops.

No flying for me this morning as I'm already running late and have another early start, so quick clean of me and walk the dogs.

Have a great day everyone.

Morning!

I need to get a Xmas card off to my brother, haven't even bought any. Will pop up to town on my lunch break for some.

Fed kids and taken to school. Brought green bin back in.

Also want to "Hoover" up the leaves today now they've dried up somewhat...

Dustykitten

Walk done, it's chilly out there!

Just having a warming cuppa and a quick time on here before cracking on. I need to drop DS2 to town in an hour so think I'll stay down there and do a couple of jobs I need to do in town.

Effyb4 Best wishes for you and especially your OH, hope he is soon feeling very much better.


Bathroom Done on Sunday, but washing the towels today.
If I can summon up some enthusiasm, I'll go and paint the ceiling. Would be good to finish redecorating before uni boy comes back - in 10 days!

Honey_Bear

Sticks for your BD, Lamewolf. and a very gentle virtual (((hug))).


Hugs for Deco, Dusty, Effyb4's OH - and Effyb4, obviously, together with coping vibes. Safe driving vibes for Mr Piggers.


May the healing vibes continue for LittlyDog together with Mrs Dog's - she also exploded, twice, after a trip to the vet but fortunately she alerted me to her needs both times. She's never coped very well with vet visits but this is new development and rather concerning. Anyway, she's back in tiptop health (for her) today, so it's good to hear LittlyDog is okay too.


I absolutely LOVE the elves and the Mrs MP's stockings! The whetabix jenga and the idea of a marshmallow bubble bath are both genius! Christmas can be really, really special - as long as I avoid the shops.

It's clear and cold here, but not as windy as yesterday. I put the niffy blanket on to wash first thing yesterday and it was dry by the time it got dark! I can't even manage that in the summer, so the air is super-dry here for once. I enjoy winter when it's cold and clear, I just can't cope with wind and rain together. Not sure why I live in Plymouth, really!

I finished raking the leaves up yesterday, and managed to flush a drunk out of the shrubbery!

First frog munched. *urp*
