Hi all, sorry I was awol again yesterday -the council men have been cutting the grass in the field, and it set me off with runny eyes and nose, and I felt too rough to sit in front of a screen.
On top of a bluddy lupus flare.:mad:
No matter, we took a different route for walkies today - a short one, as Ronnie's been a bit under the weather himself today; poor little lad was sick this morning:( (bless him, he tapped the back door with his paw to be let outside). He's perked up now though, and has had some dins, which has stayed down, so I think it was just one of those things.
We were supposed to have Mr LW's pal over tonight, but he's cried off as he has a bad asthma session going on.:( In a way I'm relieved (not that he's poorly, of course) but I don't really feel up to a visitor if I'm honest.
Mr LW has said that he'll throw some salad-y stuff onto plates when he gets in for our dins; and there's some apple crumble left that'll do for pud.
So I'm afraid Flying is pretty minimal at present; hopefully normal service will resume soon.;)
Btw, our "maiden" is called an A-frame, cos that's exactly what it is, it sits over the bath.:oIf your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0 -
Hi all
Had a nice day today, work was good, pottered at home, did some gardening and enjoyed our doggie walk in the sunshine.
Still trying to sort paperwork/office cupboard. Its never ending.
Bossy I didnt know you were from Yorkshire too!0 -
mrs mp her 2 very good friends are in the same class, as is the little boy next-door-but-one who she rather likes to boss around
but there is one little girl who she will miss who is staying in nursery. She's very excited!
Yes, yorkshire lass I too am a yorkshire lass
Am going to make an effort to get to bed earlier tonight. I stay up too late browsing t'interweb and it's not good for me!
Loaded DW and forgot to set it going, so will do that in morning now. Washing brought in and put away. Cereal had for my tea
oh well. I'll do some nice jacket spuds for me n DD for lunch tomorrow.
Tomorrow night is the Beavers end of term party at a play centre. Oh, just remember- FIL has took my car to his friends garage for the MOT, and left me his car so I can get the kids to their beavers and ballet groups! How fab is that? He's going to use MILs car for golf, so really it's her that's going to be without, possibly for the next 2 mornings :ABossymoo
