Hi folks, I'm here at last, just not been keeping up, too much 'real life' I'm afraid.

Over the last few days my main pleasures have been:-

1. Being invited to evening meal at DD's on Saturday.:T

2. Bathing DGKs even though my 10 year old DGS is well capable of bathing himself. I think he enjoyed regressing for a while.:D

3. A free talk at the library with coffee and a biscuit thrown in.

4. DD and family to tea on Monday. Realising how tall DGS is getting when he comes to give me a cuddle after tea, but hey, I still get that cuddle:j

5. A YS bacon joint from Mr. S. so it's bacon and pineapple for tea tonight and the cold leftovers will do us several lunches:T

((((((((((hugs))))))))))) to all with troubles, especially our very brave raggydoll.

Bella.

Yesterday

1) Making time to have porridge before I went to work.
2) Tucking into my leftover Bang bang chicken for lunch at work. I have noticed an increase in people bringing in their lunches.
3) Only needing to buy milk
4)We had a lot's of laughter at dinner last night. I just love dinner times when we are all around the table. It's my favourite part of the day.
5) Making hobnobs then cuddling up on the sofa to watch telly with ds, 11.

A combination of last night and this morning.
1. Walking down to the local shop in the snow instead of trying to defrost car and driving to supermarket.
2. Soaking o/n and boiling this morning marrowfat peas to make soup.
3. Cutting my old dressing gown up in to fleece nappy liners for DS real nappies.
4. DS being occupied for hours with plastic cups from the kitchen.
5. Sweeping/wiping floors instead of hoovering (still to do).

Hi everyone - not getting on here as often as I'd like at the moment as we are still very busy helping DS with lambing time. Also a bit battered and bruised tonight as one of his huge ewes knocked me flying full length - thats the thanks you get for feeding the blighters lol!

1. Watching 2 sets of twin lambs being born today.
2. Finishing Nella Lasts War.
3. Getting email to say Nella Lasts' Peace is awaiting collection at the library - cant wait to start it!
4. Making 2 big pans of soup - leek and potato and mixed veg with lentils - yummy.
5. Going to market for fruit and veg with a friend - nice to have company and share car and parking costs.

Five for Wednesday:

1. Making proper coffee for breakfast.

2. Getting lots of washing done and out on the line again.

3. Clearing up a load of paperwork and recycling/shredding stuff to clear it out.

4. Having cleared a space, making a huge creative mess in preparation for a teaching project I'm doing tomorrow. The mess is still all around me but rediscovering all the materials I have got stored has made me realise that I can possibly earn money by making lots more and not spending much. It's got my brain buzzing.

5. Our rubbish and recycling hasn't been collected for two and a half weeks now because of the snow and it's really good to walk past it waiting for collection and see how little we have amassed in that time.

I need to go and pack up the chaos before bed but I'll put something good on iplayer while I tidy!

Sleep well everyone.
