    Still no news on Biggest.
    We had dinner with her last night. I am on call if she has to go to hospital this week as her husband is working in Wales this week.

    Obviously I have nothing else to report here at the moment.

  • I am not managing to post at the moment.
    Last try?

  • Ah!
    That worked
    No news is good news about Biggest.
    She's still resting. I am going to do some shopping for both of us today. I had my dgs4 for a few hours on Wednesday after I had been to my Mums.
    Went shopping with her, bought a shed for dgd to play her drums in next month. Strange birthday present but needed for the space etc. Her own chill out zone. The house is pretty crowded at the moment.
    Next job I'd guess I'd better focus on other than the Shop is good old decluttering again.

  • It's good to see you Mooloo . Biggest seems to be doing well so that's good news . I think the shed and drums are a brilliant present and hope DGD is coping at school .


    I think I'd be doing any decluttering in bite size chunks . I don't know how your joints are at the moment but you have a lot going on and will need to pace if you can .


    I looked at the link for that house . You get an awful lot for your money there . I was amazed the amount of photographs showing all the different details very different to here where it seems to range from 2 to 20 on average .


    You mentioned tartan fabric , is that all for sale or are you planning any makes workload permitting ? It's still very popular especially at this time of year and Christmas . I've made cushions , hearts and table linen and it is cheerful, cosy and festive as the days draw in .


    Take care

    I bought it for selling in the shop, but I will probably make a couple of cushions, and get Seamstress to make a child's party dress see how it looks.
    Shopping done.
    Dinner done.
    Brought about 16 pairs of trousers home to alter so I am not so far behind tomorrow so I am off to start it all now.

    Good day in the shop. As I had taken work home yesterday it gave me confidence that we were on track.
    Unfortunately I am not sure the new Seamstress is actually up to par. I will give her Thursday, and review.
    Dgs4 is poorly. Hand foot and mouth virus, he's only been in the new Nursery two weeks. Bless him.
    Biggest is still hanging on, so we may actually make it to the Caesar date 3rd October.

    Dgd is actually doing her homework before being asked. Amazing.

    Twin 1 and family are coming up to visit next month.
    I need to find a few days to go and see twin2.

    Mum is well and praying for DS to see sense.

    Think what I have discussed here is permitted.

    However if you don't see me post for a while,then it's not because my life has changed to anything sinister, it's just that one of our followers is trying to get me deleted.

    I usually read on this board and post very little but I'm just stopping by to give Mooloo a big hug. Chin up missus, you're still doing a great job.

    I’ll just echo what Cranky has said.

    I read along but rarely comment. Please look after yourself Mooloo xx
