    It's Sunday lunchtime, Pigpen, the most civilized session of the week in a pub, so no, not too early for vodka. Fantastically well done on the weightloss.

    (((Hugs))) to everyone dealing with overexcited kids, and people who say there is no rush.

    230 plant plugs now sunning themselves on the sundeck in pots, and a whole load of detritus has been flung from the sundeck and the yard. It looks a lot better.
    Better is good enough.

    Oh.. question.. OH it useless.. upstairs I have a new SC, in the box. In my kitchen I have my old SC.. the handle is broken , the control panel bit is broken.. it works but the side is gone and wires are exposed.. so do I bin it, even though it works perfectly and use the new one, or do I use the old one until it dies a death?

    Bin it. If someone touched an exposed wire and got injured you would never forgive yourself.

    one SC binned.. and one dead kettle binned..

    2x WM on the line, or will be shortly.. it is all the dressing up gear the cats used as a toilet! Sometimes I loathe cats!

    1x WM on
    1x TD on

    best do food before these eat each other.. and I want to get back to normal school bedtimes/meal times.

    School put up a smug post on their FB saying they are shut tomorrow.. no sheep sherlock... no need to rub it in so much.. :p

    Squeak laid in bed playing her furby game on the ipad.. and the other 3 kicked outside.. Pixie yelled at for putting herself in danger.. the perils of being 4 and the size of a 7 year old!!

    anyway.. bin filling, washing and dinner.. then bed time for the gremlins!!

    dinner on.. it started raining and the skanky neighbours are burning tyres and human flesh by the smell.

    DW emptied and refilled.. not full enough to turn on yet but my worksurfaces are nice and clear.

    I have 2 empty wash baskets to go upstairs.

    I am so over today!

    One load through the WM and pegged out. Shower room drains have been very thoroughly cleaned; everything's flowing much more quickly now.
    Better is good enough.

    DD is packed up and ready to go off camping tomorrow. You would never catch me doing that in a million years. Especially not in April. Actually never if it didn't involve a comfy bed and a bathroom at the end of each day. DH is doing something incredibly annoying on his new-to-him phone. I might confiscate it in a minute. I need to cook dinner, but wine o'clock is here and I really can't be .....bothered - that was the word I was looking for :D

    Well done Piggers on the weight loss. 2lb more down this week. That makes 8lb in total out of the 28lb target.

    Ahhhh.....peace...

    Boys in bed. TV and music silenced, log-fire on and three hounds laid out snoozing, DW, WM and TD all bumbling away quietly.

    Relax. Just one more day to go.
