Very cute Sugarbaby.
Maman - we are only looking at garden flats but they aren't ideal with the animals we have. We have three houses and two flats viewings now on Saturday and my husband is seeing a bungalow later today.
Chanie - it is the Southend area as my husband has to commute to London for a few more years. We went to Southend beach last year and it was really busy, even with Covid.

Oh yes. I've been doing nothing but tidying, cleaning and decluttering the past few days and I just smashed a jar of tomato pasta sauce all over the kitchen floor. Some of the sauce went on my new trainers too.
At least it is sunny so I rinsed them off and left them outside to dry off!2025 GOALS

The trainers rinsed off fine and are already dry as it gets so hot in my garden.2025 GOALS

maman said:I shouldn't laugh but, at least you said you wanted red trainers! 🤣Wednesday you’ll need a bigger place - my children were trying to encourage us to move to Southend (or any seaside town which had a beach and funfair) when we visited, so I’m going to send them to live with you!3

A bit of glamour. I treated myself to a new keyring for my door keys. It was in the sale, so was under £20 and I chose the gold, for a bit of bling. I was going to get it engraved, until I saw the price of engraving, so I didn’t bother.

That is cool Chanie.
Now we are completely ruling out flats. My husband saw a 2 bed flat last night but I think I will prefer a house. We are seeing four houses on Saturday now, one of which is a second viewing for the bungalow my husband saw yesterday.
The football was really exciting last night! It's a shame there is nothing on tonight or tomorrow. We want to get back on Saturday in time to watch the Wales game.
It is supposed to rain this weekend so I will have to take my brolly. I'm thinking of wearing all black and white when I go out, including my handbag.

Thank you Ladies, for all of your lovely comments about my Great grandson.3

Hope the house viewings went well Wednesday. It didn't rain here at all yesterday so hopefully you stayed dry. Today it's muggy and threatening rain but none so far.
That keyring is gorgeous chanie. It's a really high end brand so you did well to get it at a reduced price. I like the idea of buying quality rather than quantity. If I need a bit of retail therapy I'm happy to browse the CS although lately I haven't even bought anything from there. I have been digging out summer clothes that I didn't get around to wearing last year. I wore some black and white polka dot culottes on Friday and received compliments. I wore it with a black tee shirt but I've noticed the colour is fading a bit so I need to look out for a new one with short sleeves.
Today I'm doing a manicure and pedicure. I've cut down my fingernails and will shape them properly later when I'm watching tv. I've put a basecoat on my toes and will add polish later. I find strong colours can stain my nails otherwise.
Nothing much else happening here. Hope everyone is well and happy. 😊6
