Spent the weekend so far looking after the GKs Friday , swimming followed by a picnic in the park, then ice cream at my place in the garden before taking them home.Saturday was the usual parental shopping and housework with a couple of hours outside in the sun reading. got asked to babysit last night for my little DGS and big DGS . DGD was having a sleepover with a cousin. I was a bit apprehensive looking after an 18 wk old baby who is breast fed but does have a bottle once a day before bed . Anyway he was very good , he loved his bath but holding a slippy baby is a bit precarious to me 😂. He went to sleep for me and that was it . Big DGS just sorted himself out getting ready for bed . Mum and Dad were gone about 3 hours all told .
Today big DGS is coming with me for breakfast to my mum and dad .Have a good day everyone .Life is an adventure, never stop exploring.7 -
I’m glad it went well. Other people’s babies are such a responsibility and worry, but they trusted you with him so they knew you’d be excellent ⭐️Not all who wander are lost - J.R.R.Tolkien

The weave for your friend's hair sounds great. A couple of years ago I met someone from your neck of the woods who had the same condition and also had a really good weave. I wonder if it was the same person who did it.🤔
Glad to hear the baby was good for you - he must be so big now. 😀Finally Debt Free! - July 2016 🌟

Yesterday was very crazy work wise , spent the morning in the office then home for the afternoon. Today will hopefully be quieter , though not holding my breath.I have started doing Leslie Sansone walking videos in the morning as a change from the ones I started out doing. I hope I can keep this up in the winter months it is definitely making me feel healthier plus the walking at lunchtime .I have cashed out topcashback and the money has arrived in my account today. This will be my spends for my Lakeland trip Thursday to Sunday . I can't wait to get there , staying in a B@B that is room only but with a breakfast basket if wanted .The weather looks dry but who knows in the Lakes . I get so excited going over the last hill into Windermere where you can see the lake in the distance , it's like going home . It's the Great North Swim weekend , and swimming is a passion of mine having been involved in the sport for over 15 years so I look forward to meeting up with some friends .Anyway better crack on with today .Life is an adventure, never stop exploring.4
