Picked up Pixie.. her shoes were delivered so she spent a couple of hours practising shuffles and gallops..

Everyone fed, pack up done for tomorrow, Dot has been a turd.. and my braincell hurts..

I have drs tomorrow at 11:45 I think and I need to go collect Pixie at 4 again.. I keep saying I wil send DS2 but don't.. I'm a porker and need the exercise lol. OH drives me there and I walk her back.

Back to my knitting and I may indulge in a magnum.

Yep. 61, spanned across 5 different types of animal. Love them all so much they make my life complete. 

Laundry over the airer, kids asleep and I’m on my way to bed. Not left the homestead for three days and really can’t see any reason to until at least next week. Kids helping neighbours to bale hay tomorrow and I’ll be chopping wood.

hugs to all especially littleydog xxx

G'morning to all - that includes every one of asb's menagerie  
Well done Littleydog x
Sorry to hear about car troubles, pigpen - hope you get away on time x
Pleased to see that you're making good use of your increased workforce, mumtoomany.  As a child, I used to love shelling peas - and quite a few would find their way into my mouth
Great photo, kazwookie - it looks beautiful: gorgeous sky, waves, almost empty beach.  I should love to be there right now.

Another day, another crack at this admin job which is driving me crazy.  Why on earth do Head Office need information that I've already sent them, but in a totally different format, using totally different headings?????  It is crazy and a complete waste of my time. 

So far this morning I have
- made a list
- done finance check
- tried to make a payment to my CC, but the system won't accept it - try again later [ETA done]
- sent birthday gift to my eldest goddaughter (39 tomorrow!)
- FUPA clean bedding

DH has to go to the chiropodist at 11.00 which means that I shall be out of the house for an hour and can't take my work with me.
My friend J (one of the Old Wives) is coming for a meal tonight, so I need to think of a quick and easy dessert - but not strawberries, as she's bringing a strawberry and feta salad for starter.  Maybe blackberries, which are plentiful along the lane and free for the picking - but I should have to pick them myself, as I sent DH out for a walk yesterday with instructions to fill a yogurt pot and he came back after 45 minutes with about 10 berries [rolls eyes]

Hope everyone has a good day today xxx

10 gallons of gravy removed from my body.. fun times..

Pixie dropped off with her shoes

Not sure what else I will manage today.. I do need to fiddle with laundry, load DW and feed next doors fish.

Valli

hospital for dressings/wound checks.  Not a happy bunny.

Came home, had bath.  Bed stripped and airing.  HHI.  Pegged out laundry.  Laundry in WM.

Hello all...how is it already Thursday?

Tiny is 8 today, which I can't believe!  And Small starts Secondary school in September.  Where have my babies gone? 

I'd love to report lots of flying, but I have to pace myself at the moment as I'm constantly exhausted.  I'm having special blood test investigations as apparently my body is not making enough cortisol.  I've tried not to read everything on Google on the matter, so I'm now convinced I only have a few months left lol. Yes, I know I'm an idiot...

I have cleaned the top part of the fridge interior and binned many OOD and old jars that have been festering in there.  The shelves look much cleaner and tidy now.  The bottom shelf and vegetable drawers are on my list for today, but I've just sat down with a cuppa as I've started feeling carp.  

I've got blackberries and early dark purple plums needing picking, but I need a nap first...

Big hugs to everyone xxx

Happy Birthday to Tiny!  Dizzy, I'm not sure whether I welcomed you back as my life was even crazier than usual at that point, but it's great to see you.  Sorry to hear about the need for more tests, hope they find the right treatment very soon.  It's horrid when you constantly feel tired.  I only have to sit down and I've lost an hour.

Quick update from me:
- DH taken to chiropodist
- meanwhile I visited MrAl
- the bits of shopping have been put away and flowers for the table artfully arranged plonked in a nice matching vase
- WMx2 hung out, hoping the rain keeps off for a few hours
- 2x coffee made and being slurped.
My list is gradually getting shorter

Back to admin...
And then after lunch I must mop the kitchen floor, hoover the LR, do another WMx1 of all the dirty cloths and pads, and prep tonight's meal.  I've decided that we're having grilled peaches and blackberries with clotted cream ice cream for dessert [nom-nom] so no need to heat the whole oven.

Walking done, including a walk around local car boot.

Kitchen sorted

Walking boots out side drying in the sun, as I miss judged the depth of a rock pool

WM done, out on whirly

Happy birthday to Tiny

Afternoon all

• bedding stripped, washed, dried, ironed and put back on!
• Windows cleaned
• All surfaces dusted
• Both rooms hoovered
• Gibble rehomed to proper places
• Usual daily jobs done
• Window cleaner has been so putting outside windows as a job done on my list! ( well I phoned him to arrange it lol)

Time for an early supper now and then back to work for a meeting. DH is off to the gym.

Oh Dizzy hope they find out what's wrong soon, it's horrible not knowing.

Not much flying done, I will catch up a bit tomorrow.  Have fed DS1 with a bought quiche, new potatoes and green beans out of the garden.  DH has had a pie out of the freezer.

Tired today, didnt cycle into the office but I needed shopping and I wanted to go to the library anyway.

There are changes happening at work which means I will get more responsibility, another member of staff, and possibly more money.  I have mixed feelings about all of this but I actually dont have any choice, in theory it could make life easier but who knows?  I need the money to clear the debts so just have to get on with it. 

Feet up now, will get an early night I think.
