Morning all
Wide awake at 5am, it promises to be my favourite kind of weather day, brilliant blue skies but bitingly cold. I’ve just been outside for coal and it’s 2 degrees according to the thermometer.
I have lit the living room stove, let youngest dog out for a wee, unloaded the DW and brought a cuppa back to bed. Oh, and set some blackberries off to stew with some cinnamon ready for the crumble we are having for pudding tonight 😋
Hoping that the pest control man doesn’t find anything too sinister but you’ll be the first to know if he does because it will send me into a spin no doubt!!Food shop due later with supplies for the weekend so we don’t need to venture anywhere.This time tomorrow we will be well on our way to the hospital, hoping she is near the top of the list and doesn’t have to wait too long.I hope everyone has great days, especially Round xx
Happy Friday Eve everyone xx7 -
Good morning my lovelies xx
Thank you asb xx Everything crossed re pest control man.
Groundhog Day here. So I'm up, made my bed, dressed, packed my lunch, eaten breakfast and supped a brew. And I've sploshed bleach down the loo as an added bonus.
Have a good day

Bug talk paragraph.. TW
I've been looking at steamers and UV lights and the cheap bed bugs traps to keep an eye on the situation growing internationally.. Especially for those using public transport it might be worth keeping a close eye on.. there are growing reports of wee beasties in the South and heading up north.. I can't do bugs.. give me the rona over bug any day!! I can't stand the thought of them, they have been a source of ick my entire life and I have never seen one.. I was 25 before I saw a head louse!!

Hair dyed, then messy bathroom had to be cleaned, so scrubbed floor whilst I was at it. Pink stuff cream cleaner did well on the dye, my hair barely took. Greys are now blue, everything else mousy brownMarried 40y.o. mum of an autistic 11y.o. Carer/SAHM.
