Daily stuff done

Area cleared outside for the logs that arrive tomorrow, then I must get them in out of any rain for the winter.

Seems Lebara as conducting upgrades in my area, I have no incoming / outgoing calls until they think the 18th Sept, so I have just moaned at them, and got a months money back.  But I still cannot call Octopus to moan at them, and the standard of their emails etc...........................

But at least whatsapp, strava (steps)  and texts do seems to work.

Making pizzas tonight, best go and make dough.

@pigpen you can access Amazon, YouTube etc on your freezer?

yup.. Spotify is my favourite.. and if I log in to the app I can SEE what is inside my fridge from the supermarket. We were once driving back from Manchester and I got a ntification on my phone that the fridge door was open so I a song called 'shut the door' play on the fridge from about 60 miles away.. made me giggle and scared Squeak half to death. ... it is a fancy dancy fridge!! .. and I am a little bit of a geek haha

@ionafan that is soooooo annoying; I've done it myself a few times. A only uses cotton handkerchiefs but I blow my nose such a lot I use tissues. Speaking of A's handkerchiefs, when putting the bedding on earlier I discovered 7 of them behind the bed!

@roundtuit I'm pleased your first trip in the car went well.

We had a nice lunch with our friend and when we got back I put on fresh bedding, finished drying the bedding I washed this morning and made up the bag for the laundry (shirts for washing and ironing and bedding for ironing only). Putting fresh bedding on its one of my least favourite tasks - does anyone else feel like that? I also did the washing up - there seemed to be quite a lot considering we were out for lunch and I don't eat breakfast.

It will soon be time for supper, although I still feel quite full from lunch so it will be something light for me.

Morning all.  Hope you're doing well today.

Solved wordle in four and got all four lines in connections. Very unlike me. My lie in must have done good.

Going to check banking first this morning then get dressed and walk Poppet.  The only other plan is possibly gardening.

Have a great day everyone.

Good morning 😊
This week has been a blur....
DH returned safely from GNR 👍
New child met on Monday, started on Tuesday 👍 Temporary contract of a 4 yr old. Her background is complicated, but she is bright & sassy! She doesn't like going to 'baby' groups 🙄 I have booked & paid for the monthly rhs group for next Wednesday as I thought she would enjoy that, only to be told there is a change of plans & I don't have her next week 🤦‍♀️Oh well, my other little girl will enjoy it 😊
Talking of little girls.......we have welcomed DGD to the world on Thursday, weighing 7lb 9oz (after soooooo many scans because she was small!) She had a c-section in the end. Mother & baby are doing well and got home last night. They have called her Posy. 

I have caught up on the thread - Round, well done on dealing with a stressful situation, and I'm glad you are okay. Enjoy your weekend.
Hugs, sticks & spoons to those that need them and belated birthday wishes CoG 

I need to get up, dressed & breakfasted. Also, stick a wash on & peg out before I head to DD2 to see what they need doing 😊

Have a good day, everyone x

Jazee

Congratulations GI.

Banking checked, not bankrupt yet.  Must now wrap DDs pressies for her birthday tomorrow.

Morning all

Done connections, not done wordle yet.

House very tidy as I had my mates over for tea and a natter.  They were served veggie lasagne and lemon posset with m almond shortbread, my best yet.   WM x 2, Dw x 1.
