SHEs Organized

Morning kittykat. And lann. Dh didn't realize you might want the car? Hopefully he turns up soon.

Lann do you have an appointment today? Hope it goes well.

I don't know what happened. I wanted to sleep in a bit. Lol. Woke up 3 times and the last was just after 430. I gave up. Not sure why.

Kittykat you remind me. I should see if I can find a recipe for hot cross buns. The kids.. and especially my mom would love that. I can make them later with dd.

So glad you can go easily from home to your mom now Helian. How great she's moved.

Helian I am hoping once I get both kid couples here i can get help coordinating an Easter meal. I think my sister and her guy are just wanting to go off exploring somewhere. They will show up sometime. Dad is pretty adamant we will follow tradition and do something and has chosen what he will make and it can go along with whatever else. I am at your place. Someone else decide....

Dd will help. If it didn't have to include mom and dad sometime the whole weekend of just being together will be perfect. I am just thrilled dd and dsil will meet their little nephew before he's big. He'd be a lot different if it were Christmas time.

They might be soon on their way? If they didn't sleep in a bit. In my calculations unless they stop in the city longer they could be here by the time I get lunch done after church. I should actually make soup broth with the chicken in the fridge. If I don't use it now I should throw it out. That would make lunch for when they arrive. I have bread in the freezer.

Gotta get things done this morning. As per usual I didn't get round to everything and the essentials will be last minute. I do have several hours now. Leave just before 10 for church.

Everything is close in here and it's just the kids coming but still... I would like it to look a bit better in here than it does. Maybe quck room by room tidy.

Good morning!
I have to take dh to drop off his truck at the mechanic and pu grocery order, come back home to put it all away, and go back out to pu cake order. Hope to hit some antique stores in the town where the bakery is. Have a good day.

Hugs, helia! Sounds like your mom is settling in nicely. A good routine and your daily (when you can) visits will help tremendously. Love hearing the good news!
We finished the have to chores and are heading out to see about buying some satsuma trees and pu cakes for tomorrow (our Easter with dd).

Hello, everyone!

Soup sounds perfect for lunch, especially when you're not sure when everyone will arrive, Laura!

Have fun with the antiques, Bama!

Gma, below is a link showing Freddie walking on his harness - I record him every so often to show the the vet (Freddie refuses to walk while at the vets practice), so we can see how the Solensia is helping his hip pain and his gait is improving. He has hip displasia in his right hip, so his gait has always been very uneven, but it's getting better.

Helian, that's such good news about your DMum, and the NHS sounds lovely! You e had a very busy and stressful week, so I'm not surprised you're tired, but there are lots of other people around who can take care of your Easter meal - you deserve some time off.

I didn't get to church today, DH was very late back with the car, and it was really raining too hard to walk all the way to the parish church, which had been my alternative. DH had also bought himself lunch from a meal deal, bit didn't think to get anything for me. Fortunately we have plenty of fresh bread, cheese and fruit. He did, however, bring home some hot cross buns, so we've had those with our tea this afternoon.

I've folded laundry and PA, done a little more to that little chair, quickly dusted the bedrooms, and spent some more time working on the photos. Next, I need to do our supper (fish, as it's Good Friday) and also kitties' supper
