WTG finishing work for the day, Trissie! I think the Relax video is definitely "something else"!
I don't know how they got the tiger to cooperative -maybe they shot that part separately? I never heard of anyone getting mauled, even thought H&S back then definitely wasn't of the same standard as today. (For anyone else who is interested in watch the video, it does come with warnings, and as Helian has commented, the lyrics are somewhat inappropriate at times !)

Hi, Dogged!

Thank you for the encouragement and validation regarding our party, Helian. I'm guessing that once everything settles with your DMum, and you get into a routine, it will become a lot easier on you. ATM everything is new, and I can see there's a lot of admin tasks still for you, which must take time and effort, as well as still getting her settled in.

I've enjoyed some time in my garden, despite the background of next door constantly drilling and hammering. :roll: Poor little Jude is hiding under the bed. :( It appears that A and D have decided to partition the main bedroom so A's boys have somewhere to sleep other than the sitting room, when they come and visit their Dad. (D's not so DS is holed up in the small front bedroom, and shows no inclination to move out, despite being well into his 20s, and it's only a 2 bedroomed house like ours). But, from what I can see, it's going to be *tiny* (think Harry Potter cupboard !) and those boys are growing, so despite bunk beds they're going to be very cramped. And I don't see how they're going to manage for storage for all their "stuff", although I think D may have some good ideas - she's very gifted that way.

Having lunch now, then back out in the garden as I need to cut the grass. I'll deal with the house and last-minute tweaks to the spare room later. I don't think the Men will be back until 6pm at the earliest, and they won't.notice whether I've hoovered or not! :lol:

Retrieve the nibbles I have bought from their hiding place!
Keep the Nosecco in garage for.now, as it will stay relatively cool there
Start cheese and pineapple, or leave until tomorrow? (Possibly cube the cheese today, as it should be fine in a bag. I think, like many things, it's going to take longer than anticipated, especially if I have BIL and DH underfoot)
Check on seating -do we have enough or do I need to bring folding chairs?

Thanks for the encouragement, Kitty! I hope it does become easier. I also need to accept that I can't watch everything that is done/ not done. I need to trust the NH to take care of her the best they can.

Having lunch. I hope to be otd in 40 minutes.

I'm moving slowly today, feeling down - not super motivated. So glad I have payroll to kick me out of that to some extent! LOL!

Next:
- simple slides for today
- s2s and self care
- make the bed
- otd by 12:40

Done:
- payroll: graded HWs turned in last minute
- payroll: updated gradelink
- payroll: messaged 1 S who would have a 90%+ instead of 83% if she just turned in 2 missing HWs
- some qt
- reclaimed kitchen
- lunch
- made a Kroger order

Good morning! (for 7 more minutes as I type this)
I’ve piddled several days away and all of my morning. I hate I missed the Smiths/Morrisey. I can’t remember how I first heard of them but I have listened to them and my dd likes Morrisey still. I’ll try to catch up on what I’ve missed this evening. For now, dh left to run an errand and left me in bed, I’m still there scrolling and he just messaged he’s on his way home soon with lunch so I need to scramble to get some stuff done while I can. :oops:
At least I did have Bible time do I can mark one thing off.

To do:
D2s
Weigh
Spot clean floors

*poof*
