Hello, everyone!
Welcome, L.Ann - it's so very good to "see" you!
WTG with all your hard work in the garden today, Trissie. DH only went for the day to Bridport - it's about 45 miles each way, so quite doable on the train.
FFB, I'm sorry you're having such a difficult time at work. Hopefully with your boss off for a week it will give you a bit of a break. For some reason we appear to be watching Wales v England this evening - apparently it's a recording!
Gma, that's a big drop in temperature! Were colder as well this weekend, but it's unlikely we'll get any more snow down here.
Helian, ues, I think I will post a link to my dolls house blog in the Arts and Crafts section - that's a very good idea, as some other people may be interested. With moving your DMum, signing the lease was one of the most important things, as now the room is "hers". Maybe you could break everything else you need to do to facilitate her move into tiny baby steps, and then tackle it one step at a time? She's safe and cared for where she is ATM, although it will be better for everyone when she does finally make the move nearer you.
If I had the chance I would probably support Scotland tonight, although,.as I explained to FFB, for some reason we appear to be watching a recording of Wales playing England!!!
Nancy, I'm impressed you have a YouTube channel. I'll look them up. I've posted a few videos for Freddie walking for the vet to check his gait (he has hip displasia, but he either refuses to come out of his carrier at the vet, or he lunges forward and attacks people, so no one gets to see him walking normally there).
Twins, my list is a mixture of regular routines (I have to break it down into steps - if I just put "morning routine" then I'd probably end up missing things out, appointments and brain dump areas of things I would like to do *some day*.
Sunflowers are always so cheerful, Rose! I had some free seeds with a recent issue of my gardening magazine , so hopefully I'll have some too!
Harriet, thank you for your clear and kind explanation and words of advice.
The Irish Dance performance sounded fun, Smilelee. You must be a very proud Grandma!
It's been a very good day. As the garden centre ended up delivering late yesterday (they were scheduled for Monday, but as we're just over the hill we probably got added into a trip) I was able to top up the bark on the little path through the middle of the front garden. And I planted all those pansies I bought yesterday in pots. I had a good chat with Dneighbour D, but by them it was starting to get cold(er) so I came back indoors, just in time.for a.phome.call from DF PL (we're keeping an eye on her Mum for the next couple of weeks while PL gets a much needed holiday). I've baked my coffee loaf cake for MQ's birthday celebration, made flapjack for us, and prepped tomorrow's lunch. I'm ready for bed, but that may have to wait, as Jude has decided she *must* have my lap.
. yay!
Freddie
