Good afternoon all and how are we today then hope everyone is doing okay. Just be not to the garden center to get some compost I reinstated the border on one side of the back garden that had been full of some sort of weed like watercress I'm full of the cold cotton from Eloise Who had it and passed it on when I picked her up when I picked Bonnie up. It's absolutely hammered down with rain last night saw the ground is still pretty wet which means I'm not cutting the grass on the banking today. Next week is quite a busy week Monday we've got the television engineers coming Tuesday plumber coming Wednesday Julie possibly going back to Oldham to see her friends Thursday looking after Eloise while Amy does her module updates for going back to work which I add she is not looking forward to I think she was under the illusion that she could retire at 35 not quite so apart from that not really a lot going on still waiting for my mate to finish the work He is doing currently and come over and start on our wall properly waiting for the van to go to the repair shop but again I have had a price for that job either and that's the grand total of my weekend exciting stuff look after yourself and take care everyone

Happy Sunday & the 21st of September. Reminded of the Earth, Wind & Fire song .

Cloudy here this morning, sun due to return later. Looking at the long range forecast, next weekend’s craft fair may be wet, uh oh. That makes for a long & miserable day.

Mick, sorry you feeling under the weather. You will build immunity handling grandchildren, trust me Lol
Your upcoming week sounds good & busy. Hope everything works out OK. I worked. Part time when my kids were little because daycare options here are not so great. I think we invented Daddycare, haha. When you come home from work you take care of the kids. It wasn’t easy with rotating shifts, etc. i was happy to get back to work after my kids were born, missed talking to adults!!!

Hello to all & wishing everyone a good day!

Monday afternoon & the first day of FALL, yay!!!
Sunny & 75 degrees, not bad at all except for all the allergens floating around out there. Looks like possible rain for the next 4 days. Just hope Saturday remains dry for the craft fair.

Mick, hope you feel better soon, take it easy for a day or two. If that's even possible LOL
the daffs will be awesome next Spring.

PQ, how did the BBQ go?
Pie & Cyn, what’s up with you two?

I need to get serious about packing up embroidery & making sure I have everything ready to go early Saturday morning. So that’s where I’ll be for the next few days, in my shop area & hopefully getting some cleaning & organizing done as well.

Have a great day all!
