Project 365 Week 46 9th - 15th November

Sunday

I got up with a slightly sore throat, but had no throat lozenges in the house, Felt fine apart from that, but by lunchtime my throat was quite sore. So in my break I went and bought some along with some paracetamol.   By 4pm I was flagging and felt like going home, but I made it to seven. 

*Other makes and supermarkets are available

Monday

Woke up feeling yucky and dizzy. So had a day mostly in bed. Was sitting looking at my slippers and thinking how well they have lasted and whether buying cheap is false economy. I won these, their selling price £30. Normally I spend a tenner on something similar. I find it my ankles rather than my feet that feel the cold. My £10 pair last me a year, thought they are probably past their best before the year. But so far I have had three years out of these, and still plenty of life left in them yet. Maybe rich people stay rich cos by buying better they need replacing less.

Tuesday

Next Tuesday is Fifi's twelve birthday. She has requested a rainbow cake, hollowed out, with skittles in the middle. I can not find the gel colours I had before, all the colours seem so muted. So I tried some others, but can't get the vibrant colours I want. So muted colours it is. Feeling much better by this evening. 

Wednesday


Wednesday night is the evening daughter brings the gruesome twosome round. Dinky is getting really really bad and mummy cant move for her, If she puts her down she just cries. I did have a picture of the wee soul stood at the glass door in the living room when mummy went into the kitchen to get a coffee.She could see mummy but sobbed and sobbed. But decided to share this one of Minky amusing granddad by sitting in a box and letting granddad push him round the floor. Its a hard life being nearly one.

Thursday

The decorating continues. Everything from on top of the cupboard as well as across the other side of the kitchen was piled up on this side. No room to move. But the papering is finished. Have to say it certainly brightens the place up, and makes it lighter. Just need to get a few small strip lights to put under the cupboards to shine on the work tops. 

The children were round tonight, but I did not have the camera upstairs when we were playing wii and card games. 

Friday

Fifi's turn for the glasses this time. She had found at the big school she could not see the interactive boards from the back of the classroom, so she went for an eye test and this is the result. She looks good in these. 

Saturday

Eventually, the fence that blew down in the storms a year ago is going back up. The girls will get out a bit more now that the garden is securer. 

Have to say the company who did the work were really good, and very reasonable, So if your local and looking for fencing, landscaping or tree surgery work give me a shout as based on what they did for us I would recommend them.
