Project 365 week 46

Made a start on some Christmas shopping as was in buying birthday presents for the twins for next week.

Sunday

The virus scan on the computer did not find anything yesterday, so today formatted it, but that still did not help. Tried disabling the keyboard but it wanted to restart to disable it - and then re-enables it upon reboot....it was going to get launch into the bin the mood I was in. It was opening literally hundreds of pages of Microsoft Edge windows 10 help files.




Monday

Having given up with the computer yesterday today hubby blasted the keys with a cleaner and I attacked it with a paint brush, that seems to have worked so so far so good. In other news I sewed the cross stitch designs onto Spud's blanket and walked the dog round the fishery in between torrential down pours. The swans are still giving each other much aggro.





Tuesday

DD2 is down for a few days. Has an appointment to see the consultant and have another scan to book in to have this baby at our local hospital.  Makes ,more sense than anywhere else.
My electric bike went back. Sadly barely been out on it with one thing and another.
It has rained and rained here this week, this flowing water is normally no more than a trickle in the dip and not usually even visible. This trench is about 4 ft deep. Never seen it as high as this.






Wednesday

Lots of jigsaw puzzle and dancing fun with Ziggy. She manages them very well indeed for somebody who has just turned two.
Won four tickets to see Mr Poppers Penguin in Glasgow so will take the twins to see this show. Much easier by bus and train considering it costs £10 to get your car back out the car park up there. They will enjoy the train experience as much as the show.






Thursday

Off to soft play with Ziggy and DD2 and met up with her MIL and SIL.



Friday

Today is DD3's 30th birthday. She is away to do Harry Potter stuff in London and then a few days away in Amsterdam.
 We went to do some shopping and walk the dog around the beach park in Irvine.
DD2 spent quite a bit of the day at DD1's house helping with bits and pieces for the twins party tomorrow.
I baked Fifi's cake, she turns 16 on Sunday, Going to get Ziggy to help decorate it tomorrow night. Ziggy managed to fall down the bottom two stairs and landed on the side of her head on my hall floor, which is concrete with laminate on top, gave herself a huge fright and me as well.




Saturday

Today was the twins party. They will be 5 on Wednesday. The Entertainer is a family friend and makes for a great party. Think everybody seemed to enjoy it. They did really well with both prsents and money.

  1. Ugh! Sorry you are having computer troubles. I know the feeling well. I think we are both due a new one. Mine has decided now not to play videos in colour. lol Thankfully all the other colour is working. Phew!
    Swans are so savage. They scare me.
    Well done on the Mr Poppers Penguin win!
    Happy birthday to everyone.
    Poor Ziggy. I hope she's OK. What a fright for you both.

    1. swans can be very aggressive and we are careful the dog does not get to close for that reason.

  2. Wow, Can't believe the twins are 5 now! Hope Ziggy's head was ok after the fall. Always scary when they bang their heads. N used to be terrible for doing it.

    1. too many birthdays this month could do without them financially. Ziggy loves the jigsaws and manages the 24 piece ones but gets bored time the bigger Thomas one is completed.

  6. That must be so frustrating with the computer! Hope the twins had a lovely birthday, not to mention Fifi and DD3! It must be nice to have DD2 and Ziggy to stay. Glad she was OK after her fall!

  7. What a palaver with your computer. It is so frustrating when things don't work. The swans shot is a great capture. My sons both loved puzzles at this age.
    Happy belated birthday to your daughter and Fifi!
