Project 365 week 3 and 4

Have done a post on the time DD2 and family were down. If you want to pop across and read it and see a pile of new baby pictures feel free and pop across here . Just going to do a very short sentence with each photo for week 3 on here.

This fortnight has passed in a blur. I missed the fact hubby and I have been together 25 yrs this month, married for 17 years this yr, no idea how we have made it so long but we have. Dixie dog passed her first year anniversary with us as well. She was a good investment

Sunday

Managed to pick up a magazine linked with the #walk1000miles.




Monday

Made the most of the weather and wandered off for a nice walk.







Tuesday

Ziggy is catching up with some work on her computer









Wednesday

We went up in the afternoon to visit and to meet Jenna, blog name Roo.




Thursday

They came home today. Dog is not keen on a crying baby. Ziggy helps to open Roo's presents and some for her as well.






Friday

Ziggy gives cuddles to her new baby sister







































Saturday

Ziggy helps to wash down Roo who had been a bit sick.








Sunday

SIL was up with Roo who had not slept much again overnight so he had brought her down so her mum could get an hours sleep. Feel she is going home far to early, it is a long drive five days after a c section but she is determined to go.




This week has been spent playing catch up with all sorts that has been neglected in the last  few weeks. Been a fairly lazy week with little mileage added to my 1000 miles

Monday

Took delivery of a new washing machine and freezer on Saturday. Sadly the rubber seal on the freezer door has a large gap now we have turned the door round. It should be a simple five minute job and four of us tried it, the holes on the bracket do not line up. I know we are doing it right as I put it back to factory fit and it went back no problem. Need to wait until next Tuesday for an engineer to come and look at it, they won't replace it as faulty until it has been checked. Sadly it needs to be opening from the left to fit in the gap. This is a huge pain as I needed to fill it with meals for hubby next week as I am heading to DD2's to help out for ten days. You normally pay for somebody to come and turn your door round but they have assured us we will not get charged.
We now also have an engineer booked to look at the washing machine as I am sure the door catch is faulty as it needs to be closed numerous times before it starts.





Tuesday

A lovely afternoon, no wind and a great walk round the fishery just before sunset, such lovely colours. No filters needed.







Wednesday

Over night snow and a freezing cold day A cold walk round the fishery in the afternoon. Love the patterns in the ice on the surface of the pond. Looks a bit like a map of the UK.








Thursday

I had promised Spud we would go to play in the park and to McD's, and so today I kept that promise.
Not sure she was overly impressed with McD's but we had plenty of fun in the park.
Was lovely to spend time with her.





Dog had her annual booster injections and another check up of her teeth which are beginning to cover in plaque again already.


Friday

Have been putting off replacing pants, socks and joggies, but finally got round to it today. Hardly an exciting buy but much needed and them dumped a lot of old ones in the bin.
The suitcase is down ready to be packed for Monday.







Saturday

Total mileage up to 103.5 miles not bad in 20 days considering how busy I have been. Just over 5 miles a day so will more than do the 1000 at this rate. This is probably half normal every day activity and half conscious going out and walking steps.
This map came with the magazine and you colour your way up the country, one are per ten miles, so got ten coloured.

  1. Welcome to Roo! Love the photos of Ziggy with her. Well done to you on all your miles, you will get to that 1000 in no time. Such a beautiful photo of the fishery.
    Me and my husband are similar to you and your husband - we will have been together 26 years in May this year and we've been married 18 and a half.

  4. Welcome to baby Roo! And a happy anniversary to you and your husband!
    Ziggy and baby look adorable together.
    What a palaver with the freezer door, hope it's been sorted. The fishery view is so beautiful, and so are the ice patterns.
    Having my Mum around when Eddie was born was such a great help for me, and I imagine your daughter must be also so grateful for all the help from you and the family.
