Have you come out of hiding, CT!!! That is very brave of you. I think LG must be stuck with her head in the washing machine :-D :-D

As soon as she is finished with the washing I'll be off YG!

I can only cope with one lecture in a day. Are you going to stick it out and face the music?

She's probably only pretending to do the washing, I think she's got the paintbrush at the ready!

YG Report 17 Aug 2013 22:24

:-D :-D :-D :-D You could be right!!

I bet it will be a devil of a job to get that sheep's fleece off the walls!!

I'm running off in a minute, although I don't think LG will have a chance to catch up until tomorrow. :-)

Morning all - It's a good day for drying the washing on the line. Before LG knows it, she'll be needing another holiday to get over this one :-D

(Psst CT. Did you hide the decorating tools? We don't want her undoing all your hard work!)

Maz - hope your shift was peaceful last night and that you managed to get some sleep.
YG - don't knock yourself out today trying to catch up on chores, and stick to your guns about the hours you work next week. Don't let them grind you down!

(the decorating tools are well hidden)

I'd better make myself scarce ;-)

exit stage left, scarpers as fast as my little legs will carry me >>>>>>>>>>>>>

................. creeping in on all fours to see if the coast is clear :-D :-D

That ragged old throne doesn't look very good in here now it has all been freshly redecorated. About time it had some new matching covers made (but without the glitter, as it could be a bit scratchy for the nether regions!!!)

I see Cuddles & Huddles are still stuffed to the brim. That will keep them quiet for some time yet. :-D :-D

I am pacing myself today, DET.

I dread going back for several reasons, but one in particular is that one of my line managers has just accepted a different role and will be taking that up at the beginning of September. I don't know whether they have started recruiting yet to replace her and life is going to be very difficult until that happens. The one consolation is that she will still be around in the office, so if I am stuck with anything I can at least go and ask for an answer :-( :-(

The sun is shining and it is a lovely day here again with a good week promised weather wise.

Just having my brekkie, then scurrying off to hide again :-D :-D

Hi Maz.

I don't think my fur will be too happy tomorrow when he is on his own again. He has spent plenty of time out in the garden and is just getting used to it :-D :-D

I have been a really good girl today and caught up on the outstanding unmentionables. The ironing basket is almost empty and I have edged the front lawn to finish off the shape that I was making :-D :-D My eye candy is coming tomorrow to weed and cut the grass at the front. What a shame I won't be in :-D :-D :-D

I've been peeking at you, LG! Good job you haven't spilled any paint on the dance floor :-P :-P

I am always careful not to waste beloved red paint :-D. How are you YG ? I was so tired last night I fell asleep on sofa :-|

YG

YG Report 18 Aug 2013 21:34

I thought you might have done :-D :-D You must have worn yourself out on holiday!!

You are not the only one!! Not last night, but I have fallen asleep many nights whilst I've been off and in the afternoon as well. I have been totally idle.

LaGooner

LaGooner Report 18 Aug 2013 21:36

We have been far from idle, we must have walked miles :-D

YG

YG Report 18 Aug 2013 21:48

Good for you!! When it's lovely scenery it is worthwhile and very enjoyable.

The gp has told me to start doing more walking, so while the weather holds up it looks as though lunch times might be taken up walking round the lake near the office :-D :-D That's as good as it's going to get at the moment :-D :-D

LaGooner Report 18 Aug 2013 21:52

Well that will be very pleasant YG and good for your health. I did have to resort to using my stick towards the end of the two weeks. I usually only use it about the house and garden on a really bad day :-|

YG

YG Report 18 Aug 2013 22:04

There's nothing to be ashamed of there, LG. I think you did really well to hold out till almost the end of the holiday considering the amount of walking you did.

You deserve to rest it up a bit now.

Bet the mini gooners are pleased to see you again :-D :-D :-D

They were unbearable :-D. Settled today as we spent time in the garden chalking on the path and blowing bubbles to name but 2 of our mad moments ;-). I forgot all about my flagon of scrumpie until my son turned up and we had a glass or so :-D :-D :-D :-D
