Lovely avatars, Ladies :-)

Living room now all washed down, thank goodness. We have to do this room next, but will wait until our muscle ache has subsided! Then we'll have to hire a steam carpet cleaner/ Who's idea was it to get a light coloured carpet? (me :-( )

Afternoon all.

I set about 'autumn' cleaning my kitchen this morning!! I am full of bright ideas lol! :-D I haven't stopped since 8.30 this morning, so decided it was time for a lunch break, albeit a little late!!

I don't mind wearing myself out today as I have a day's holiday tomorrow. The engineer is coming to look at the washer/dryer in the morning so I can either chill a bit after he has gone, or carry on with the unmentionables!! Also have Friday afternoon off this week as I have worked some overtime, so going to opticians at long last.

I was hoping to trim round the edges of the grass while the sun was out, but Steptoe is lurking again!! Perhaps I will get chance when he has gone!!

Hi Maz. The grass here is too wet to cut with the mower, although it is only the edges that need doing and I was going to do it with the long handled shears just to tidy it up. I might get chance tomorrow if the weather holds.

I've just made a stew and put in the oven, so dinner is going to be late tonight!! I will keep on with the chores until my programmes start on tv :-D

YG

YG Report 16 Oct 2011 18:33

I hope it doesn't grow Maz!! Although I am not looking forward to the frosts that will keep it prevent it growing.

Managed to get the edges trimmed and have just had a short rest as my back wasbreaking! Off for a bath now, while dinner finished cooking.

Hi all. I have returned. Can't find my brain, haven't unpacked, and think I am supposed to be at work today.

Re the putt putt. Stupid game. They wouldn't let me pick the ball up and put it in the hole. I had to use a silly golf club type thing. If the object is to get the ball in the hole, picking ball up and placing in hole saves heaps of time. I did score one hole in one. That was the time I was so over the whole process I just took a swipe at the ball and in it went. I'll stick to underwater basket weaving for my game preference thank you.

Sorry I've interfered with your weather pattern. (No I'm not, because if it is getting colder there it must be warming up here). I think it will be in the mid 20s here today.

Well I must away and see if I can find my wardrobe and the bathroom. I don't think my productivity will be at its peak today. Too bad, I'll fake it. Catch you later.

Fingers and everything anatomically possible is crossed for you Maz. XXXXX

Morning all - good to see you back Aunty. And hopefully you didn't make any boo-boos at work today. Did your friends rumble the dress-cheat ;-)

Glad to hear that someone is pleased with a sporting result. You can't win 'em all.

YG Why don't you confront Steptoe next time he is lurking? Presumably you can both be civil and you could ask him why he is apparently watching you.

Not sure what we are up to today. I don't think my shoulder has recovered enough for a new onslaught of washing down.

Morning all, All the best of luck for ,ater Maz, fingers and everything else crossed for you.

Well the celebrations will continue here at lunchtime as the mini Gooners will be here for a short while. The flaga are flying high :-D :-D :-D :-D

Hi everybody, it's bright and sunny today but very cold. The dew on the wheelie bin lid was frozen when I put it out the front at about 5.30 and was just starting to melt by 9.30.

Winter is very near!!

Good luck Maz, I hope everything goes well for you.

Have a good day everyone. :-) :-) :-)

Hi all, Warm, warm, warm and sunny here today. Short sleeves. Yuk, Yuk!!

Tomorrow high 20s, next day 31. Ooooooooh yes, bring it on.

The dress. Hmmmm I discover I was not the only bender of the rules. One other secretly confessed to wearing an archival garment from the family vault, and curiously enough I saw another's exact same gown in a dress shop window. Oh well I can't always take credit for these brilliant ideas.

I am having trouble with my gmail. Unauthorised activity. I can not access one of my accounts. Thank goodness it is only the one I use for Ancestry and GRs junk mail. I am running a virus scan a their request, to detect malware. So far it has found nothing. Oh well retrieving access to the account will keep me entertained for a while.

Must away. Did you all notice how unwonderfully Australia played against NZ in the rugby. Yep. We did too.

Evening all.

I hope everything went well for you this afternoon Maz and that you have good news.

DET, I cannot bring myself to confront him. I haven't had any contact at all for the last eleven months and don't want to start anything off again. If I was sensible, I would just get on with what I have to do and forget that he is there. Winter is drawing in and that will hopefully halt his trips!

Well I managed to get the washer repaired this morning and spent the day finishing the unmentionables. All done now and I feel good, but kn***ered!!
