I had my first visit to my favourite garden centre this year, went with daughter and Molly, after coffee and cakes, we had a wander, still loads of Christmas stuff at reduced prices, which I'm not interested in. I did get one packet of seeds, I did say I would not bother with sweet-peas, but seeing so many people starting their seeds, I gave in and this mixed pack was purchased.
I've finished my second book, I have set myself a target to try new authors, this book I have seen recommended by a couple of people, it's not a style I would normally read, a good plot set in a small US town, a few twists which kept it interesting. I will read another book written by this author.
This little lady is turning my hubby into her slave, each morning she waits outside our bedroom door, to be let in our room, hubby pops her on our bed, never has a cat been allowed in bedrooms before. He has got her 4 new food dishes, finally the last dish she is happily using, plus loads of toys, and we are getting her Sheba brand of food. She does sit on my lap most evenings, she has settled in well, next week I will get an appointment for her to meet our vet.
Yesterday was terrible for daughter, school called, George had hurt his foot, so she collected him and took him to a walk in centre for an x-ray, which found he has bruising. When trying to get out the carpark she knocked a bollard and damaged her car. I got Will from school with Molly in the worst snowy rain storm, we all got soaked, Molly had a melt down when we got home, which did not help.
We have been looking for new phones, after looking at contracts, we again have purchased new phones with separate sim only contracts, it's a huge upfront cost, but with better savings over the coming 24 months. We hope to be able to sell our old phones. We have also changed our broadband, we had been with 'ee' for a few years, they renewed our contract 18 months ago when we had them in to sort an issue, they did not tell us before or after, we only found out last year when we went to change providers. So I have been sorting my phone, swapping photo's onto my desktop and removing lots of things I no longer use, ready for the swap out.
Nothing much doing here, most days this week have been cold and dry, except yesterday, we are staying at home in the warm, ensuring Lilly has company through the day. This coming weekend will be the same, again hopefully dry, I hope to soak and start my sweet-peas.
I get hand me down mobile phones from family members who are on contract and get new phones every year. I pay monthly for my top. It's thick with frost here today. I might get some jobs done outside on the veg plot?
ReplyDeleteWe never get the latest models at the highest prices, just a slight upgrade, no plans to be outside today, I will soak my sweet-pea seeds to start them.
DeletePoor George! The beginning of term can be very trying and tiring.
ReplyDeleteLilly is such a pretty kitten and obviously has winning ways!
Daughter is taking George to the walk in centre again to have his other foot checked, he is still limping.
DeleteMy folks are trying to sort out their mobile phones too - somehow they've been cut off although still paying bills, something to do with an upgrade and needing new sims. So my son who is a whizz with phones is off to sort their problems out - thank goodness for son!
ReplyDeleteSo very sorry that George hurt himself, and I do hope the damage wasn't to great on your daughters vehicle.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
Just the car door, it does look a mess,
DeleteYour daughter is having a rough time just now and poor George. Lilly is absolutely gorgeous. How could you refuse that face anything.
