Out In The Fresh Air!

I was once so poor I didn't know where my next husband was coming from - Mae West

Welcome to my hectic Sunday 💫

No chance of a lie-in, so much to do.

Breakfast with Brew.

On goes the thermal vest.

Dressed.

My older son decides to take part in the Couch to 5k.

He was dragging his heels for a lift.

Our Robin says hello, while we wait...

Off we go.

Drops son off.

Now to say hello to my parents.

Then off to check the tyres.

Off to ScrewFix...

Back home.

Coffee time.

Then we start tidying up the Dining Room and sorting out my 1950's cabinet.

My older son painted his room with Anti-Mould paint. However he had moved all his stuff into his brother's room and was in no hurry to move it back in! 

The Cabin has to be taken down.

He doesn't open his windows...

I can't get to his windows to open them as he doesn't put his things away in the Cabin Bed!

The lovely curtains I made for him, he threw away as well as the net curtains I put up!

I had to rescue the plant he also threw away.

The Mould now had taken hold of his Cabin Bed.

So after spending £275 it will have to go :( :(

Both sons having a go at each other, then the older one having a go at me!

Time for some liquid refreshment!

Still arguing at each other, hubby and I go and fetch a Magic bag from Morrisons.

Then to do a bit of shopping at Lidl.

Already got a microwave.

Gets back home to unload the shopping.

My older son is still dragging his heels on getting his room sorted. Now he is refusing to sleep in his room!

Better get the tent out and sleep outside in the front garden!

In the end he goes and sleeps over at our friend's house.

His rooms stops the same!

Shopping put away.

Then the tea is made!

Nice Pork Tea!

Yum.

Quick look into today's newspaper.

Welcome to my Thursday 💣💥

Breakfast.

Dressed.

We were up really early as we were expecting the delivery of my son's cabin bed.

We didn't have to wait long.

3 heavy boxes containing the bits of bed.

The delivery man carried one box on his own to our door.

I don't know what he thought when he saw hubby and I trying to lift one box and struggling!

Now to get the kids up to take down the bed my son is sleeping in, and clear out his room.

6 black bags and counting....

While I wrote yesterday's blog post.

Hubby walked to the newspaper shop to fetch the newspaper.

Coffee time!

Both sons were putting the cabin bed together.

I put the washing machine back on....

I tidied up in the kitchen and living room.

Another Prima Makes magazine arrived \o/

Nice easy lunch.

Hubby went over to see his dad and add some lovely things to his late mum's grave.

I meanwhile had some pom poms to make.....

Tea at 3.

I made 11 pom poms until I ran out of wool!

I am waiting now for the delivery of wool now....

Hubby's mum grave is looking nice.

(The brown lining will be replaced with black weed barrier soon)

The solicitor sorting out the estate of my late dad's is now waiting for the house to be signed off.Then will take YET MORE WEEKS for THEM do the final settlement of what each sibling is getting and how much the Solicitors and Estate Agents fees are...

(I dread to think what their fees are going to be!)

The buyer of the house is dragging their feet on signing the papers and returning them to their Solicitor.....!!

It looking like July or August before this gets sorted!!!!

Now for tea!

I looked inside today's newspaper.
