TREE READY

I know I've already shown you my tree, but it was a blurry photo eh?  So, here it is in the light of day:

ABOVE: It looks a bit sad!  But I like it.
And that's all that matters.

ABOVE:  I've put the new 'Butlers Trolley' to good use too.    Pretty cool.

ABOVE:  Our youngest little grandson.. eating fruit by the look of it.  He's a chubby bubba... darling wee Archer.  Bex is always sending me little photos of the boys during the week.... she knows how much I miss seeing them all the time.

Today I shall be getting those puppy blankets sewn, I hope.  Because Tallulah was unwell I didn't feel like going down to the garage and sewing yesterday, so they still need to be done. 

Keera goes to Daycare this morning too... so I better get a move on.  The day awaits, and it's going to be a nice one.

Oh and I forgot, Steve is now in a 'moonboot' for the next 6 weeks.  He's a bit grumpy about being off work for another 6 weeks, but heck... he did do his ankle in pretty well!

ONWARD...

TIMING.  When would be the very best time to get a blocked kitchen drain?  Right before Christmas?

YEP.

Got a drain unblocker guy coming sometime this morning.  Hoping like hell it's an easy fix.  *sigh*

Can't imagine the nightmare if he has to dig up the drains...  

On a brighter note... everyone is doing well ... Tallulah is just fine, puppies are just fine, kids are... ASLEEP.  Typical.

Keera is at Daycare, so I can now get on with all the usual morning stuff.... beds, washing, vacuming, bla bla bla.

11.31 am:   Most jobs done.  Plus I gave Tallulah a bath, and a flannel wash for all the pups.  Put down new whelping pen bedding (a daily job) and now all is quiet.

I've roused the teenagers, and once they have eaten 'brunch' they have some jobs to do as well.

I can't believe how mucky the house can become in just a few days!  Seriously, ikkk.

ABOVE:  bloody hell... this is happening too fast!  He's only 7 months old!  What happened to our tiny little baby???

Must be our lucky day.  The tradesman arrived and fixed the gully trap in 30 seconds with a special plunger thingee!
So relieved... and I bet Stew will be too.

Well the rest of the day has been fairly standard.  Picked Keera up from Daycare and gave her dinner, prepared dinner for us (we eat later than her).
Stew got home a bit later than 'normal', but that was fine as his dinner just kept warm in the oven.
We had lamb chops and veges.  


Very quiet in Blogland today!   I suppose everyone is busy getting ready for Christmas and holidays.  Fair enough.  *smiles*
I reckon I'm the only mad tart who blogs daily, regardless of what time of year it is.

End of Day:  totally over the heat today.  It's been muggy (humid) and I hate that.
Looking forward to bed tonight.  Tired.
