BABYSITTING LILY

 

GOOD MORNING

Today my first 'job' is to head over to Steve and Bex's, as I am baby sitting Miss Lily while Bex attends an appointment.

After that, I will come home and get on with some jobs around the house.  

Now that I've decided not to make any more scrappy dolls, I think it's time to REALLY pack up the sewing room!  Like REALLY, REALLY put it all into boxes, tape them closed and put them in the garage.

Then I can vacuum, dust, clean windows, window sills etc and close the door.

That job will probably take me a good couple of hours.  So... 

Let's get a move on.  

12.25 pm:  I have had a very productive morning.

First up of course, was looking after the delightful Miss Lily.

15 minutes before Bex had to leave, Lily took a nose dive between the couch and chair, and dinged her forehead on the windowsill.

I was, of course, worried because she was so upset.  But her 'ding' was a big 'out', not an inny, so we could relax a bit.

She came right pretty quickly as well.

So off Bex went, and I was left with these two:

ABOVE: Marley sat at my feet almost the entire time.

ABOVE:  Lily sat and watched tv, and ate snacks ... she was perfectly happy.  I 'bleeped' out her ding, ya don't need to be seeing that. 

After leaving Bex and Lily, I went into town and bought a new dog door, which will be fitted the day after we move.  ANOTHER BIG TICK.

Then out to the Base, where I did my banking.  So thankful I wasn't in a queue for too long today.

It is now lunchtime.  After lunch I shall get on with packing up what's left in the sewing room.

ABOVE:  While there wasn't a lot left to pack up in here, it still took me two hours. 

ABOVE: While I am sad to be leaving behind my amazing sewing room, I will make my new 'space' in the garage just as awesome.   Said with some healthy scepticism.  😕😖  It's not like I ain't done my sewing in a garage before eh?

I'm tired now, so will take a break. My leg is holding up well today, still a bit sore when I walk, but on a scale of 1 - 10, it's around a 3.  Progress is slow but steady.

5 pm and the sun is low... it's getting dark already.  I just did a very quick supermarket run.  I only wanted some rice snacks.  Have enough to last quite a few days now.  NOTE TO SELF:  Don't damn well use the self check out!  Because I'd bought from the Bulk Bins, the staff member 'manning' the self check outs had to come over and scan and approve every single item himself. Quite pointless me even trying to do it myself and avoid the queues.  😠😞

Bitching over... moving on.  I'm looking forward to a quiet evening.  It is only Tuesday and I already feel like it should be Friday.

Hanging out for me bed... but have to friggin watch Coronation Street first.  I wanted so much to give up Coronation Street, but damn well can't.  It's ingrained in me.

Catch ya tomorrow.
