AN EVENTFUL DAY

 

ABOVE:  Darling Lily yesterday... she was just so delightful.  Full of beans, running around being super entertaining.

Then sadly, she ran into a metal staircase and dinged her head.

ABOVE:  Steve 'n' Bex took her to A&E, and she ended up with her forehead being glued and a couple of steri strips being applied.  Poor little darling.  She gave all of us a really big fright.

I am hoping to hear how her night went, and that she's not feeling too bad today.

Talking of today, I am sure we will have a visit from Mike and Joyce, before they head home later.

Stew has today off work, so we will get the other 'areas' ready for painting.  We don't have too much to do in that respect thankfully.

Certainly NOTHING like what I had to do in the lounge/dining/kitchen rooms.

We better get up soon... the painter will be here around 8.45 - 9 am.  

Catch ya later.

ONWARD...

3.30 pm, and clearly I've been a bit busy today, no time to get on here till now.

I went and bought some food for visitors, and a neck cone for Coco, she's gnawing her freakin' rump.  I put flea treatment on her, just in case it's fleas.  More likely grass seeds though.

ABOVE: Then at around 10 am, Lacy arrived, followed by Mike and Joyce, then Bex and the kids.

So we had a full house.

Lily slept well overnight, and seems none the worse for her nasty little accident.  

ABOVE: Beau just LOVES Coco... and luckily for him, she tolerates him quite well.

He just wants to play, she just wants to tease him by refusing.  

ABOVE: Dante and Archer got to stay home from school today, as they had a busy day yesterday, and didn't get to bed until quite late.

ABOVE: Beau is quite an attention seeking dog... he's rather lovely though.

ABOVE:  Coco got sick of him and took herself off to a corner.

We have lots of stuff in the lounge from our bedroom, the hallway and the toilet.

The painter has been working all day, and said he thinks he will be finished tomorrow.

That would be awesome.  I'm done having my house in a muddle.

After all our visitors left, I went down to the Community Centre for Craft Group.  I must have been tired, as I kept making absolutely dumb mistakes!

I did get this done :

ABOVE: A Green Kiwiana Braid Runner.  It is by no means finished yet, I have to add two more 'rows' of colours, sashings etc etc.

It's going to be beautiful once finished.  It is NOT that bright, the photo refused to show how deep dark green some of those fabrics are.  Grrrr.

I will continue working on it tomorrow.

Stew has been watching rugby on the telly while I've been out... he's happy.

Dinner tonight is going to be a savoury Cheese Scroll, with some baked beans!  Nice.
