I have to have a bit of a laugh again..... I think last time I posted a pic of my ute, just after I bought it, I commented that it was viewed/opened much more than any plant photo I had posted.  Looks like the same thing has happened this time.  Already been enlarged 28 times in just over 13 hours.  Beats any flower picture I've ever posted, hands down. :o
Cheers.

A whole week of no tidying up after hubby, no need to cook meals and no history programmes on TV. Bliss  ;D
Should just say hubby is just away abroad playing golf and who packed his case, got his euros and even cleaned his golf shoes for him.

Mmm. I must be doing something wrong? :-\ I don't play golf, pack my own case, cook most of the meals and clean all the shoes. Don't get the chance to watch the history channel, although I did watch "Mission Impossible - Ghost Protocol" tonight, but that was Vivienne's choice. Somehow 'Sex in the City II had been deleted from the Sky+  ::). I even do the weekly supermarket shop, but not this weekend, as I've cracked a rib (memo to self: if my son ever has a go-carting birthday party again, decline the offer of a turn). I even managed to avoid cutting the lawns today. They got cut, but not by me. 8)

But unfortunately my grandchildren live in America, so I don't get the chance to get exhausted.

So please be happy, you can. 😀😀😀

Yep exhausting is right and to think she will get up at 6.30 as well, maybe because I kept her up a wee bit longer she might sleep that little bit longer.

Lina one is enough especially as I am getting older. Cant cope like I used to. When I had Lola's mum it was never hard work but that was thirty years ago. I was unable t have children myself so I used to borrow everyone else's children for the weekends, good fun as I never had the teenage years to worry about.

I agree it is exhausting, when we are over there, I am in bed at ten. Not only because of the small children but also because of the language. To talk english makes very tired. But I would love to do it more often.

But this is the happy topic, so
I AM VERY HAPPY WITH FACE-TIME.

I hope, you 'll wake up a little later tomorrow, Angie.

No video of the rib-cracking incident as I only took video in the first fifteen minute session when I just watched.
