What A Week and Weekend!

They have gone!  Youngest, Fiance and Blaze have moved into their new home.  It started on Thursday with them getting the keys so cleaning was done first and then the move of all the furniture and things they have bought. By yesterday they were all set up with a few jobs left to do like finishing putting their clothes into the wardrobes.

The home is lovely with a sitting room, kitchen with a dining area, garden and garage with three bedrooms and bathroom upstairs.  It is also very near to some of our friends and also next door but one to some friends of theirs.


Of course their room here is now empty and Coco has taken to playing in there with her tennis ball!  We are going to paint it over the Easter break and then get furniture for it and set it up as a guest room for Youngest & Fiance or Eldest & Partner, who have also said that it can be for when Little Man can sleep over.  Of course they will all be fighting over it with Coco who no doubt will also lay claim to it!!!  I think I will be having a waiting list.

Of course I did not get anything else done at home over the weekend for us including the cleaning, washing & ironing.  We also had a swimming event on the Saturday night, locally fortunately, but DH and I did not get home until 11.00pm!  It has been one of those weekends.  I am glad to be at my desk today working!

It is a fairly quiet week but next weekend is busy again with DH out on Saturday at a swimming event all day, which is the same for every weekend in March (!), and Sunday the family are all here as it is Fiance’s Birthday a week today so we are celebrating on Sunday instead.

This is where I will be spending Saturday and the other days that DH is swimming, as I have two quilts which need to be completed by May!  I also have a few others which need to be completed this year too.  I am sure I will find time to get them done.

I am sure that Miss Coco will be helping by keeping me company whilst I am in there and she loves my chair.

We are all getting used to it being just the three of us at home.  Eldest asked me how long it has been since it was just DH and I and I said well how old are you?  That is how long it has been since we have been on our own and this year it will be 30 years!!!  OMG where has that gone?  I will have to get used to buying food for just the two of us and also not cooking huge amounts as again just the two of us!!!  I am sure I will get the hang of it although it will take a while for me to get used to it just being the two of us again.

I hope you lovely lot had a wonderful weekend, a great week to come.  I am hoping to be back to blogging every day now. 

Hugs & Love, Susie, DH & Coco xxx

    The house will seem empty and quiet without Youngest and Fiance there. Blaze’s absence will be noticed…you may need to get a cat for Coco!! It’s definitely different, but so nice to start this chapter of your life! Are they in the same town or just close by? Have fun setting up a guest room!!

    It’s nice when the kids move and start a new life of their own but it can be lonely unless you see a lot of them and I hope you do!
    I love your mom’s chair, Coco, and I hope you share it with her. Something tells me with her work schedule that she doesn’t have much time for sitting!
