Quiet Week?

You think you are going to have a quiet week where you can get lots done and then the Universe decides you need some more challenges!  On Saturday the Plumber arrived to service our boiler and check the gauge but he could not get it to start again!  The makers of the boiler had to come out and try and fix it and they could not come until today, so we had no heating and no hot water!  DH decamped to a hotel on Sunday evening next door to where his customer visit was in the Lake District and Coco and I hunkered down at home.  

Sunday was a lovely warm day again so we got more jobs done in the garden.  Below we have planted four plants behind the deck at the top of  our garden and they are all evergreen so will look really good against the fence once they grow a little bit. 

So because we had no hot water and heating we were not able to have our friends round for dinner but we went out to the local pub instead for a meal.  It was a lovely evening, we had a good catch up as we had not seen them since Christmas.  

This week and weekend is going to be Spring Cleaning as we have a three day weekend so we can get a lot done.  We are babysitting Little Man on Friday as his Mummy and Daddy are going out on a Date Night to see the new movie “Michael”.  Saturday, Sunday and Monday will be busy though. 

Tomorrow I have to get all my washing and ironing done as the engineer is coming to fix the washing machine on Thursday!  I told you it was one of those weeks.  Thursday I will be getting my home jobs done as well because Friday day we are at Eldest’s doing his work.  

This Friday I will do our Friday Book Club, sorry it’s late, the flip side is that I have read more books!!! 

Happy Tuesday you lovely lot.  Hugs & Love, Susie & Coco  xx

This was Monday morning, Coco did not want to get up!!!!

    Oh, my days!! You have really had one of those weeks!!! It seems like when something breaks, other things decide they can stop working as well!! I refuse to do cold showers, so I would be heating water in the kettle and doing what my mom called a “spit bath” with a washcloth. Or use baby wipes like Kiddo #2 does out in the field. When will you teach Eldest’s partner to do the paperwork for his business? She should learn beside you now so that in the distant future when you are not there, Eldest isn’t fumbling around trying to figure it out! She watches you, then she does it while you watch and direct, then you can cross that off your to-do list except for those once a quarter, once a year things that you tend to forget when you first start doing books. I hope you enjoyed a long, hot bath (can you get out of the bathtub with your hip??) when you finally got hot water! xo FQ
