Good morning all from a cloudy Glasgow.
Certainly not this sunny place everyonekeeps mentioning.
I'm glad to see you back Urms and GM, that your organisation is going well.
Despite my intentions to behave, yesterday turned out to be very busy.
I had just got up to get dressed, when SIL came up to tell me the utility room was flooded,? Where was Mr MD, when you needed him? On the golf course, where else!
SIL had decided to put out the washing for me and noticed it. I knew it would be the drain, because we are doing so much washing at the moment. I hen realised why, it was misbehaving, there were TWO loads of washing in it! ?
I sent SIL back to work and cleaned it up. After I got dressed, I noticed SIL had put out the washing, apart from two items left in the machine, my underwear! He was obviously too embarrassed to put it out. ?
The house was in chaos, with all the plumbing work, when the Ebay Queen came across. I knew she couldn't resist, coming over to speak to MY plumber ?.
The plumber whispered to me in the kitchen, is that your friend, who always nabs your workmen?
He had just finished and said, he would come and look at her leak.
I was itching to put everything back in order after the plumber left and my bank account considerably lighter, when she appeared back to finish her conversation! ?
She insisted on going through the back door to check our new decking, which she has been itching to see for the last year.
SIL, was standing stunned, as he had never seen her in action!
It was so funny watching her inspecting it and stroking the steel posts.?
The Queen had just left, when a whirlwind arrived. DS1 and DD1 had been subjected without respite, to non stop talking Dollie (her gran's mini- me) on holiday, for over a week and they were begging for a reprieve, they could take no more.
I think they actually wanted an excuse to check up on me.
We sent them away for a couple of hours, much to Dollie's absolute joy.
They had just arrived back when a phone call from the surgery came. My bloods were back and I need to come and pick up an urgent prescription. I said I didn't think I would make it in time before they closed, because I would need to drive to Paisley.
She insisted I come.
At that point, DS got up and said, I will take you mum. This meant Dollie had a reprieve and could spend more time with her adoring public!
DS treated me like a China doll, it highly amused me. He asked why I was laughing, I said it reminded me of taking my mother out! Now I needed a carer.? I was quite tearful ( in a nice way), I never get time alone with him.
We just made it to the pharmacy, as they were about to close. The pharmacist laughed and said, How many times have you been in here this week? Four?.
If I feel OK later, DD is going to take me out to get a few bits and pieces. Apart from the doctor's and pharmacy, I haven't been out for three weeks.
The sun has just broken through the clouds, so a good omen for a pleasant day.
Wishing you all a pleasant Sunday and hopefully stress free Saturday.
Once again, thank you all for all your good wishes.
