Good morning all from a showery Glasgow, where it is 13°C.
So pleased to read you are home Susan.♥️
Roses, there is an abundance of bramles here too, the are huge and much earlier than usual.
If I feel well enough, I may make bramble jelly.
I have had little sleep again and am counting the minutes until the next dose of painkillers. Due to this, I have cancelled my trip to Silverburn. Also, I have a medical appointment this afternoon, so will take it easy.
Yesterday started off badly. DS2 arrived earlier than usual, with a very distressed Babydoll. She has suddenly developed separation anxiety and won't let him out of her sight. Eventually, I insisted he leave for work, that it wasn't the first time I had had to deal with this type of behaviour, he was exactly the same. Poor DS and DH were very upset, I am a hard woman I just went into teacher mode and used distraction techniques.
Within five minutes, she was in the kitchen, happily chattering away, insisting on organising her own breakfast.
I suggested to DH, that we walk her round to the farm to see the horses and baby calves. He wanted to put her in the buggy, but I knew she would fall asleep. She had her umbrella to use as a walking stick, she loves to copy me.
As we passed the fire station, she called out for Fireman Sam and became very annoyed, when there was no sign of him..
The fire men/women, will usually wave to her, if the doors are open.
After fifteen minutes, she said STOP , climbed into the buggy and promptly fell asleep. I suggested we didn't mention the nap to DIL, who would not have approved!!!🤣
DH surpassed himself yesterday. We have had to contact the factor, who manages the common land, to get the trees trimmed, which are overhanging out roof.
As were going out with Babydoll, a tree surgeon drove by. He stopped when he saw DH looking at him. I was ahead with BabyD and saw him disappearing round to our back garden.
He was away for ages, so I decided to go back because I didn't trust DH.😉.
I heard the tree surgeon telling DH what needed to be done and suggesting he could deal with some trees on our property, quoting an eye watering sum,
When I said the bill had to go to the factor, the tree surgeon said, that he was not dealing with them, we had to pay.
It was then that I realised that DH was dealing with a random tree surgeon, who was just passing by. He was NOT, the official one. DH refused to admit, that he could not be trusted!
He is a liability.🤣
Later BabyD was playing in the garden with DH, when he came to tell me, that Dollie, who was next door at her other grandparents, had climbed the fence and came and gave BabyD a hug. Baby was delighted.
Of course, DH, being DH did not tell me, until Dollie was gone! 🤬
I wish you all a pleasant day, whatever your plans and safe travels to all, who are on the move.
