Yawn ... wakey, wakey ... (2)

Good morning everyone.

Survived Halloween, we had roughly 75 kids, so down a little bit from last year.

Going to go out soon and take down the decorations and later, go and cut the pine and cedar branches for my window boxes, and cut some dogwood too.

Cool but sunny here so far.

 

evening penny and everyone, ive taken my halloween decorations down today, had a scary thing happen today the wind has really got up and the scaffolding is still up as the workers are still doing the flat roof heard this almighty banging and saw some big white like boards fly off the roof and landed right on the path at the front of my property just missed my car, so i went down and removed them all off the path in case they hit my car as the wind was moving them all over anyway called the council, council mmmm they didnt do a thing the guy just said ill pass your message on.
nite nite all

 

Good morning Woo and all.

So nice to 'see' you on here darling Woo I hope this day finds you as well as can be & I send my love to you & all your lovely girls.:luv:

Rosa blinking heck girl your council needs to get their act sorted out I'll find my steel cappers & come give them a good kick up the butt for you honey!

It must have been really horrific for you hearing all that banging & seeing how close the boards got to your car it's just not on really it isn't....maybe you should refuse to pay your rent until those boards are down maybe then 'they' will work quicker!

Penny glad you had a good Halloween I enjoy it much better than Christmas if I'm honest because I don't decorate the outside of the house for Christmas but I love doing it for Halloween & then there's the kiddies all dressing up & of course ME too!:hehe:

Rosa still not able to load the pictures up to be honest I haven't used Photobucket for a while but I get the pictures up no problem they will just not copy onto here...they are not 2 big or anything like that is all quite maddening!

Busy kind of day today quick cuppa then I'm off.
Have a nice day guys.Hel.xxx.

 

good morning woo and everyone, the wind has dies down not bad out there just been down to see workers its going to take at least 3 weeks till roof finished and it depends on weather iff its raining they cant do it, give the worker his boards back he said they found a load down the street.
have a nice day all

 

morning helen we posted same time, as you will have read about workers the boards are polysyrene so he said they wouldnt do any damage to my car.

have a nice day

 

Good morning everyone.

Its a little cool and raining here, more like drizzle, but rain none the less.

Everything is cleaned up and thrown out from Halloween, and i went yesturday and cut all my dogwood, cedar and pine branches to start my window box this week, they are calling for snow for 3 days for us starting on Thursday, so i am glad that i did get them yesturday.
I'll probably do my Christmas lights this week too, and thats one more thing done.

 

Morning everyone.

Having a bit of a lazy day today as I still don't feel 100%.Mr K is off work today so we have taken Myrtle to the garage for her MOT and then took our winter sleeping bags to be cleaned at a nearby laundrette as they are too big {44oz} to go in our washing machine:D

Just been having a nice relaxing read while Mr K has been busy in the kitchen preparing a nice beef casserole for dinner so that should slip down nicely.I can't remember the last time he cooked us a meal so it is something to look forward to:gnthb:

The sun is hsining out there and apart from a chill in the air earlier it is a beautiful day out there with hardly any breeze:D

Hope you all enjoy this lovely Autumn day and that you get lots of things done with some rest inbetween:luv:

 

good morning everyone, weather is teribble here this morning pouring down so thats another day the roof will not be getting done i do hope this will be finished this month as i dont want to keep looking at this scaffolding to the run up to xmas.
shiney seen your pics of the pheasants they are lovely nice colours well done.
kandy nice to hear mrk making a casserole hope you enjoyed it wish i could get my hubby to make something guess i will have to wait till he retires hehe.
have a nice day all

 

Good morning Rosa,Shiney and everyone.

Rosa, i hope as well that the scaffolding comes down soon,you don't want that hanging around while you are busy with christmas:(

Yes I enjoyed the casserole that Mr K cooked.I think you enjoy it more when someone else cooks it:DThis is the first meal he has cooked for me in over twenty years.He started doing the roast dinners when i used to work Sundays all those years ago because i found it too tiring working all day and then having to come home and cook a full Sunday dinnner that he insisted we had every week.I showed him what to do and he got quiet good at it but then when the Sunday working ended he pcked in the cooking and i have done it ever since:pHis father is just the same.I think that is that generation Rosa:D

Shiney hope you have a good day with your NZ friends.Hope your weather is better than we are having and hope you show them the sites of blighty before they go back although i doubt they are a patch on NZ:p:D

 

Good morning everyone,

Its another cold and rainy day here:flag:, i am so glad that i pretty much finished everything outside yesturday, all i need to do is put away the garden hoses.

I was going to start on my Christmas lights today and my window box, but not now, its cold and pouring here and i really dont want to be sick, so maybe tomorrow :thumb:

 

Since i last posted, the rain switched to hail, and this is what is at my back door

 

Good morning peri and everyone,

Penny lovely bit of snow you have there,hope we get some for Christmas so you could send us some if you have any spare and it is only 54 days until the big day,i can't wait:D

Peri glad you had a good time away at the weekend.:thumb:We had the bad weather more on Saturday whereas you had it bad on the Sunday:( Sorry to hear about your bad hotel experience.:( The one and only time I stayed in a hotel was when i went to Jersey with my ex hubby and his parents before we were married and the room they put me into was miles away from them and was so cold and damp{basement}and it put me off hotels for life:p and what a rip off what they charged for breakfast,no wonder a lot of them are struggling:D

Hope your car gets through it's MOT ok.Mine went in on Monday and passed so I am ok for the next twelve months,although I have only driven 9,000 odd miles in it in three years so i think i am doing well:D

Hope you all have a great day
