    Good day
    And it is a good day :) I think I made about 40 or so trips to the cellar with bags of my son's belongings. Everyone of them felt like I was lifting a bag of hammers but I got through the lot and now there are just the large saws to put back together and on their machine dollies. And I won't be doing that. Number 2 son will come by later and the boys can finish the work.

    This morning is going to be spent doing more laundry and puttering before and after my show and the same during commercial breaks after my show starts. I'll putter within ear shot of the television during the soap. Jeff's character didn't get his last week so I hope he gets it this week. Nasty toe rag!

    I hope everyone has a lovely day and keeps safe and well :)

      Lori you sounds like you’ve been very busy, sorry to hear about your son but sound like he’s happy to be home :dbgrtmb:, sounds like your granddaughter is slowing the mend, it may take a while but she will get there.

            Aloha everyone,

            Ben is coming to start work on our patio. He's a month early as the people he was supposed to be doing a building project for have just returned from France and have to isolate. :rolleyespink: Don't know how long it will take but it's likely to be a couple of weeks or more. :phew:

            Keep well :biggrin:

            Aloha!

              Good day
              It is a little cloudy and cool this morning. The sun looks like it will make short work of the clouds and the temperature will rise to a comfy level.

              I've got a day of just puttering and tidying and cleaning. Nothing heavy just ordinary house keeping so should be very relaxing.

              It's also nice to know that I'll have time to get some weeding done. Since the sprinkler system has been running it's not just the good guys who are flourishing!

              @shiney it's a lucky break for you to get the patio done before the fall. It is an awesome time for sitting out with a morning cuppa.

              Cheers all and please play safe :)

                At the moment he's lifting the loose ones, cleaning out underneath and resetting them. Then they (he's going to need help) shall cut out all the pointing and put new in, totally lift a section 25ft x 3ft that has subsided about 4" and dig it out, fill with hardcore and sand and a sub-base and then reset them. After that he's extending the patio for a section about 20ft x 3ft. The patio he is redoing is about 2,000 sq ft :rolleyespink:. Sarafi has been supervising. :blue thumb:

                      So sorry to read of your loss @Flumpy , my thoughts are with you and your family.:grphg:

                      We had a small get together yesterday after finally laying my Dad to rest after a 14 week wait. They did an excellent with the headstone as they revamped it entirely after adding Dad's details. It's quite exposed to the sun, and it was surprising how the original lettering had began to deteriorate.
                      It looks like new now.:dbgrtmb:

                      Not sure what the plans are for today, I do need to go into town at some point.

                      Enjoy your day everyone.:spinning:

                          @Flumpy I am sorry to hear of our loss.:sad: Hugs from me.

                          Today I only need to take to Samantha to the hospital for another follow up with the surgeon she will probably assess how things are inside from the CT scan and tell us if the wounds where the tubes were, are healing properly.

                          I've got housework to do but I need the ambition to go along with the need so it probably won't get done today!

                          Guess I'll just putter and enjoy the cooler (70'sF) weather :)

                          Cheers all and please play safe!

                            Aloha everyone,

                            @Flumpy our thoughts are with you :grphg:

                            The man doing our patio has agreed to fix our deer fence that the poplar tree took down earlier in the year. He hasn't quoted a price as he doesn't know how long it will take. His prices are reasonable (already done some odd jobs for us) and works fairly fast. He's been using an air pressure gun to blast out the pointing and the birds don't like it. They're beginning to get used to it and are starting to return to the feeders. Mainly blackbirds and robins backat the moment but some tits and finches.

                            Chiropodist appointment today and they now phone to remind everyone to wear a mask on arrival.

                            Keep well :biggrin:

                            Aloha!

                              hope then weather stays fine for you all, I finish at 2pm so I’m popping to my parents to drop some things off the home and chill whilst the washing is on. The couple who are buying our house did a second viewing with parents and they loved it :)

                                Hope everyone is well this morning. A bit of a damp squid of a day here today . Thankfully I still have lots of seedlings that need pricking out and potting on in the greenhouse. Also just downloaded a nice gardening library book to browse through today....so all is good.:)

                                Enjoy you day! :spinning:
