I feel good for getting out there and clearing 3 massive bags! it was a rare 48hr break in rain so took advantage of semi dry ground 😁 (and it's now raining again!)

Awww I’m so pleased you had a good workout , bet you feel great now. It’s not been raining here been quite mild today xx

Can’t wait for the update Laura, and to find out about your afternoon.
After 32 years, I am finally getting my bedroom decorated, just for me. I brought 5 children up as a lone parent and decorated their bedrooms but never got around to doing mine as there was always something more important to spend the money on, and with studying or working, never had the time. Now all my children have left home and got married and I have retired, it’s time to spoil myself and have it just how I want it. Quite exciting really 😆

Wow, you so deserve that 🤩! The colours sound really lovely, I love dusky pink for paint colour. I’m on a farrow and ball fb group just to live vicariously through others beautiful decorating 🤪😁.

AdmittowearingCrocs · 10/11/2024 16:25

Thanks @Munchyseeds2 and @Apolloneuro , doing it dusky pink with a feature wall, new carpet, bed, curtains and bedding. Should be lovely once done 🌸 Just a shame it’s taken so long.

Munchyseeds2 · 10/11/2024 15:57

That's nice @AdmittowearingCrocs after bringing up 5 kids I think you deserve it!
Yes what colours are you going for?
Treat yourself to some nice new bedding as well 😊

Apolloneuro · 10/11/2024 15:40

That’s nice, crocs. What’s your colour theme going to be?

Afternoon @RaspberryBeretxx , how’s your day going? Thank you so much that’s so lovely that your all excited for me, warms my heart ❤️
Yes it’s 8 days , a week tomorrow 😂Not long now
I’m abit disappointed the stag do have gone home now, they didn’t sound very enthusiastic this morning I was hoping for more singing but they was very quiet for some reason 🤣xx

So excited that you’re on your way ❤️.

poor stags, bet they felt rough this morning. It gets harder as you get older 😆.

I’m just off for another long walk with the little one, at least I’ll be keeping fit 🤣. This morning we went to the remembrance service as ds was there with scouts.

I am so excited you are seeing your house today, so you must be even more excited than me. Cannot wait to hear all about it.
@Apolloneuro sorry you are feeling low today, bloody men, why can the mot just behave like good human beings?
Just relaxing with a coffee before I get busy, getting things ready for a decorator to come next week. I normally do it myself but thought I would treat myself this time.
Have a lovely day all 😀🫕
