Swagger Inn 170. Autumn is here with a vengeance. I think we'll just hide under the duvet --with HBFs-- until Spring.

No the last one wasn’t wrong, the first one with birds was wrong Confused

I’m going to bed now, think I need it Hmm

LetUsPrey · 17/11/2021 22:37

Yes thank you, I’ll have all of those jigsaws. I’ve put myself on a jigsaw buying ban.

LetUsPrey · 18/11/2021 07:50

Morning wenches.

Is dark as per. Doesn’t seem to be cold though.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 18/11/2021 08:31

Morning all
Blue sky and sunny again - hurrah!! BFH is on his third breakfast. Or maybe fourth. I'm not sure if he brought the same mouse in twice. And he's forgotten to put his tongue away. What is it with cats and leaving their tongues sticking out? Don't they notice it's getting dry/cold?

LOL at jigsaw confusions. So many jigsaws, so little time. Sadly not a problem we have with HBFs.

Hope everyone has a good day/

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 18/11/2021 15:45

Afternoon all.

I feel the need for a sticker, like the dentists used to give out. The "I was brave today" sort of thing. Except mine will say "I did my tax return (and scheduled the payments)" Hurrah for getting that out of the way.

Obviously, I'd prefer a 100% accurate sticker that says "I did my HBF", but that is even less achievable than the tax return.

Now I need to get the washing off the line, where it may be slightly drier than when it went out, if I'm lucky.

ApricotCrush · 18/11/2021 17:44

Evening. I put the bedclothes on the line, but they still needed a wizz round the tumbler when I brought them in.

Note to self: Don't arrange two things on the same day. My car was in for service this morning and we got it there for 9 o'clock and it should have been ready for mid-afternoon. DH had a dental appoinment at 5 o'clock, so that should be fine. However, he phoned the garage this afternoon and they said it wouldn't be ready until 5 o'clock. Shock Consequently he had to drop me off and I spent half an hour outside the garage in the dark in a dodgy part of town waiting for it. All very stressful.

Well done on doing the Tax Return Helen.

Lovely jigsaws. I'd love to do one, but never seem to have time.

Hope the wench-dads are alright and they get their scans quickly.

Evening wenches.

I do enjoy it when someone walks past me whilst I’m covering another person’s job before I go back to do my own, leaving work —early— and says that it’s been an okay day hasn’t it, not too busy? That’s because some of the stuff you should have been doing, you told people to send to me/people won’t ask you because it won’t get done for about two weeks if at all. I may have strongly expressed how busy I’d been.

Called to see dad on the way home. He seems a lot better than what he was yesterday so that’s a relief. Still need to find out what went on.

Hope your dad’s recovering Fancy?

That does sound quite stressful Apricot. Wouldn’t have liked that all.

A Big Well Done to you Helen! ⭐️ 🌟 ⭐️ you did your tax return!

How cute Wicked! I’ve been knitting little decorations. Mini jumpers and mini stockings.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 18/11/2021 22:28

Evening. We have been round at a friends having a lovely catch-up. And now I had to go to bed. Love the idea of little tiny knitted jumpers though Grin

LetUsPrey · 19/11/2021 07:47

Morning wenches.

Bizarro dreams and foot cramps do not make for a restful night.

The mini jumpers are the Save the Children pattern they put out for Christmas Jumper Day a few years ago, but there’s loads on YouTube and stuff. That’s where I got the mini stocking pattern.

Friday woohoo. Sky looks quite pretty this morning. Have excellent days wenches.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 19/11/2021 07:50

Morning. Big orange sun on the horizon this morning. Last night's sunset was stunning.

Hurrah for Friday today and Saturday lie-in tomorrow. DH had weird dreams last night - tell me to look behind [somewhere?] No idea what was going on but he woke me twice. And I had an odd one too, though I can't remember it I'm fairly sure there was no FAF anyway.

Hope all's well up with Fancy's Dad and he's been allowed home.

FancyFancy · 19/11/2021 14:34

Still in the land of no internet. Dad has been thoroughly checked out and no major issues, one further test scheduled for this afternoon and then hoping he will be allowed home. Stepmum still in a right state which is why I'm still here. Hoping to go home tomorrow to at least get some 'holiday'!

ApricotCrush · 19/11/2021 17:31

Evening. No sun or pretty skies here.

Cute vases etc. WW.

Nothing to report, hope the Dads continue with their recovery and wenches have a good evening. Wine

Oh, don't know how that happened although MN has been acting strangely this afternoon. Confused

LetUsPrey · 19/11/2021 19:40

Evening wenches.

Work was work.

I remember DH once shouting out in his sleep something about lobsters. That was actually worth being woken up for Grin

Hope your dad’s okay and home soon Fancy, and you actually get some rest on your holiday.

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 19/11/2021 20:02

I had lot of weird dreams lately, last night something about Harry Potter, that’s all I remember really Hmm

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 19/11/2021 20:03

Grin at lobsters.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 19/11/2021 22:11

Evening all. Have been watching TV with DS - or at least, I've been watching TV while DS watches YouTube. Hmm

Also Hmm at MN and its multiple posts, and Grin at Lobsters.

I hope you get home tomorrow Fancy

LetUsPrey · 20/11/2021 08:45

Morning wenches.

Looks quite dreary today.

Not slept well because of DH’s epic snoring nearly all night.

Usual exciting stuff today. I’d better make a start on some Christmas lists too.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 20/11/2021 10:40

Morning all. It's back to being cloudy.

Today I need to pack for RoadTrip and do all the usual domestic stuff. Also, there's a local craft fair so I may go for a nosey if I can get my act together in time.

In other news, I've given up on my coat hunt and ordered one online on the basis that I can always send it back. ermmmm. That's about it.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 20/11/2021 11:16

Oh - also LinkedIn tells me that 24 people found me via a search Shock A quick look at the first few companies that they'll show me for free, gives me the distinct impression that I'm not the person they were actually looking for Grin

FancyFancy · 20/11/2021 11:45

@ LinkedIn. I've had messages from recruiters on there saying I'm just what their client is looking for. I very much doubt that Grin
