Good Morning All,
I'm up at 4am again. 
Today I'm carrying on much the same as yesterday, mostly decluttering & organising & keeping up routines.
Wishing you all a happy day  |

Good Morning Elasti and all the Lovely Ladies to come
4am Elasti, Oh Dear, all work and no sleep does not make for a happy Mummy. I hope you get a chance to have a 'cat nap' during the day to recharge. Sounds like you are in the swing of things there decluttering and organizing. Good for you.
Judy, sorry I missed saying something yesterday "Happy Anniversary". Congratulations to you both, well done.
Yesterday I achieved. Perhaps not everything I should have, but I've made some progress on Christmas so that makes me really happy. House is pretty ship shape and my sink was shiny by bedtime (all be it 11pm). I need to work on BBR and sleeping more.
Today is DMum's 85th Birthday. She is going out this morning with my Brother and his wife (I hope their kids make an effort to go) and I think (communications is sketchy to say the least) they are taking Mum for Morning Tea/Brunch. Which will leave her free for us this arvo. Hoping she feels up to coming here for dinner. Rest of today will be washing, a little pottering in the garden. I have it mostly weeded, just want to catch the few little newbies popping their heads out this week, then I have compost, fertilizer and mulch to lay on it and it will be ready for the heat of summer. I have already put some liquid fertilizer and wetting agent on earlier in the week and things look a little healthier already.
Well, almost 6.30am here. Time to start crossing things off my Daily List. Wishing you all a Super Saturday and a Wonderul Weekend. xoxo
Message from SYS, Yes, Yes indeed. DS did bring a POOL home from Uni. It was an inflatable one. (Too funny)

 Hi Everyone
Oh Elasti- that is too early. Will a nap mean you are awake early again tomorrow? Maybe go to chemist for a ‘relaxing’ pill- not something you’d get addicted to but maybe to help get into a better sleeping pattern?? Medusa- i love those pottering saturdays around the house. Thats great that you made progress on Christmas Shellie and Happy Birthday to DM. Enjoy your time with her today. Thats nice that you keep in touch with SYS too.
Yesterday I wrote all the “easy” Christmas cards. I’d already addressed them earlier in the month. Now i have to do the overseas ones and a new friend or 2. Ive got some extra in case I receive a card from someone I didn’t send one to. We also do a Christmas newsy letter with a photo or 2 to put in as well.
Today we have to vote. No one else has mentioned that in here so it must be just our state elections. DH is in charge of a polling booth and had to be there at 7am til possibly 10PM 
Ive got a DF coming over who I went to school with. I dont know what time she is coming but we usually go out for lunch. She will probably spend some time in the afternoon here and maybe dinner if she has no other plans.I will go with the flow
My DBP are cleaning out my kitchen cupboards today- dont think Im game enough to have them do the pantry - it hasn’t been done for years and as my DH cooks we have EVERYTHING that a supermarket has. (annoys the c%@p outta me!!) They are also (eagerly) going to wrap the Christmas presents Ive already bought  (my bad??)

3 hours in the garden this morning. EXERCISE DONE. I have weeded, pruned, divided and replanted the Lyriop (ornamental grass), spread the mulch and watered. Doesn't sound like 3hrs work, but it was.
Going to be a hot day today. I have Load 1 finished, Load's 2 & 3 lined up ready. Need to have a shower and freshen up 1st.
Have a great day everyone.
Judy, I want DBP's, lol. I mostly keep in touch with SYS here, but I do catch her occasionally on facebook and even more occasionally we will text or chat on the phone. She is as always busy, busy, busy.

Oh Shellie- good work in the garden! Can you come here?! I still need to do the fertilizer thing- no excuse really as there are horses in paddocks all around us!!
DBP can sometimes be brilliant -like today-wrapping 18 christmas gifts for me (sounds a lot but 4 DFs from school and Home Group 2 for KK etc) and 4 birthday presents- ok well 3 are for DGD lol They are cleaning out my kitchen cupboards and saucepan drawers. Vacuuming them them as well. Other times I find it hard to find them enough to do and sometimes i crave some personal space in the evenings.

Shellie Happy Birthday to Dmum We just had an impromptu couple of hours traipsing the local shopping centre up & back the length of it at DH's fast pace.  And DH & I have decided to buy a treadmill as a joint Christmas present to each other.  woo! I was planning a nana nap this afternoon but I think I'll be ok to skip it & just go to bed around 9pm. |
