Sorry...

Sorry not been around much these last few weeks, there don't seem to be enough hours in the day or days in the week again, for any 'me' time...

But am going to try and get myself more sorted and starting this week, I'm going to do at least one thing a week for ME, yes something I WANT to do for me and no one else, (yikes, that actually sounds a little selfish, doesn't it, sorry)...

I know how many times have I said about 'me' time and I DO try, honest, but then life gets in the way again... So have decided I'm going to write the 'ME' thing down after I've done them, so I can actually see them in writing and not just thinking about them, hehehe...

So watch this space...

Oh I want to thank Sue, Jean and Val on commenting on my saying of the week, and send hugs and sparkles to those that need them.

Hopefully I'll back on track very soon and you'll have more things to read, other than the 'saying of the week', which is scheduled for the next 6 months, so at least something will be posted every week, lol...

Right off to get the pork in the marinade, as am making sweet and sour pork noodles for tea.... xx

Saying of the week...

Green spiders

Sorry, it's been yet another busy few weeks here. I've been making the most of the weather, staining the front fence and picnic bench... which has resulted in a influx of green spiders down South, as the little blighter's wouldn't get out the way quick enough.

(sorry about the photo, sun just a little too bright)...

But not only were the spiders being a pain, but Smudge one of our tortoises was too. He thought he would put his four pennies worth in, and wouldn't get out the way while I was trying to stain the underside of the bench.

Hubby pointed out to me yesterday that Smudge has a little bit of green stain on his shell and accused me with picking on him. So I did point out, that I had photographic evidence that Smudge was the pain and wouldn't get out of MY way, lol...

But I did eventually get there, and it's already for use...

Also been trimming the bushes, yes the very ones where I cut the top of my finger off a few years back, so they do take me a pick longer to trim as am extra careful, lol. (still no feeling in the finger as lost the nerve endings).

So have trimmed the hedges, mowed the grass, so am all ready for our summer, lol...

Oh, yes, also been shopping in Debenhams sales and have managed to get my shoes, bag and head piece for the wedding, so just the jewellery left to find. Am thinking along the lines of pearls, as think they will match it perfectly...

Oh have also started Sam's 'order of service' and made a few cards, hopefully photos will follow...

Saying of the week...

Don't squander time,

that's stuff, life is made of.
