Busy Busy

It's been a little longer than I hoped it would be since my last post (hoping to post at least once a week!!). Things have been busy here with one thing and another.

Thankfully my Dad is now out of hospital and is managing very well at home, so the need for a six hour round trip between here and Grimsby is no longer necessary. My DIL had very sad news a week or so ago which made it necessary for her to fly to Thailand at very short notice. The upshot of this is that we have oldest (only 7) grandson staying with us until next Friday or Saturday as his Dad has to go back to work. He's a delight to have around and I think today's activities include a visit to Brafield to watch the banger racing (DH is in his element)!!! Also this week a visit to the cinema to see the Smurf movie! I'm sure he will persuade his grandad to go to other places too. He has also intoduced us to Bacugans!!!!

We have been decorating our living room which has taken longer than we thought but I think we are nearly there. Just cushions to either make or buy and a couple of pictures to hang.

Nothing done on the sewing front for quite some time but hopefully this week I can get something done. I have to get something sorted otherwise it will be a another few weeks before we are back to just the two of us. We are due to look after our youngest grandson (9 months old) for a couple of days the week after next.

Who said retirement was relaxing???????????

Good news about you Dad. You are certainly going to be busy looking after grandsons for a while.
