Halfway ….


   Well, that’s Saturday over, and it’s not been a bad day. Youngest has been fine, if a little loud, for most of the day, with no real problems at all. Mrs H dropped a bombshell this morning, when she asked me to take him for his hair cutting !! This would not normally be a problem, but the way he has been for the past few weeks, meant that I was dreading it. However, he surprised me, and trip went very well.

   Managed to get to mow the lawn today. Now that usually is a chore. What normally happens is, that the weekend weather usually prevents me from cutting the grass, until it has got too long. Then, with copious amounts of bad language, I spend a good one and a half hours, trying to cut the damn stuff. I also sorted out my little ‘greenhouse’ and planted some Dahlia seeds. May plant some salad leaves tomorrow, if the weather holds.

   I now have a new page on here, that has a few photos from our last holiday. They are not the best pictures, but for a first attempt, I don’t think I did too bad.

   I posted a status comment on facebook today, whilst I was in the garden. It basically said “……has cut the grass, and is now chopping out some dead wood (why does work spring to mind ??)……”. This seems to have caused a little upset, with some of my colleagues  …… ha ha ha. Just need Doris Day singing “The Deadwood Stage” as my ringtone to finish them off, and I will have lost all my work friends … ha ha ha.

TGIF ……


   Well the week at work, went as well as can be expected. Friends remain friends, and colleagues are just people you work with (or try to). I must re-evaluate the people I call friends !! Some of the ones I used to think of friends are… shall we say colleagues, and some of what were colleagues, I would like to have a s friends. I am beginning to get confused now !!!!

   Home !! Well R*** continues to be very challenging at the moment. I/we don’t know what it is, but he can switch from being happy and loving to being angry and violent in a split second !!! There does not seem to be a trigger at all. Unless we are the trigger !!! If that is the case, then we are completely sunk.


   Just looking at the contents of this post, and I have to say, what a miserable sod I must appear to be !!! It is not the case.

  I now have the instructions on how to post a picture slide show. That is the weekend task. Wish me luck !!
