 Welcome to my Monday 👺

Brew with hug.

Breakfast.

Dressed.

Gives hubby a wet sloppy 💋 before he goes to work.

I gets the kids up ready for their on-line school learning.

Hubby is getting the newspaper before he goes to work.

I enjoy a coffee before I start on the housework.

Dishwasher gets loaded up.

Tumble drier goes on.

Put recycling in the bin.

Even Henry comes out for little play.

Now to try and paint the skirting going up the stairs.

The yellow paint let off some strong fumes.

I opened the window on the stairs to let out the smell.

I let what I painted to dry.

I settled down to write 3 blog posts!

Oh dear.

The computer wasn't playing today.

It took the rest of the day to write them.

Computer kept crashing....

I hear the kitchen bin lid suddenly come off.

No one was in the kitchen at the time!👻

I had to have some light lunch before I even finished Friday's blog post!

I got my portable hard drive and started to take my stuff off the computer, when it would let me before crashing!

Well earned Tea at 3!

Back to saving my stuff and trying to write 3 blog entries.

Just before hubby came home,

I had finally finished!!!!

Who would though blogging could be so stressful!

While cooking the stir fry,

The front door handle was being lifted up and down, from the inside, again no one was there! 👻

Much needed hug and sloppy wet 💋 time with hubby!

Chicken Stir Fry time!

We watched today's episode of Judge Rinder.
