My hubby dropped in my resignation letter to work.

I had a dedication for me read out on the radio for Mother's Day from my hubby and kids.

Now for a Mother's Day treat.

This makes up for no Birthday cake on my Birthday.

Gets back home.

Off for a walk around the block.

Felt better for that :)

I had left 3 messages for younger brother to come and collect the paperwork I signed for the Solicitors.

I left it out on the front door step for him to collect.He must have got at least one, and it came and collected it!

All I have to wait now for is the Prodical brother to sign it, and the house can be finally be sold \o/ 

Light lunch time.

Even had time to put some tunes on the Jukebox.

The smell of white spirit has now disappeared from the washing machine \o/
