Attempting To Be A Domestic Goddess

Welcome to my Sunday 💗

I woke up first, and brought up the brew.

"Wakey,Wakey,"I said to Sleeping Beauty.

Even opened the curtains to let the sun in!

A little bit of cuddle,

Then off downstairs he went to make the breakfast.

I meanwhile, opened all the curtains and windows to let the air in.

Breakfast.

Dressed.

Now to leave the house for a short ride.

Pump up the tyres.

Take away coffee.

Now off to see my parents....

I had a chat with Mrs Messenger while she was tending her brother's grave.

I said goodbyes to my parents.

Dropped Sexy Beast back home and went to look around the garden centre....

I found some nice plants.

"I thought you were only looking,"Said hubby after I sent him to get a trolley

for me to put the plants in.

Loaded them up in his car...

Once we got home.

We had lunch first before I stated to repot the plants.

I got through one bag of compost.

The Monkey Puzzle is sharp!

I have some more plants arriving tomorrow...

Let's hope I have enough pots and compost for them!

Put the Meat in the oven.

I filled out the form needed for permission for the loft to be done.

I will pop that into the Town Hall tomorrow.

Helped hubby sort out the Dining Room.

The people who are doing the loft wanted to do this Friday!

Lol

We have to empty the loft first!

(That's going to be fun!)

Now to get yesterday's blog post wrote.

(If I don't it's going to back up again!)

Hubby dished up the tea.

I published my blog post.

Hubby went to sleep on the sofa.

I looked for a wooden garden arch while he was snoring.

Gave up looking....

Quick look into today's newspaper.
