Next stage

Tomorrow I ring the glazers, exciting? Having ploughed through the second stage of fra.ing the windows since Thursday I am now at the point of needing to order glass because it will hold me up in a week or twos time if it takes ages to make?

Happy 12th Birthday Linco

I think I could not have picked two better children both make me proud but today was Lincoln’s 12th birthday and like a teenager in training he was still asleep at 9am showing no signs of waking up, with everyone downstairs waiting for him. While Reagan cooked some pancakes and Mommy cooked the bacon I […]

Being me!

I like being me and it makes life so much easier because Jamie loves me as I am she loves who I am so I just have to live, I never have to try, I just am! Today we went to Chester for Lincoln’s birthday an Alcatraz escape room first up which we did not […]

Shed windows

It’s taken a while to get to the point where I am able to crack on and get a window made but the last couple of days I really got my head around what I need to do. Glue ups of the opening frames secured with pocket hole screws are going well, and it feels […]

911

Grandad turned 80 today, after celebrating with a party yesterday, now synonymous with terror and the twin towers 911 has always been my dad’s birthday and I am so grateful to have him to celebrate with after believing we’d lost him in 2018.

Football is back

With one eye on the game later our whole day was about going to celebrate Grandads 80th birthday at the Bulls Head at Smallwood. We told everyone that we had Covid but were now testing negative and that made us feel better. It was a lovely day with Nannie Liz’s family aswell as Uncle Karl […]

Hot day

The Indian summer continued today and so did my fatigue although I felt a little better than I had for a while I was desperate to get in to my shed and use the pocket hole jig that finally arrived from Amazon. Unfortunately by 2:30 in the afternoon all I wanted to do was sleep […]
