I was up early this morning, 7.30, but I really don't know where the day went!
The men arrived just after eight to fit the new garage door and after making them a coffee I left them to it but they finished in just under an hour. The new door looks very nice. I think I might put all our magnets on the inside as I have nowhere else to put them.
Jon and I went out for a coffee and then did some shopping in Tesco and then onto Homebase and then the pet shop to buy a new bed for Totty. By the time we got back the morning had gone.
I made a chocolate cake that I had been promising to do for a few weeks and I also made a crem brulee for after dinner tonight.
I then spent the rest of the day doing odd jobs, washing and cleaning the bathrooms. It took ages to scrape off the bits of carpet left on the skirting boards by the decorators and then I had to vacuum it all up.
Jane arrived with Riley just as I was rushing off for my contact lens appointment. I got to Specsavers and they told me I was half an hour late! I had put it down for 16.55 and it was actually 16.15! They made me another appointment for next week!
I got back home and Jane was feeding Riley so I got on with preparing dinner as Jason was coming after he finished work. Jane went in to see Sharon nextdoor who had kindly offered to shorten two skirts for Jane. While she was away I changed my first boy nappy for Riley!!
I had noticed that the drain from the kitchen had been overflowing and so Jon had a look at it and it was totally blocked with grease, solid. He went to buy some heavy duty cleaner and put that down which didn't help and then he went to buy some rods and they didn't work either.
By now Jason had arrived and helped Jon dig up the patio where the manhole is, so glad the builders haven't already put the new patio down as it would have had to be dug up! They still couldn't unblock the drain. Jason is going to borrow some brushes from a friend and come over after work tomorrow and see if they can unblock it if not it is a job for Dynorod!
We had a nice dinner and Riley slept till we had finished and then when he woke I cuddled him while Jane and Jason finished their dinner. Jane said he hasn't slept much today but by the time they were going home he was fast asleep!!
I need to crack on with the painting tomorrow not long to go now before the wedding and then our holiday!!!!!
WEATHER
Cloudy with sunny spells and the odd spot of rain 22 degrees
