I went of to Tesco to do my shopping this morning and enjoyed a quiet shop as it was not at all busy. Spent too long strolling around though and missed my morning coffee.
When I got back and after putting the shopping away I popped over to see Rene and take her a cream cake. I didn't stay long as she was cooking her lunch.
I made some scrambled eggs for Jon and I and then was about to start doing some housework when Jane arrived with Riley which then put paid to me doing anything.
I spent a lovely afternoon with a lovely cuddly smiley baby. He seems to have got over his phase of crying when he can't see his mum which makes life so much easier.
He was due a bottle which I gave him and then he played some more. He does not like to lie on his tummy much and he loves to be standing and looking around but is happy to lie on his mat.
Jane didn't leave till gone five and then I started to do the housework I had planned, better late than never!
Luke came to fit the new light on the patio so now we are all lit up in the garden - another job finished.
Jon had a phone call from Gareth to say he will come next week to finish the bits off in the kitchen. Fingers crossed nothing happens to stop him.
Heather came home and I made dinner, swordfish tonight which was very yummy with garlic butter.
We watched some TV before going to bed.
Saturday.
Not a bad morning and really quite mild though I think the forecast is for colder weather next week.
Jon had already had breakfast when I got down but Heather wanted something hot so I cooked some bacon and we had bacon sandwiches.
Jane arrived with Riley who had a lovely little bear suit on, this one has a little tail on it. He looks so sweet and cuddly in these suits.
Jane and Heather went into Bury St Edmunds to the Christmas Market.
Jon and I went along to Tesco for a coffee and I had to take a little wooden advent house back that I had bought for Heather as it was broken. Well, I say advent but it is actually 12 days of Christmas so I will have to refill it but it is very cute.
I went to find another but they had all been sold. The lady checked in the stock room but there were no more and none expected in so I said I would keep the broken on but she didn't give me anything off it even after my friend's husband, who was in the queue, suggested I got 50% off!
By the time I got into Costa Jon had drunk half his coffee and mine was nearly cold.
We then bought a few bits before going home.
I got changed and went up to finish off the painting in the bathroom. I had to rub all the gloss down first so it took longer than I thought it would. Still it is finished now.
I then started rubbing down the woodwork in the downstairs loo where the decorators had made such a mess. I managed to get all of that done and painted but it was nearly dinner time when I had finished. Only the en suite to do now. We had run out of white spirit so I needed to use nail varnish remover to get the pain off my hands!
Fortunately, we had a Tesco fish pie which only needed to go into the oven so Jon sorted it.
We had dinner and then watched TV. My goodness Barry Manilow! How can he deny he has had surgery? As much as I like his sound he does look very weird.
Off to see Dawn French tomorrow!
