Well not sure whats happened but its odd if not rare for me to be the first but here goes.
This is the last weekend in January not keen on Jan, but this one seems to have flown by.
Its a nice day if complete with a llittle of the Brrrrr chill factor, but hopefuly warming up as the day moves on.

Hoping to bath the dogs today, Tess rolled in something yesterday and its lingering so a bit, so planning on giving them a quick rinse off.

Taking rubbish round the skip then thats me for the day having chilli chicken nooddles for lunch.

Oh and writing up my info on the RSPB bird watch, have a good day all.

hi Kazz. I think it has been really quiet recently on catsey, with so many new members you'd think it would be busy, but it's very quiet I think!

I'm doing some cookery with the girls today. They are starting to want to help out in the kitchen, so we are cooking some spag bol & then we will cook the lamb roast for teatime.

I also need to get some paperwork filed, we've invested in a filing cabinet & I'm trying to get all my papers sorted, but it seems to be taking forever.

I have a new cat in, only one.. will get a photo of him later & post details about him.

I feel really good at the mo, having so much extra time to spend with the family having cut down on the foster cats. Yesterday we went to the pictures & then did some crafting & today we are doing some cooking.

We have also decided on a plan of action for this year regarding getting the house & garden sorted. We've decided to concentrate on the outside first, thinking this will be time consuming but won't cost too much to do, so we will be getting stuck into that from next weekend.

have a good day everyone.

Sounds like a plan there Smudgley. It has to make a massive difference to your time, glad its working out.

Your day sounds pretty much perfect to me.

I sorted the weekend before last all my paperwork I had only invested in small foldin files though but have to say its come in handy.

[smudgley]

We have got 16 years of paperwork stuck in boxes / folders / drawers but can never quite find what we need. So we bought a filing cabinet & a shredder and it's all coming together nicely. I've even got one of the drawers for my CP paperwork.

Morning Kazz, morning Smudgley ...morning all!

It's a beautiful sunny day here.....almost springlike. There are lots of buds appearing on the bulbs in the garden so I hope the slugs and snail don't have a feast with them.

I received a lovely bouquet of flowers yesterday from OH for our anniversary today.. Nothing else planned for today, just relaxing and pottering!

Kazz - good luck with the bird spotting, I hope it's a nice day in your region..

Have a lovely day everyone!

Well off the bath the dogs now....they are really good I bath them outside just by the drain have a couple of buckets of water handy a little baby shampoo in the one bucket and clean warm water in the other.
Call the dog (one by one, the other left in house) soak them down with clean watercouple of jugs full, then apply the slightly soapy water wash well rinse off and then a brisk rub down with their towel and a run round the garden after a ball to buck up their circulation. That dog goes in the other comes out.

My girls just stand and take it washing wise.

Afternoon all Everyone sounds to be having lovely days today

Happy Anniversary Mags x

Not so much planned for today here, the sun is shining, so that gives a feel good factor. Have had some kitten cuddles and play, have been in the loft hunting all my whelping equipment out. Have to varnish my whelping box, so might think about doing that later. Hubby has gone to take a lot of rubbish etc.. to the tip, he's planning on tidying the garden a little this afternoon.

Hope you all have a lovely, relaxing Sunday

Hi, all! Weather is nicer today, already 2 degrees and sunny. Didn't do any errands today, feeling a bit better but not 100%; nose not as runny and headache and aching muscles better. but still have the cough and feel a bit tired, although I went to bed early and slept in. Leia is such a good girl, she knew mom was sick and stayed with me all night. bless her! So nothing to report. Sounds as if everyone is having a nice day. enjoy!

Happy Annivesary, Mags!!!!!
