Granddaughter

Morning!  Firstly I'd like to say sorry that I've not been around commenting much these past few days but I've been busy getting ready for my holibobs.  We are off to Spain tomorrow so this will be my last 'live' post for 4 weeks.  We are really looking forward to catching up with all our friends there and hopefully getting some sunshine.

I had a day out to Stirling with my Aunt yesterday.  She enjoyed it and managed to get the things she was looking for.  Today I really HAVE to get the case out of the cupboard and get organised as Mr C doesn't finish work until midnight and we are off at 5am tomorrow. I have everything laid out on the spare bed so all I really have to do is pack.  I want to get the bed changed and do last minute dusting etc.  The budgie has to get cleaned out as it's going next door to its Aunty Ruby (our neighbour) and the dog is going to our daughter so that's the animals seen to, phew.

I hope all my blogging friends behave while I'm out of the country.  I'm taking my lappy with me but don't know if  or when I'll be able to connect so take care everyone and I'll be in touch soon.

Apart from all that it's our Granddaughter's birthday today and I'm trying to fathom out where the last 14 years have gone!!
Hugs
Anne

Cold, grey and very damp today but no snow!  Mr C had to go to the doc yesterday as although he was no worse, he was no better.  Guess what ... it's a virus!  If he's no better by Monday he's to go back again.  Daughter is in bed too but she's got a different virus!  I was running about yesterday like a blue a***d fly getting shopping for us (we won't starve now) and shopping for her (they won't starve either!).  I really didn't mind as I wasn't doing anything else.  I bumped into a couple of friends when I was in town and had a cuppa and a scone with them, yum!  I'm really late getting this posted today.  I was out all morning at class and have been trawling the internet this afternoon looking for a birthday pressie for Mr C and my granddaughter.  Needless to say I still don't have a pressie for my friend ... aaah!  Hope you are all fit, well and warm.

Hugs
