Fed up..you bet!

We had a major leak in the bathroom last week and had to spend out loadsa money to get it all sorted..i still have a hole in the ceiling and one in the bathroom floor but hey ho it will get fixed as Ohs having a few days off next week.
We replaced the back fence and gate this weekend to stop Belle getting out..it was half price so not too expensive.Just meant i had to do two dump runs and still have more to take but ohs getting us a skip and we are going to have another major clear out while hes home.I have wardrobes in boxes waiting to go up in the bedroom..had them a year now and still havent decorated our room.
We are using the old ones that were left in the house..theyre usable but not what i wanted for our room..way too small in my opinion even though i havent that many dressy clothes oh has a lot of shirts..lol..i already binned half of them but he must have at least a hundred or more.
Today Boo is at nursery again and im just doing a bit of hw..going to get my hair cut later with a bit of luck and probably sort out some scrapping to do.Ive had no inspiration lately..been too tired and stressed.

Belle gets her second set of jabs on friday then we can take her out for walks.Shes going potty being cooped up in the yard she needs to be exercised..will get the Boo to do something as well as shes a misery at the moment..cant be helped though she gets wicked heat rash in summer and it really itches no matter what i put on it..going to get her some piriton today and see if that helps.

Mum at Chelsea Flower show

Well this year mum didnt get anywhere with her arrangement..But she will be invited again next year you can bet your shirt on it.

This is my latest lo of Andys Granny meeting Boo for the first time.
Shes a remarkable woman and is still going strong at 90.

















Well tomorrow its the vets for our Belle..shes having a check up and hopefully if she gets the all clear her first jabs. We need to pick up a travel cage for her so she can go everywhere with us..not that i will be driving much with the diesel prices going up like they have..my Billie takes £60 to fill up now and i cant justify driving aimlessly about anymore so it looks like im using shanks pony for a while.
I walked into town yesterday and it nearly killed me thats how unfit i am..im hoping that having Belle will get me out a bit more on my own and exercise more as a family..There are quite a few dog friendly places to go round here.

Our bin is overflowing with Maggots yet again..every summer its the same and i use a bottle of bleach a week in it to try and eradicate them..trouble is we only have fortnightly collections and we are supposed to recycle food waste so i guess we will have to put up and shut up..

The garden is looking nice now weve had some rain ..ok so we have planted broccoli here and there but then why not it looks nice and green..we planted green beans last year but they didnt come to much..

Boos bedroom is nearly finished...it just needs more disney characters on the walls ..i did cinderella yesterday and her coach and the fairy godmother..im working on Belle and the Beast next but i keep running out of black cardstock..well its a good excuse to go to Capture the magic...lol

Today i took the kids to skylarks to get them out the house..we have been in looking after Belle and catching up with hw while the weathers been crap..kids played for an hour before the rain started coming down..and by the looks of it its in for the night.

I hate the rain...its bad for witches you know..

I have sharp teeth you know..lol

Poorly puppy

Well the trip to the vets was a nightmare..The vet thought Belle had Parvo which is a killer if left untreated..we were told to take her to the main practice in March and when we got there we werent allowed in..they did all the tests in the car park..I really wanted to cry as the poor little girl was so poorly and lethargic..anyway the vet came out and said it wasnt parvo but it was serious and so we were allowed into the examination room where he gave her a jab of anti biotics and then loads of other meds to administer at home.
Anyways nearly a week later and shes a normal little puppy now...

Changes..........

I hate the change on UKS.The team chat is from latest post down instead of the other way around..all bloody confusing..and as team leader i now have to go into the profiles of my team to collect points..i have voiced my dis approval on the smack blog...
Now the smack blog i go to daily and read comments at the moment theyre bitching about some woman..havent got a clue who she is but then i havent got a clue who most of the names are..so i dont comment..im not one for pulling people i dont know to pieces.
Yesterday i did hw all day got most of the downstairs done and broke the hoover so i need to get a new part for that..i can still hoover up though using one of the attachments but it takes forever as its only four inches wide..
The kids have been all over Belle and she loves the attention but i do wish they would leave her alone when shes in her bed..i can see tighter rules are needed there so will discuss it tonight at dinner.
We are one of those rare familys that sit down at the table and talk about our day taking it in turns to tell everyone else.Sometimes theres not a lot to say and others theres loads..

Today Boo goes to nursery so i have a couple of hours to myself..i look forward to this as i get to play with my cricut.I got a new cart the other day and need to start making Belle and the beast and all the characters and The little Mermaid for Boos room..once its done i can sit down and laminate them all and put them on her walls..

Belle

This is the latest addition to our family..
Her name is Belle and she was born on the 25th of Feb 2008...Isnt she the sweetest little ball of fluff you ever saw?
She is a spaniel cross border collie and i fell in love the minute i saw her..

Today she went to the vets to be given an mot..she needed worming obviously and shes having her first jabs on thursday..

I must admit getting up to a pile of doggie poop was horrid this morning as i dont do mornings as a rule..i need half a dozen cups of coffee and at least ten fags to get me moving so having to deal with that was a shock...she will get the hang of going outside eventually...its all a bit hit and miss as this is her first official day in her new home.
Oh spent a small fortune kitting Belle out this weekend from dog cages ( she needs somewhere to escape the kids) bedding, toilet trainer pads, food bowls and food not to mention actually buying her..it looks like we will be on beans and toast all week..lol..
The kids adore her though and so far so good they havent tormented her as much as i thought although she loves chasing Boo and nipping her legs..something i hope she gets bored with soon.
