    What's not true, Trish? That I'm very happily married, that I can't stand the sight of him or that I've been married for 45 years?

    Dunno, Trish.....I think Ruby is 50 years? Not that I'm likely to get any.

    Hi Trish

    Looks like DD has come up trumps again :D I, like you, only remembered, Silver, Ruby and Golden.

    I see you did not sleep too well last night and I am sorry. I hope you can sleep a little in the day.

    Love

    The happiest people don't have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything.

    If you can lay down at night knowing in your heart that you made someone's day just a little bit better, you know you had a good day.

    :D:D:D Up early today for a change, washing hung out at 6.30 am and 11 cartons packed up with homemade butternut squash soup - just got to battle packing them into a full freezer now. Today I shall be making rock cakes, some Gluten Free and some not. Sun is shining and all is tranquil here. :D:D Hopefully another good day is ahead and for you too. :D

    our garden is now weed free :D

    has weed suppressing membrane down :D

    has new plants snuggled into their homes :D:D:D

    and I didn't have to dig a single spade's worth of soil :D:D:D:D:D although I did have to go back and forth to the garden centre to get the bits we forgot/ran out of/ decided we did want after all :lol::lol::lol:

    just got to find enough cash to buy the huge number of bags of slate we need to finish the lot off :wink:

    :D Enjoying a pottering day, cooking, gardening, hoovering our new carpet in the hall, stairs and landing. :D Will be meeting up with my daughter in about three hours which will be great and have some hugs from her, catch up on news, have a meal and a glass of wine or two :D:D

    I wish I had your energy. DD has a touch of the green-face. I am off to do some vacuuming. The reason to be cheerful is that I will feel better about my house when it is done and that will be a good feeling. Left knee currently 20 inches round: I shall measure again when finished! DD

    A little later, about half way through my intended target of work and we're up to 21.5! Where does it come from? It's a mystery! Off to do the stairs now.

    That's it - 23 inches and painful. My lampshades, however, are lovely. That is satisfaction enough - the gloom bulbs will be a tad brighter tonight! DD

    Elna is making a huge batch of Finnish Buns today. :):) 3 lb of flour and yeast and cinnamon is involved. The smell whilst cooking, is divine and the taste is divine too, even though I say it myself. :) Used to watch my mum making them so have been carrying on the tradition for 35 years now.

    Hope you are having a better day today, DD :)
