I'm not inclined to do any cleaning...

The only thing I'm cleaning these days is puppy poop. Lots and lots of puppy poop!

My tidying up has yielded great benefits. I found a pair of leggings, and an indespensible black tank that went missing around Christmas. During all the holiday upheaval, they got put away in the wrong closet. I've sort of looked around for them, but today, truly, is the first time searching for them in earnest. Oh my precious!

Good Morning All from our Happy Place x

We drove up to the farm yesterday so we could get a few things done up here. Driveway trees re tied and trimmed, thistles all removed from back paddocks- filled an entire bin! We will head home around lunchtime as its a public holiday here today.

Saturday we had my youngest sons 21st birthday with family. It was a great night. Hes allergic to egg so I had an icecream cake made at Cold Rock. Expensive but delicious. Here are some pictures

DH is healing well. He has an echo n ecg next week then we wait... He sees the assoc prof in April again. Working on the assumption that they will call if anything is amiss prior to then but the waiting is sure hard. Im driving not to think about it too much and have booked him in for a massage Wed night. Hoping that helps him feel a little better.

Thank you all for your support. Its hard not being able to say anything to the kids. It helps to be able to here

Love to you all x

So glad to hear from you, Shirl. I'm with you ... no news is good news. :)

Those are lovely photos of everyone. What a lovely evening! Ice cream cake ... sounds like what they eat in heaven and wherever else calories, carbs, fats and sugar don't count!

Have a good week, y'all. We're here all night long. :)

Greetings All

Just got back from the pool. Too many little kids to do much but its nice to soak in jacuzzi and get hair washed. Must adjust hours.

I made a good dinner last night. I was looking for something to bake with eggs and shrimp. I found a breakfast recipe which I adjusted. It was something like 4 eggs, 1/4 c milk, some chopped onion, a squirt of garlic from a tube, 15 cooked shrimp sans shells, i/4 cup panko, 2/3 cup shredded cheese. Beat everything together - I used cuisinart. dump into baking dish and top with a bit more panko. Bake at 350 for 30 min or so. High protein, calories not too bad and tastes like a fancy ladies lunch dish. More tonight.

Shirly thanks for the pictures. You are so cute! Ditto family. Hope the medical stuff goes well.

Ann you cleaning beast. So far I do not have that affliction.

Spent the day wrestling with CA tax web site to pay for our galleries. All done. Now on to my own taxes. LOL I hardly have any of the stuff yet.

DH took dogs for long walks today. He declined the pool. I am not going to keep paying for it if its $39 per visit.

Bids on a new roof next week or two. We want solar but our roof is old and needs replacing first which I suspected. Not sure what to do. Its a lot of bucks for the whole project.

Not much else going on. So I will endeavor to enjoy the peace before the next **** storm comes, whatever it might be. Diane S
