Weekender

Been busy, as always.
Had a good long weekend though. Managed to nip off for a while to the seaside and some sandy beaches, not that I managed to actually stand on the sand as those I was with only wanted to walk along the pathway. I should've been rude and whipped off my shoes and run screaming WHOOPEE! 
It was fun anyway, too much food, lots of sun and nothing to do. A recipe for sleep.... it was only the "interactive" entertainment that kept me awake sometimes. I now know that some bloke invented bubble gum in 1928, or was it 1929..., and that I can't hum a tune anyone would recognise, I also need to check my spelling particularly when spelling backwards, oh and there's all those card games I played as a kid that I can't remember now, at least my poker's improving.
The fun stuff was accompanied by a stay in a b&b which had a 4-poster bed (I'll work out how to load the picture sometime soon), but it had no towels at least for the first 30 hours.... they did appear very late Sunday night. We left Monday morning. Went for a shopping trip where i got some bargains and some not so bargainee-but-still-cheap clothes. 3 for the price of 1 was the best at H&M.
And it was sooo nice to come home to a clean kitchen and relatively tidy house - see was worth all the shouting, screaming, yelling and tears on Saturday. God it's murder to get some help with the small simple things sometimes. But I've promised myself not to dwell and that I will pointed point out that no the empty crisp packet does not live on the table nor the floor and socks do not belong in the kitchen.
I know I'll probably still get wound up about it all, again, and I hope that it'll all get better once the whole decorating and buildings been done. Can't wait to spend more time in the garden..... my mum would laugh at that, me the one who can kill a cactus from dehydration even though I end up watering it every day.
