BREW AND THOUGHTS (UPDATE)

Welcome and good morning to anyone who stumbles upon my thoughts.
Well, I am sat here on my own, the hubby's gone to work, kids asleep and all is quiet.While typing this I'm also watching a garden program and its making me think of summer. Oh I wish for the sun just to appear and make me smile and to feel it on my face. It would make me so happy. If it did, I could make a start on my gardens, front and back. I'll be able to have the windows and doors open. The air would flow through the home, and I could start decorating. It would make it feel more like our home.

We have a nice landlord who's said we can decorate how we want. Which is so nice, since some landlords don't like you to change the decor. We all would love to go for nice walks and picnics and go to the beach. It's hard in the cold weather as my oldest gets cold so quick and ends up in pain for days after.

As I look out of the window, more snow is falling. It would be so nice just by the click of my fingers I could make it disappear. The other day I went out and cleaned the animals out and thought 'Hm, lets get sweeping'. So I did. All around the bungalow then the front. It looked so much better, and I felt so much better.
Then it got too cold and I retreated inside. But, just that little bit time outside made me feel great.
Do you ever feel like you have to be super woman and just do everything in one day? That if somethings out of place that it really annoy's you? That you look at other blogs and think 'How the hell does there home look perfect and mine looks so crap!' ? Then I sit down and think 'What the hell, and I give up!'

Since writing this I had a lazy morning, kids got up about half 12. Then after my shower my son said,"Right, what do you need doing?" With that said, we sorted the porch out and now filled with loads for the charity shop : ). Conservatory is cleaned stuff gone in porch for charity shop. Still more to do but feel better.

THE BUNGALOW IS A MESS!

As title says it is a mess! Yesterday, I started to clear some more things for the charity shop and I moved furniture. Now I've had enough and haven't done anything today apart from a load of washing, made some bread and drink brews.Oh, and watch TV. Why do I start these things? Because I know after a few hours I'll think, "Why? Oh why did i start?" Then, I'll shut the door and walk away.
I've got 3 piles of washing to iron and I keep moving it, and I keep thinking it might just go away. Its still there.
Now I'm sat here thinking what else to say. There's nothing else to say except I'm tired and fed up. Hopefully, tomorrow I'll feel better and be able to get in to gear and do something about it.

16 YEARS AGO TODAY.

Well here's the BIRTHDAY GIRL 16 TODAY! Now she wanted it to snow for her birthday and it did! She wanted a Dr. Seuss birthday cake, and that's what she got. She loves it, and I don't think it turned out that bad.


Thanks for looking.

WHAT HAVE I BEEN DOING



Well I'll tell you what I've been doing. I've been pulling my hair out trying to sort this home!!! We moved from a 3 bed house to a 3 bed bungalow. Now me been me thought it be fine I'll get everything in and it will look fine. Well no it did not! Then I started looking at things we have around here and thinking do I really need this and do I need that. So things have gone to the tip, free cycle or the charity shop. I do feel better now that things are looking clearer here, I suffer from depression have done for a number of years and it was really getting me down. Now I can see the light at the end of the tunnel .
