Monday

 Good morning, everyone.  It's a bit too early to tell what the weather is like, just that it seems dry, but the forecast is for a mostly dry but cloudy day.  I can go with that as I have plenty to do inside right now.

When Beth came round yesterday, we had lunch and then got going with the last of the shelving.  A couple of hours and a few breaks later it was all done and dusted apart from just one thing.  The very last unit had two damaged shelves.  I think the corner of the box got bashed at some point.  I fired off a message to the company via Amazon so I hope to hear from them today or tomorrow.  

I'd found an old DVD of Alex in his first Christmas show at the special school he attended when he was narrator in a nativity.  How he enjoyed having control of the mike, especially during the two carols!  There was quite a scuffle when they needed the mike back again and Beth and I were in hysterics!  He was a very cute little boy dressed up in a choirboy's costume!

Today I have a scheduled chat with Dad in the afternoon and the remainder of the time is going to be sorting out cupboards and moving stuff around.  This house is surprisingly well endowed with storage, the flip side being that there's a lot of turning out to do.  
I'll get there.

It should be a very positive day and I hope yours is too.  Be happy and stay safe.  xx

  3. I hope you can get the damaged shelves replaced without too much hassle.

    Old recordings of school events are things to treasure, and it's a shame that most schools ban recording now.

    Enjoy the chat with your Dad.
