Week 19 and 20 Two week catch up again

Ok, so here I am catching up again for Week 19 and 20. Not much has gone on and hardly any photos taken. Usual cinema trips and a birthday day out.

Highlights of Week 19

Sunday 7th – We went to Caldicot Castle for the Military Display day. I included some photos of the day on the last update. Besides doing the homework of 1 photo every 5 minutes for an hour,…

Week 17 and 18 Two week catch up

This is my catch up for Week 17 and 18. The past 2 weeks have seen a few days out, house painting and lots of AYWMC homework.

Sunday – Day off – didn’t do much today

Monday/Tuesday – Hubby has been painting the outside of the house so I was on ladder duty. I’m not keen on him climbing up to the apex of the gable ends – it’s about 20+ feet up!

Wednesday cinema –…

Week 16 – 2017 The results are in!

Week 16 bought the results of my CT scan, a dull Easter and an even duller week of work. Oh – and a camera crisis!

Sunday

Plans for today were to go out on my ‘shadow safari’ for AYWMC but it was pretty dull so we stayed in and had a lazy day.

Monday

We popped to the sons house to drop Easter Eggs for the boys. They have a trampoline set up in the garden and it…

Week 15 saw extra day working, silly grandson and chasing clouds.

Sunday / Monday days off. Pottering about not doing anything in particular.

Tuesday – Son popped in with Ashley. Theo was asleep so he stayed with Mummy. We had a silly playtime. In the afternoon the usual Cinema visit to see Going in Style. Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman and Alan Arkin play 3 old…

Week 14 - 2017 Tough start and good end

Week 14 – 2017 Tough start and good end

Week 14 – hospital, cinema, work, sunshine, a lunch date and a telling off for hubby!

Monday – Hospital appointment for my CT Scan. It’ll be good (or bad depending on what’s wrong!) to know what’s causing the episodes of upset stomach. I wasn’t kept waiting and was seen within minutes of arrival. The radiologist explained each stage of the procedure and it…

Week 13 – 2017 Almost back to normal

Here we are at Week 13, a quarter of the year done! Back to normal more or less this week. Although there was no cinema trip. It ended with an odd weekend.

Monday / Tuesday days off and did nothing much other than potter about the house. Hubby not feeling very well, just a bit meh…

Wednesday – Working today. I managed to finish a little early so we could go to…

Week 12 – 2017 More Work Work Work

Week 12 meant even more hours in work. So there was little else other than the usual cinema trip and a couple of walks.

Sunday – Working – busier than usual running updates and getting processes in place for the new £1 coin.

Monday – Day off! Didn’t do much. Catching up with emails, AYWMC etc.

Tuesday – Work again and had planned on going to the cinema but I…

Week 11 – 2017 Work Work Work

Week 11 – more hours in work, 2 cinema visits and one sunny spring day!

Monday – The forecast was for a warm sunny day so we went for a walk around Cwmbran Boating Lake. Then through the football fields to the local pub, The Crows Nest. It was so warm we decided to sit outside and have a drink. It was lovely to sit in the warm sunshine. It’s so good for the soul.

Week 10 – 2017 Week of Lazy Days

Week 10 was a week of lazy days. Trips to Cardiff, cinema, walks, shoe and household shopping.

This week I’ve been using up the last of my holiday entitlement for 2016/17. We planned to go away but thought it best to stay home as my tummy can’t be depended on!

Sunday– Son and DIL came with the boys. Played with cars and Ashley showed us how to write his name. He’s…

Week 9 – 2017 Mind Numbing Office Politics

Week 9 – the week of getting lost in the hospital, office politics, extra hours and #1day12pics.

Sunday – in work and for once it all went well and I managed to finish early.

Monday – Hospital appointment. Not something I was looking forward to, but who does? We had to be there at 5pm so left home early just in case of rush hour traffic. I’m glad we did…

Week 8 – 2017 Illness strikes again

Week 8 started with illness, doctor’s appointment, then got better as the week wore on.

Sunday – work day and I felt fine when I left home but within an hour I knew I was going to be ill again. Tummy churning and felt really woozy. I managed to last the day and was glad to get home. This is the third tummy bug I’ve had in 6 weeks. Something must be wrong!

Week 7 – 2017 Trying my patience

Week 7 was pretty up and down. Cinema visit, babysitting, work and generally trying to keep busy.

Sunday / Monday – Lazy days pottering about the house.

Tuesday – covering for holiday at work – nice easy day. Glad of that too as son asked me to babysit the boys. Ashley was already in bed when I got there – that boy loves his sleep. Theo was still up and when mummy…

Week 6 – 2017 Busy doing nothing

Week 6 means Hubby’s birthday, a week off work, lunches out and generally lazing around!

On Sunday I went back to work after my sickness. I had to spend some time drying out 4 packs of £5 notes after spilling my tea over the desk!

Tuesday we decided to go to Newport for a wander about. Hubby bought yet another pair of trainers! White ones this time as his old ones…

Week 5 – 2017 1day12pics

Week 5 – 2017 resulted in a week off work due to another dose of illness. A quick visit to see son and the boys and completing #1day12pics

Sunday / Monday not very much going on. Had a chat to the Son in Oz. They’ve settled well in their new apartment. Hopefully they won’t get any problems with misbehaving neighbours like they did at the previous apartment.

Tuesday –…

Week 4 – 2017 another slow week

Week 4 – 2017

Week 4 was pretty much the same as last week. Work, pottering around the house and not much else.

On Sunday son and DIL popped in with the boys. Theo immediately went to the under stairs cupboard to get the garage and cars out and we hardly heard a peep out him. They both had Christmas presents that our friends had for them. A little plane for Theo who loved zooming it round…

Week 3 – 2017 When a penny dropped

It’s been a slow Week 3. Not much going on this week, well until Saturday when a penny dropped!

I really have nothing to tell you about from Sunday to Friday. Days of lazing about and a few days work. No cinema trip this week as there’s nothing we wanted to watch.

We went to our friends house on Saturday for a Curry supper. We’ve not seen them for about 4 months…

Week 2 - 2017 Black White Grey

Week 2 – 2017 Black White Grey

This week it’s Week 2 – 2017 Black White Grey. I’ve been learning about grey scale and how a camera ‘sees’ things. There’s also been cinema visits and light-trail fun!

The week started with work. I was finished by 2pm, got home had lunch and the boys came down. We missed Ash’s birthday as I was ill. He had his card on the day but we kept his present of books for…
