Well Maesie and Deb are visiting in the morning so I thought I better try and straighten this house up (as much as you can with two teenagers!). I really didnt know what to do first! I put all the washing on and while I was waiting, I found that the fridge needed a good clean out. I took out everything and got rid of the out of date stuff etc etc. Once that was looking all spic and span I attacked the freezer. Phew! Makes me tired even thinking of it! It now looks brand new again and everything is placed back in there nice and tidily!!

I then vacuumed,made the beds, and was just about to step outside to tackle the garden when the phone rang. You guessed it, it was work wanted to know if I could come in for 5 hours . Me being a big softie and cant say "no" had a quick shower and reluctantly went to work thinking of all the things I should be doing before my visitors get here!

Well once I got home I whipper snipped and then mowed. That was until I ran out of petrol. So raced down to the garage and filled up the petrol container!! Finally finished the lawn at 5.50 pm. Washed the kitchen floor and then had a sit down for 10 minutes,wondered what to have for tea, and we voted for pizza, so at least I didnt have to cook!!

Then I got to wondering what I could serve my guests and decided they might like a home made caramel tart so I have just taken that out of the oven. So now after having not stopped all day I think I will run myself a loooooong hot bath and relax. All I need to do in the morning is weed the garden and clean the aviaries out all before 10am.

At least getting visitors makes you do all those jobs that should be done but you keep putting them off till another day!!

Deb- Sounds like you have been so busy that are we going to be watching you having a nanna nap tomorrow. I hope you remembered i am bring a 2 year old, i would have cleaned after we left.

Well Maesie and Deb (and 2 y.o Lucy!) have just left to go back home. We had a lovely time while they were here. I showed them my menagerie (outside and inside)and went to the club and had lunch and talked "budgies"! We didnt have a lot of time together as Deb had to get home to collect her children from school.

It was great to actually meet members of the forum in real life! Didnt get to take any photos of us all together though which was disappointing.;

Sounds like you all had a great time :budgiedance:

Glad you had a wonderful time

:hap:

Hope you guys have an awesome day , sorry couldn't make it
