Pub visit and an Empty Home

 Bank Holiday Monday daughter was feeling a lot better so we all went to a small pub. They had an Irish band playing folk music and old songs, with several people singing along and dancing. Reminded me of when I used to take my mother out to listen to pub music and sing along to it years ago. Boxed pizzas were being cooked in the pub kitchen with a variety of toppings. They weren't cheap but very nice and similar to Domino's. It saved OH cooking that evening so he was pleased about that. 

Tuesday morning our nephew left promising to come back this weekend. He's very keen to live here by the sea, and as he has vast experience in the building trade could get a job quite easily. They are building 100s and 100s of new houses a few miles from where we are living. Daughter and granddaughter left after dinner last night. They were planning on returning home on Monday but stayed an extra day as she's been ill.

Today is Wednesday, and we are alone. I've made a start on cleaning the house which is looking quite run down. (Actually quite grubby in places) I must admit I've not done very much cleaning over the past 2 weeks, as I tend to let it slide when family are staying.) The kitchen has been cleaned today, so tomorrow will be the bathrooms. That's the plan anyway if I stick to it lol. Cleaning does take me a long time now as I have to stop every half an hour and rest. One of the joys of having COPD, but it's not too bad, and OH has vacuumed the whole house this morning.

 I managed to dye my hair today too,  as it was looking a bit grey at the roots and neglected. It's ages since I last did it. I've taken 2 allergy pills incase I'm allergic but all is OK so far. I do tend to react to perfumed creams, shower gels etc. I always do my own hair, dying it at home, because I don't actually like going to the hairdresser and being fussed about with. Haircuts for me are usually twice a year or even longer apart too. 

Bye for now 

All the best Sally x
