I've been gone too long.....

So, I've had a rubbish start to the year to be honest and didn't really want to share it with you and depress you all so I stayed away for a bit.  Things are getting better so I though I'd put pen to paper (or fingers to keyboard !!) again and bug you all for a bit.

It's now May, although from the weird weather we have been having lately you would never guess. Last weekend was really nice, well Saturday started off beautiful and hot, I mowed the lawn and tidied the garden for a bit, pegged the washing out and even sat and read my book for a bit. Then all of a sudden, the sky turned dark and then it rained.... rained..... and then thundered !! What is all that about?! Bang went my plans for a BBQ with the kids, yup you can blame me doodlebugs for weather haha. Sunday was a different story, the sun was shining we sat in the garden, even teen one came out in the sun for a couple of hours, miracles will never cease, generally he never leaves him room, typical teen eh?! (Or is that just mine?!) I did BBQ sausage sandwiches for lunch and then did a roast in the evening. Yes, I know it was a scorcher but it was a rare treat for me having the kids on a Sunday and actually being able to cook a roast dinner I didn't want to miss out. (In fact I had the kids all weekend, neither of them wanted to go to their dads.)  it really was a lovely day. Everything seems so much better when the sun shines doesn't it?

 Can't wait for the flowers to start blooming

Anyway I need to dash now, busy day ahead, need to make my house presentable and bake as got the girls coming over later also popping out to a friends for the afternoon beforehand. Better get my skates on haha

Catch ya later Doodlebugs
