Son and family were here for lunch on Sunday, I was going to go to their house but needed help to get the furniture back into the bedroom so they brought the dinner to cook here. Willow is beginning to have a little proper food, she wasn't quite sure about pureed sweet potato, but managed to get covered in it!
Monday and the work on the kitchen refurbishment is beginning, it's being done by a local man who advertises in the Parish Magazine, a one man business and hopefully reliable.
I'm beginning reading a new book having finished Enigma by Robert Harris, which I really enjoyed. It's been added to my books read list.
Thank you for comments over the last few days, apologies for not replying to many or commenting on other blogs - I'm hopeless!.
Back Tomorrow
Sue
(This whole post is really just an excuse for a photo of Willow!)
As someone who always replies to all my comments I am quite envious of bloggers who have the ability not to although it puzzles me why some never reply to any I have to say, not that you fall into that category. Willow is looking nice. I recently read a Robert Harris at Gwil's recommendation. It was good.
ReplyDeleteI can definitely recommend Enigma by Robert Harris. Set around Bletchley Park and Cambridge mid war years, a good story
DeleteThe one Gwil recommended was The Ghost. It was a story that we both paralleled to Blair and the murder of Dr David Kelly.
DeleteFirst things first! It's a gorgeous photo of Willow who looks as though she'll keep you all entertained and fully occupied very shortly!
ReplyDeleteYour new beginnings sound interesting. How long do you expect the kitchen to take?
It must be wonderful to have finished your bedroom project and I assume you'll now be busy arranging clothes etc again.
Will we be allowed to see the end result?
I think you usually comment on comments very well especially when you've been so busy lately. Don't beat yourself up, you're anything but hopeless. Sue
I'm dreading the kitchen work - only the second day and I'm fed up already! Sink bit first then I hope he will leave it a while before doing some more
DeleteWho need an excuse to post such a gorgeous photo. What a darling she is, all squidgy and cuddly!

She really is gorgeous! What bright eyes and I love when their hair starts to grow in like that-so sweet.
ReplyDeleteA lovely excuse, she is adorable. I didn't bother with Strictly this week choosing to watch a film that we had recorded.
ReplyDeleteShe is adorable. They grow and change so quickly. You are really getting on with the house. It must be really satisfying to see the finished jobs.
DeleteOh my goodness she is more adorable everytime I see her! Don't they grow and change quickly! She has the prettiest most inquisitive eyes too. No excuse needed for that picture.
ReplyDeleteYour granddaughter is adorable, you must be very proud of her.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy 'dancing'!
Good luck with the kitchen.
ReplyDeleteWillow is lovely and so pleased they live near enough so you can visit.
It look as though we are going to have a wet day and I need to I change my library books. I have started getting the audio books because I cannot read the original books after the stroke.
Have a nice day Sue.

ReplyDeleteWillow looks an absolute sweetie. How nice to have lunch brought to you and cooked as well!
ReplyDeleteperfect reason to do a post, she is cute!!
ReplyDeletePerfect reason to do a post, she is cute!!
ReplyDeleteOh, she is such a cutie! Look at those dimpled hands!!
ReplyDeleteWillow is gorgeous! Perfectly scrumptious! I was pleased to see Strictly back. They seem a good crop. Brightens the dull winter up, dancing and lots of sparkles, bring it on!
ReplyDeleteWillow is such a cutie and what a lovely name.
ReplyDeleteWillow is just adorable.
ReplyDeleteWe have the kitchen on our list to be done at some point but I am not looking forward to it at all.
Hugs-x-
Willow looks as though she will soon be letting you all know what she really thinks to sweet potato mush!! I hope the kitchen work goes well for you.
ReplyDeleteNo excuse needed. Willow is delightful. Babies and tots always seem to manage to wear more of their food than they consume. Glad your family brought you Willow, dinner and some brawn :). Good luck with the kitchen work.
ReplyDeleteI am delighted SCD is back on. Am a mega fan, but as ever only know some of the celebrities. I'm not a maternal type, but I do like babies when they get to that rounded, cuddly stage.

The photo is lovely, what a gorgeous girl, no excuse needed.
ReplyDeleteI'm struggling to begin a new book,the last one was SO good ... I'm sure you'll understand the problem :-)
Lovely to see Willow sweet potato coating or not!
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous baby, and a super name. I like names that grow with you and Willow is perfect for that. Pleased your kitchen has been started, it will be worth it in the end. You are doing just fine. Love Andie xxx
ReplyDeleteLittle Willow covered in food is a very lovely sight.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to see Strictly back again, I love it. Bill and Violet watch the X Factor, which I'm not a fan of, so to have Strictly to watch instead suits me fine.
Good luck with the kitchen refit. Hope it all goes smoothly.
What a beautiful little cherub! Andrea p.s..I don't mind when people don't respond or comment.
ReplyDeleteAnd Willow is a beautiful baby and we needed to see her.
ReplyDeleteWillow is adorable and how nice of your family to bring dinner to you and help you move the furniture. What all will you have done in your kitchen? Very exciting. ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
ReplyDeleteBeginnings are good, and you have quite a few! Willow is beautiful - so fair and bright eyed!
ReplyDeleteOh, I could just chew on those lovely chubby cheeks!
ReplyDeleteHas Willow got your eyes Sue? There's a definite similarity there!
Jacob, Florence and Willow are all obviously related though aren't they, is it the eyes?
Actually, Sue, I just showed DH the pic of Willow, and he said "she's gorgeous, and the image of Sue"! So there you go, if DH can see a likeness, it's definitely there, he's not usually the most observant of folk!
ReplyDeleteWillow is beautiful and her eyes are amazing. You should be proud.
