Holiday cottage. They've stayed there before and the children are excited about taking me this year. A has already told me that I have to watch her on a zipline at the zoo playground.

That sounds fun, I'm surprised you're going somewhere they've been before and you aren't all going somewhere new to explore together?
They first went just before Cruella left. She had a burlesque instructors weekend so J took the kids away on his own. The 3 of them love it there and it's very much their place so I like that they very much want me to go. In fact, the kids got really annoyed when I jokingly told them I was staying at home for the peace and quiet!
Ahh, that makes more sense! That sounds lovely that they want you to share their special place.
Been awake since half 5, didn't get back to sleep once J left for work. My hands and wrists are stiff and achey today so going to take it steady.
Supposed to have the decking started today but the guy called round last night to cancel because of the weather forecast and I think he got it right as it's chucking it down!
Weather pretty much the same here Jaq just about holding off rain here at the moment but so dark it could throw it down any time soon.
Holiday cottage in Cumbria sounds ideal :)
Glad I got another coat of paint on the playhouse yesterday Mike as it's chucking it down here again. I timed it right for going to the village shop! It looks so much better now the white paint that bled under the masking tape has gone.
Today I will be painting watering cans! (giggle) A has several toy watering cans that are now leaking so I'm painting them various shaded of purple and we're going to plant them up!
You really are so lovely! You sound like you're enjoying doing things like this with A and T. They're lucky to have you!

The one with the silver handle, that's the colour planned for the summerhouse. It's a bit more "grown up" than the one on the playhouse.
I'm loving putting personal touches to things. I have a paint delivery tomorrow, paint for the garden and the house. The plan is to get the decking painted as soon as it's down. And A is loving growing plants. She has 4 sunflowers on the kitchen windowsill and has grown trailing geraniums too. She's really good about watering them.
Nice colour choices!
I love that you're putting your stamp on things and making them all about your family. You're fabulous!
