Just Checking In..............Be Back Tomorrow


First up I would like to say thank you to everyone who wished my sister Jeannie a happy birthday she said she had a good day when I saw her on Friday morning for breakfast and she seemed to like the present I gave her, well I didn't just give her one thing I gave her a bag of things.

I have been so bloody busy the last couple of days I have not been able to do a lot of blogging in fact this afternoon when I got to check my emails at last it took me a couple of hours to go through them all, bugga how things mount up in only a couple of days.............lol

Now to what has been keeping me so busy well yesterday was Friday and every Friday is busy but today I went to a baby shower yes another one this one was for my nephews mother "Michelle" now Michelle isn't a relation of ours but she is family in a way since she is Dawson's mother............she is due around the 20th August and is having another boy. Even though her mother was invited she didn't turn up because she couldn't be bothered in fact her mother hasn't been much of a mother to her so it wasn't much of a surprise that she couldn't be bother to turn up.

I still have one more baby shower to go to next month and that will be for  my sister Sandra.

This afternoon I have been reading blogs and emails while watching the movie Kelly's Heroe's staring Clint Eastwood and Telly Savalas this is one of my all time favourtie movies.

I will do a better post tomororow just checking in this afternoon.

  1. You have been keeping busy! I, too, enjoy that movie. They don't make them like they used to (wow, that makes me sound really old!).

    1. Yes I feel old too when I think things like that but honestly you are right some of the older movies are just so much better then some of the dribble they make now days.........

  2. I used to have a crush on Telly Savalas when I was a kid!
    Haven't seen Kelly's Heros, though.

    1. Yes even though the baby will not be any relation to mum I can see her helping Michelle with the baby since that is the way mum is...

  4. I so know what you mean about things piling up. I am still ploying through stuff after my trip.

    How sad that a daughter's mother can't be bothered with her daughter's baby shower. I am so glad you're there for her. No matter the relationship, it still has to hurt on some level. Have a great week-end my friend

  5. I couldn't agree with you more when you say that you only have to turn your back for a minute here in bloggyland, and, bop, you just get so behind with everyone!!! Exciting news about another baby in the family, and I'm glad your sister liked her pressie. That is really sad that the mother couldn't be bothere4d with her own daughter's baby shower. It really is quite sad, but at least you were there for her, as you are for everyone :)

    1. Yes yesterday afternoon felt like it was a catch up day but it only took me about 3 hours to get through all my emails including the blogs that get emailed to me. Michelle's mother has never really been there for her so it is not a big surprise that she couldn't be bothered.
