Sue's Blog - Some assembly required.

Still a work in progress

A busy weekend.
Saturday we did some shopping for Lauren's bedroom and then went to the gym.
I have to admit it is getting easier now although my back was a little bit dodgy.
I can do ab crunches more easily than I could before, not like some of the people in there though.
Some of the blokes were doing pull ups with huge weights tied to their belts.
I wouldn't have been able to lift the weights let alone do pull ups with them.

Back then to inspect the flower mat, on which Philip says he can see one or two teeny, tiny shoots.
I saw them too but they are really tiny.
It looked like someone had got this 20 feet of carpet and planted 6 cress seeds spaced out along it.
Rather sad really.

Sunday we went shopping again and bought the above curtain pole and various pink accessories.
We have decided to get the pink (notice a bit of a theme here) sparkly shear curtains and white blinds for her bedroom.
This room seems never ending.
Next week we will order the carpet from the first place we went .......not from the obnoxious salesman in that other place.

Alan phoned on Thursday, his second call since he went back in February.
We always call him back to save him the money but he doesn't like us to call him first as it has to be at night for him and if he isn't there his landlady would have to answer.
He sounds ok and work is ok. Philip wasn't in as he was golfing so he is going to call again Tuesday.

Last night we had amazing thunderstorms and torrential rain. I am going out in a minute to see if my flower mat has either :

1, produced millions of exotic flowers.
or
2, completed washed away.

Then I shall go and start removing (or trying to) the cork tiles from our bedroom.
That is a lovely job.
