What Did You Do For You Today???

[amethist]

Today is a half me half hubby day. :rolleyes:

He has crashed a bit after the last 3 day, but is coping quite well now his brain is not fogged by one of the medication he used to take on a morning anymore.

Our granddaughter stayed an extra night, at my suggestion, to push hubby's boundaries just that bit more again. So I took her home yesterday morning, instead of Friday evening. We then had friend come round to take some garden rubbish to the tip for us. Again I pushed hubby'e boundaries a bit more, by joking that he could not expect them to unload it at the tip, when we could all go and do it half the time.

It was loaded taken to the tip, unloaded and we were back all within an hour.

So while he sleeps and rests today, I can knit, cook and do more sorting out of my work room.

Got ridiculously dressed up for work (Usually just wear jeans and a sweatshirt, it's a casual place.)

Put on skinny jeans and flat booties, with a tshirt, long necklace and set of stackable rings. I blowdried and straightened my hair... but no makeup. That's just asking for too much for today, hah. :giggle:

Today I did more sorting of my room. So the pictures are up, though 2 still need frames, crystals for my art work are now unpacked and put into the small Chinese style drawer unit, and paints brushes and canvas at the ready.

Just have to pluck up the courage to put paint to canvas now. :rolleyes:

I went fishing on the ocean yesterday and a big humpback whale swam right past our boat!

I have shelled a whole bag full of fresh garden peas!

Bathroom is now just about ready for painting. Only thing to do now is finish wiping the ceiling before painting and a bit of minor filling.

Hubby was the gofer again today, and he did a good job passing me bits as I needed them. Not enough balance yet to get on the steps and do the high bits, but he did clean all the tiles and grouting ready for tomorrow when we do a bit more.

So this is really doing for me, as pushing him to lend a hand, gives him something to do and helps me get things done easier. ;)

Oh how devious can we women be at times. :D

So best of both worlds, I get it done quicker, he gets his mind working on something else for a while. :tup:

I bought myself a very spicy laksa for lunch. Boy did I need it after that mad marriage counselling session

Today I took a half hour in between commitments, even though I'm running a half hour late this morning. Got to take the time to balance and breathe.

At the second attempt, :rolleyes: I made the giant cupcake ready to decorate tomorrow. I also tried my hand at making a different type of fondant to cover the base of it with.

It is simple but a bit messy before it is ready to use. All it is is melted marshmallows, a bit of water and icing sugar. Now couloured a wicked shade of pink. So pink sponge cupcake, wickedly pink fondant, paler pink frosting for the top, pink glittery cake fountain, sparkly pink sugar crystals. finished off with kids jelly sweets.

Well it is for my daughter. :D Though you would not know she will be 27 on Monday. :eek:

I will post a pic up when it is finished.
