It started at 6am this morning. I was woken abruptly by my neighbours banging about outside loading cardboard and other rubbish onto the large van he owns. Sadly, I knew they weren't moving because they weren't putting any furniture on the van. I still can't work out how they could get up at that time because they are usually both 'wasted' when they come home on a Saturday night (or should I say early Sunday morning) and normally she is incapable of standing unaided (and not just on a Saturday)!
Well, after discovering what the banging was, I thought I would doze a while before getting up but just as I started to drift off, I was brought back to reality when they started banging the doors of the van and the front door, then after stalling the van a couple of times, they were gone.
Of course, I couldn't get back off to sleep and as Eden was awake too, I came down and made some tea.
When we were up I started on breakfast and all was going well until the toast started to turn a little too dark around the egdes. That led us both to a mad rush to get the kitchen door shut before the fire alarm started screeching as it is far too sensitive.
Disaster averted, the rest of the day continued with various little mishaps until the spectacular finale late this afternoon while I was making dinner. Sarah was coming with Harley to pick up Eden and take her home so I always cook a dinner and today we were going to have roast beef with all the trimmings..........that is until I dropped the tin of yorkshire puddings just as I was putting the tray onto the oven shelf. Eden gave me a hand to clear it up and I quickly made another one then we all had dinner when they arrived.
After they had gone home, I washed the dishes and cleaned the mess out of the oven which by this time had baked on.
I have decided to do nothing else today so I shall sit here until bedtime!
