If my dog did that the whole tv would be over on the floor.<br />Have a wonderful week!<br />Hugs,<br />MichelleCreative Cardiologyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13576593015985056131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5769800031871534836.post-12690675237204725952017-01-13T21:48:49.623+00:002017-01-13T21:48:49.623+00:00My boys swam in Oswestry Otters and they had to we...My boys swam in Oswestry Otters and they had to wear caps. It is not a bad idea for everyone to do so as there are a lot of chemicals in the water. Also the girls long hair can give them big problems with blocked filters etc. I hope they are enjoying their lessons. It is such a good thing for them to be able to swim. My lot had so much fun in the pools on holiday, and I knew they could handle themselves in the water.<br />Sorry about your machines. I hope they get them sorted for you.<br />Milly was really taking an interest in the TV. Ours never look at it, but they don't like if there is barking dog on there.<br />I am glad you still found something to smile about despite the frustrations.<br />Hopefully this week will be better.

Meaning that the most important things in life (love, family, health etc) are not compromised by these financial setbacks. But I agree, the repairman should have phoned you to say it was going to cost a bit more and then you could decide whether to go ahead. <br />Swimming caps. Yes, what a scream. Your grandies look quite proud of them actually. I remember having to use a swimming cap and they are difficult to put on as I remember. (I had long hair as a girl). <br />I smiled at Millie looking at the animal program on TV.<br />I love the crazy fabric cover. The colours are so vibrant and the material beautiful. That would brighten up my day if I had a diary cover like that. Well done you.<br />I'm surprised at the Ebay customer not paying. I used to sell lots on Ebay before moving to Spain (got rid of loads of stuff) and never had a problem. Having said that I always waited until payment was made before parting with it.<br />Have a good week and keep smiling!<br />Hugs,<br />LiscaLiscahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06055538730629891703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5769800031871534836.post-5809811238361314212017-01-13T10:10:49.466+00:002017-01-13T10:10:49.466+00:00Lots of happy smiles there Annie.

So, I can relate to at least a part of what you went through. I do think the "estimate" should have been a bit more realistic to the final price, though.<br /><br />I do think the grandees and their swim caps are something to smile about. They are truly adorable in those swim caps.<br /><br />Milly had me chuckling. It's amazing what piques their interest.<br /><br />Those fabrics are wonderful for the new cover. I especially like the colors you chose. <br /><br />So glad you keep smiling. It's wonderful to be able to keep your sense of humor during stressful times. Happy Friday and weekend, too.Bleubeard and Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149710375520733752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5769800031871534836.post-11340205876949857602017-01-13T09:08:05.686+00:002017-01-13T09:08:05.686+00:00Well the grandees in their swim caps certainly mad...Well the grandees in their swim caps certainly made me smile. I love how Lexi is posing in her outfit, I think that one is going to be a model when she grows up.<br />Love the picture of Milly too, not quite sure what is attracting her interest but it certainly is something. Bet you had a chuckle over that.<br />Lastly had a nice smile over the cover you made, certainly a thing of beauty and what lovely bright colours, they work so well together.<br />Think we will gloss over the sewing bit you reported on, want to push that to the back of our minds. All too often we have periods like that so let's keep smiling instead.<br />Hugs, Neet 2 xxNeethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13279125547309537517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5769800031871534836.post-78011225777800484752017-01-13T08:47:46.292+00:002017-01-13T08:47:46.292+00:00Hi Annie, I'm sorry to hear about the machines...Hi Annie, I'm sorry to hear about the machines but can't help feeling that a lady as experienced as you should have known these things might happen Lol! but.... on the other hand I have done all these things myself in the past which is why I often didn't get away from school until late in the evening because I had a sewing machine in lots of pieces (schools never have enough money to get them fixed so I had to learn how to do them myself). Denim jeans are something else but I have a system for those! You little ones look so sweet and it's great to see them having so much fun. Better go as the internet is behaving but may not last. Too much snow today so may go for a walk then catch the bus back or maybe do some crafty stuff.
