HELLO MONDAY

As the temperatures continue to rise, this week I'm saying:

HELLO to having  Kirsty and one of her friends from school in residence

HELLO to the washing Kirsty has brought back from Barcelona (she had a few days up there, meeting said friend and taking her to do  'touristy' things)

HELLO to another case which had been left with a friend in Barcelona, but is now sitting in Kirsty's bedroom....even SHE is afraid to open it....she says it's full of 'things'!! I'm thinking on that as 'full of things which I can probably live without, but couldn't be bothered sorting out'!!!

HELLO to saying 'goodbye' to Kirsty for a week or two..she is off to Scotland to help my mum and dad pack up their house..they are moving from their first floor flat to a little bungalow, which will greatly improve my dad's ability to get out and about.

HELLO to taking the girls up to Valencia to fly back to the UK....and maybe factoring in some time for a look around the shops  there!

HELLO to trying to get my eating habits back under control...I haven't put any weight on, but neither am I losing any....I am dreadful for eating ice cream over the summer months, but very little else!!

HELLO to getting some scrapping done...I have actually started a layout, but inspiration just seems to disappear in this heat.


Yes, it DID say 36*C/ 96*F at my back door at 10am this morning!

Whatever you're saying 'Hello' to, I hope you're surviving the heat/ cold/ rain/ sun wherever you are.

Thanks for dropping by! 
Take care of you
Alison xx

  1. 36 degrees at 10am? Phew!
    P's cousin who has the villa in Denia came for tea last night and she was saying she knows the town where you live and it's not far from their place. I think I need to browse the Easyjet website ;-)

  3. Sounds like you have a lovely week planned, well other than the heat. Yikes, that is hot that early in the day!! It is supposed to be cooler here where we live this week. Highs in the low 80's and cool down nicely at night. I say hi to our DS and his wife staying with us for a while. Unfortunate happenings at their apartment with a neighbor and they feel safer here for now. Such a blessing that we have room for them til they get things figured out. ~ Blessings, Tracey

  10. I know I wouldn't be good in that heat - not one for sitting out in the sun even in the cooler climes of the UK.

  11. Lucky you, it was already over 100 degrees here by 10 am! :>(

    I right with you on the weight - no loss, but no gain either, just trying to pull it together when there's no motivation to get out & about in this heat.
