Note to readers (my lovely Baggees): For the avoidance of any doubt - every character in this blog is me!!! No Baggy was harmed in its writing.
Baggy's daily state!
Depression (Black = really bad/Grey = not great/Blue = okay/Yellow = sunny day): Yellow.
Anxiety (From 1 = barely any to 10 = gibbering wreck standard): 1.
Tears: No.
Pancakes (Yes/No): Hopefully - with ice cream!
Syns (Baggy is allowed 8-15): Baggy seems to have retired from Fat Club :( .
Weight in her terrifying naked state (Stones and pounds): Slightly less than yesterday!
Overall day: 💖
Okay baggees, let's once again refer to "the list"
* Garden to be totally weeded and tidied up at the soon-to-be-a.
* Insurance quotes needed for the soon-to-be-a.
* Schedule to be worked out for an opening date.
* Research to be done on all the items still needed to be bought and a budget done.
* Realuv stock to be researched and priced up.
* Trestle tables for the vintage fair to be checked and a practise display to be organised.
* Billy Bob to be sorted out and cleaned.
* Garage to be reclaimed (again!) so that Grotty Groom can get to the drawers that contain Wesley's face and nose nets.
* New products to be added to Creative Clara's on-line shop.
* Don't panic.
This was today's starting point after the gang's sterling efforts of yesterday. First off Clever Bird needed to add to the list! This is important, as Hormonal Hannah has a habit of wiping really important things from Baggy's brain. This list is now her focus!
* Pay off number one furry's credit card.
* Return the unused floor boards to the DIY store.
* Take a cheque for the farrier to the yard.
* Paint the kitchen cupboard and cabinet at the soon-to-be-a-holiday cottage.
* Remove the trailer from the soon-to-be-a's front garden.
* Paint the soon-to-be-a's front door.
* Buy some plants for the pots at the soon-to-be-a.
* Get the soon-to-be-a ready for photography in two weeks time (eeek!): house front; sitting room; master bedroom; bathroom.
*And breathe.
With the list in mind, Baggy had Furry Mama and Minty Mutt out for a walk before 9.00am. The Domestic Goddess decided that today was the day for once again reclaiming the garage, however in order to do that, a lot of what was dumped in there was from Billy Bob! Billy Bob acted as a spare room for two of Baggy's school friends when they stayed, so all surplus bits ended up in the garage! Stage one of the day was therefore to sort out Billy Bob!
Job done! Billy Bob is ready for his adventures. The minis can't wait. Baggy and Calum just need to find some free time to go away in him!
Next job, the garage.
Done - well kind of!
At least Grotty Groom managed to get to Wesley's face masks, which was the main aim. But also Creative Clara got her packing crates for her to take her stock to the vintage fair and to a garden centre fair the following day!!!!! Plus the motorbikes and bikes are also once again accessible.
Meanwhile The Goddess seemed to have found enough duvets and bedding to wash to keep her entertained for a month!
To add to Baggy's entertainment, Clever Bird decided that as the weather is about to take a turn for the worse, Billy Bob needed to be covered. She managed it, but it's no mean feat without help.
By now Baggy reckoned she deserved tea and hot cross buns. While she ate them Clever Bird phoned Barclaycard to pay off the full amount. She spent a good ten minutes on the automated system to the point where they'd agreed her debit card and the full amount she wanted to pay, only to hear, "We'll transfer you to an operator now". Why? Lots of legal blurb, followed by music, followed by "Hello, how can I help you?" Hormonal Hannah managed not to growl. Since when baggees is it not permitted to pay off your spouse's credit card? Ridiculous! Hannah did then growl and hung up on the chap reading his script and being as much help as a squashed tomato! Clever Bird went to her on-line bank and paid off the full amount. Grrrrr!
Baggy decided to shoot to the DIY store, then to the yard. The Boys were out enjoying a munch, but they both headed straight at Grotty when they saw her.
It's good to feel loved, even if it is just cupboard love! "What you got for me then Mum?"
"Well I might have a treat Joey".
"Might have? I know you have. I can smell the mint. Go on, give me one then!"
"Urrrrrrm Mum, since when does Joey get a treat before me?"
Grotty hopped into her Boy's paddock, armed with Minty Mutt's furminator that she'd borrowed from Furry Mama. She then spent a merry half-an-hour grooming both horses.
The birds will be happy! But as Wesley is still strawberry roan, there's a lot more to come out yet. Grotty decided to be brave and groom Joey too. Why brave? Well because he seems to think of Grotty as his mare and it can get a little interesting when she tries to leave the paddock. But he stood like a poppet and enjoyed every second of his groom.
Mind you he didn't want her to leave! Home via the village farm shop for Furry Mama to buy dog, cat and feathery's food. More washing done and hung up, bloggy blog written, food now required, then products to add to Realuv this evening.........
