Fingers and (broken) toes crossed.


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): 7.
Tears: No.
Overall day: 😰

Yesterday was a bit of a write-off really. Baggy was so tired. Creative Clara forgot to mention yesterday that one of the things that went wrong when they were at the holiday cottage the other day was that The Domestic Goddess broke one of Baggy's toes! How you ask? Well The Goddess was vacuuming the ceiling - yes baggees, that is correct, she was vacuuming the ceiling beams to get the spider's webs, when she walked straight into the wooden magazine rack. It hurt. A LOT. Cal was off buying things at the time, so missed the funny colour Baggy's face went with the pain. But he couldn't miss the black toe when he got back. So there has been much hobbling since, which has slowed Baggy down. She can only wear flip-flops on her feet as shoes hurt too much. The heat doesn't exactly help, so yesterday afternoon when Furry Mama decided to have a little lie down on the bed with the Hinge cat, Baggy instantly fell asleep. Calum woke her up four hours later at 8.00pm! 


Today they've been over to the holiday cottage to make sure everything is as perfect as it can be for the first ever guests. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! The lawns needed cutting again. The pots needed watering again. Covers needed taking off the outdoor furniture. Patios needed sweeping. But the caretaker/cleaner had cleaned, and made the toilet roll look fancy, and the cooker look sparkly. The house looked lovely. So now if Freda Fretter could just stop worrying about it, all would be well!


Fresh flowers. Hand-made soap. Breakfast hamper. Doggy biscuits. Sunshine. Fingers crossed.


Freda Fretter now doesn't wish to hear a peep from the cottage for a week, unless it's the caretaker phoning to say that the guests loved the place! Now it's time to cross bits for a good first review! But Calum and Baggy have done everything they can, so Hormonal Hannah will just have to keep a lid on her emotions until there's news. At least Creative Clara has a week to improve her information pack, get a budget spreadsheet written, and concentrate on her Realuv shop, for her next vintage fair in ten days time. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah - again! Baggy sometimes thinks that just maybe she has taken too much on. However, it's great to be busy and it's great that the cottage is now officially earning some money!
