Multi tasking Granny that's me !

It's been a crazy few weeks. Jennifer, Nancy and Elsie have moved in whilst builders are in their house, so they have been with us for the last month, which has turned our domestic orderliness into complete disarray., Well I say domestic orderliness, but anyone who knows us well, knows that any portrayal of tidy household logic is only apparent for about 20 minutes in any given 2 days. The office is in a shameful state, and never ever gets a proper sort out, as the 6 computer screens are always in need of attention, and any fresh post is sorted into 3 possible landing spots, in the kitchen at Rob's place on the table if it need absolute attention; on the monitor pedestal at my desk (as close to the screen as is possible) if it needs me to file, pay, answer; or on the ever mounting pile of stuff that grows as fast as warm yeast on the desk to my left. This mountain bulges with leaflets, brochures and articles that people send to me; it has intermittant out of date newspapers, each with a turned down page of something that I should pay attention to, and somewhere in that mound is the calendar and our personal telephone book which is sorely in need of an update, as the first entry is for my Mum (Austin) who died in 2004.

But hey, it's autumn and the girls are here and isn't it better for us all to go off for a walk to find some shiny conkers ? They are only little for 5 minutes, so we need to make the most of them don't we? Who cares if there are 3 cheques that need to be entered into the paying in book?
Lets take some of those ginger biscuits that Nancy and I made yesterday, then when we get back we can let them play in the washing baskets with the pegs in again. That kept them busy for a good half an hour.
Do click on the pic of the girls in the baskets and see Elsie's happy little face. She is such a smiler.
Oh well, I had better get off, I'm half way through building a new website for a pub near to Lyme Regis, there is some pork fat rendering down on the aga, the washer has just finished the latest load of nappies, so I had better get them out on the line before Jennifer brings the girls back from pre-school and we tackle peeling, cooking and freezing some of the bucketful of gorgeous cooking apples a kind neighbour gave me yesterday when she came in to cadge a jugful of milk.
I'm off to the theatre tonight with one of my pals to see Top Hat in Plymouth. Just as well it is a lively show that will keep me awake. Will report back on that - if I have any time soon.
Plus I will report on why I have turned into the Princess in the Princess and the pea story !
By the way the ginger biscuit in the G shape is for Grandad not Granny !!!!
Cheerio for now. Jilly
