Your day sounds like bliss! I am having one of those tomorrow! Lots of Cockapoo time and walking in the woods with a friend and her doggies and our children. Much nicer! :)
Talking about walking with friends and their dogs, look what me and my cockapoos got up to on Thursday:

We had so much fun :)
Aaww! That is lovely. I am lucky like you and have friends with dogs and now the kids are back to school we have just started a Friday walk in the woods. So lovely! My friends pups are only 15 weeks though, Florence a JD Cockapoo and Dexter a Golden Retriever! It was very funny as the two youngsters were rolling all over eachother and Daisy was being little miss sensible! :rolleyes: I was a very proud Cockapoo Mummy though as she went off lead brilliantly and came back on every recall! :D Tomorrow is a walk with a different friend who has two lovely labs, one is the same age as Daisy so I am expecting lots of silliness! :) xx
Phew, I'm exhausted reading about everyone else's busy day :D

Thought I'd add mine in....

Wake at 4.15am - worry brain turned on
Go and clear up last nights take away curry mess :eek:, clean kitchen, load dishwasher, drink cup of tea.
4.45am - back to bed, toss and turn :(
8.15am wake up:confused: (must have slept!). 30mins to shower and get beauty room ready for client.
8.45am start work - finish at 12pm (luckily hubby walked Mille :))
Talk to youngest son about his plans for the next year (huge milestone :D, long story)
1pm food shop (text from hubby, his parents have turned up and his mum is waiting to have her nails done :eek:)
2pm dash in, do mother-in-laws nails. At the same time my brother, his family & labradoodle turn up.
Chaos ensues ;):)
4pm everyone goes away, realise I haven't eaten breakfast or lunch :rolleyes: Grab a roll.
5pm Take Millie for a walk and do reconnaissance of Verulam Park in prep for Poo Fest
6.16pm Prepare tomorrow's dinner - 14 people for dinner. One of my sister-in-laws invited us round for dinner to celebrate mother-in-laws birthday(she now has now nails!!). Said yes, lovely, then a few days later asks if I would like to host instead :confused: Must have muppet written over my head :D

8pm, sitting here having a lovely cup of tea (what no wine !) and cooking sausages for dinner.

Plus overseeing 3 loads of washing & drying as eldest son has decided he'll go back to uni tonight :washing:, funny how he starts and I end up doing the rest :)

Can I go to bed yet zzzz :D

Oh my goodness! Poor you, so busy and 14 for dinner tomorrow! I thought my mornings were early but 4.45am! You must be exhausted :( I hope you sleep better tonight and that your day is not too hectic tomorrow. xx
Hi,
My day went like this:

5.45am Me and Kids up and dressed
6.45am Picked up my Sister in Law and drove for 2 hrs to pick up Kipper (no hardship there!!)
12.30ish arrived home- lots of oo-ing, ahh-ing and 'Cripes- what do we do now?'-ing!!
1pm-ish Hubby rings to say he's had a car accident on his way home from a work do and will need towing home.
1.10-ish SOS call from my 90 year old Grandad, He's dropped his plateful of dinner, can't clear it up, is panicking and can I go to him straightaway!

Thank goodness my family are local- I didn't know what to deal with first!

The afternoon and evening were a breeze compared to the first hour home!

Now for the first night!

Julie - your day was manic ... up at 4.15 ... you need wine tomorrow :)

Pip - You win for collecting a puppy :) ... hope hubby is ok !!! and of course Grandad too ...
I think we're all a mad lot. All we want to do is play with our lovely adorable cockapoos. And what happens - all these interuptions from family and friends. Its not fair :)

Don't they know its a full time job cooing and ahing over a cockapoo :D:D

Somehow alas, I don't think it will wash.

Oh, thanks to this thread I sat down and watch Xfactor for the first time in years (went right off it when it was the Simon Cowel show) and really enjoyed it. Thanks all. Feel most chilled, bit of supper and a GOW (Glass of Wine) :D :D :D

There are definitely too many interruptions! :)

Glad you enjoyed the X Factor and your well deserved glass of wine. xx
Thanks Sezra

Hubby is fine but unfortunately the car isn't! Never mind it'll mend!
