BIA cuties...

...inspired by Sarah (Smelly on UKS).

Well, just about HERE there should be some pretty piccies but Blogger is not playing nice...grrrrrrrr, phewy.

I'll try to load the pics later and keep my fingers crossed Blogger will be in a better mood LOL

AT LAST - pics have loaded.

My garden...

...is a MESS!!!

I can't find any of the garden tools, the weather is not playing nice and a horrid great fly got in whilst I had the doors open...grrrrrrrrrrrrrr

It has been ordered...

...one new Ford Focus Estate...wait for it...BLUE!!!!

Well there's a surprise LOL

Mum chose the colour - Vision - which is a metalic turqoisy blue colour, very different from the dark Jeans blue that we have at the moment.

We also stuck with petrol as the advanced payment for the diesel version was quite high and we already had the added cost of having to pay for a hoist & installation.

We will take delivery in mid-Sept..........................

Time to choose...

...a new car.

Mum is entitled to a vehicle under the Motability scheme but can no longer drive due to the stage of her MS, this means I am officially her driver.

We have had three estates so far on this scheme - 9 years, doesn't time fly - and now it is time to go and arrange for a new one.

It will probably be blue, in some shade or other, as this is Mum's favourite colour but this time I am considering whether we should go for a diesel or not - a lot will depend on what is available under the current scheme. I think we are going to need to sort out about some sort of hoist too. Mum has a mini scooter which is so much easier for her when we go out cos it means she still has her independance and can potter about as she wants - it also means I don't have to push her round in her wheelchair as she is becoming more of a deadweight to push. Unfortunately, the scooter needs two people to lift it into the car and Mum can no longer do this - hense the need for a hoist.

I'm sure I'll be back on here tomorrow evening to tell you all about what we have chosen.............

Yummy pie...

You Are Pumpkin Pie

You're the perfect combo of uniqueness and quality. You're able to relate to many types of people with many different tastes. But you're by no means generic or ordinary. In fact, you're one of the most original people around. Those who like you are looking for something (someone!) special. You tend confuse people when they first meet you. You're not as complicated as you seem. Even though you have a lot of spice and flavor to you, you're never overpowering. You are a calm and comforting force in people's lives.

What Kind of Pie Are You?

Mmmmm Chocolate...

What Your Taste in Chocolate Says About You

You are unique, creative, and fascinating. You don't do what's expected of you. You go for what's unknown and uncharted. You are fun loving, outgoing, and very social. You love meeting new people and celebrating. You can be a bit of a fair weather friend. You don't like bad news or drama. You love to be the center of attention. You enjoy entertaining your friends. You feel lost when no one is interested in you... You're too interesting to be ignored.
