oooo I like the HA-less outfit today! :D

That stinks on the lights :K Hopefully if the electrician finds it's something that the roofers did, you'll be able to claim the cost back from the roofing company - that seems too much of a co-incidence for the lights to just suddenly fail after they'd been working on the roof!

thank you. I love yours today too. Niamh looks very pretty. Roofers covered the cost of the electrician. It wound up being to breakers that flipped and the second one just needed to be turned off and then back on so YAY!!

thanks :D I couldn't resist trying out more of the Melody's Cottage things ;) Blade's looking great today, that's a great background for him :D Yay for them covering the cost, and also for it being a relatively easy fix! It made sense getting the electrician to check it out though, just to be on the safe side ;)

That is a long day indeed .>_< and who can nap with that kinda noise, eh? Went to the movies today. Saw the new fantastick beasts movie. Quite liked it. :) Hope you get a more relaxing day today. :hugs:

Aww, such a great age! That seems to young to me to be starting school! I didnt start until I was 7! Now kids here start at 6 tho. :)

Yeah, the first year for school is the September when the kid's 4 years old. When I started, you'd go for just the morning to start with, then build up to morning and afternoon ;) But you then move up to the main infants classes at 5 years old, then junior school at 7 years old, with senior school from 11 years old to 18 ;)

thanks :D Yeah. Very happy to have it sorted. Nimah looks adorable in her jammies :D

yeah it was a hellva day ooh soudns nice :D much more relaxing today.

ooo that's a snazzy outfit today, looks like we both had the same idea with that Piggy top ;) Thanks :D Seeing as I had a Night Before Lumi box arrive, I had to make a HA with the pjs :D

why thank you :D Nimah looks fantastic too. :) lol and the same background too! it was perfect.

laughs I nearly used the same skating pond background behind the window too, but Niamh said she wanted a background with more red in it :P

haha great minds right :D? that bg is great too

laughs I'm obviously picking up your HA-making skills :P

Been to my nephews bday today. :) And my dad helped fix my washer today. :) Relaxing now while the washer is on, hopefully not spilling water anymore. lol

Hopefully the younger ones get plenty of play time as well. :) For us is 1-7th grade starting at the age of 6. Before that kids get pre-school in kindergarden etc. Then a new school from 8-10th. Most do 11-13th grade too, you are garanteed to get into a school, but you can chose to drop out even if that is very much discouraged. :) I guess you could call it it grade school, junior high and high school? :)

that makes more sense than ours - it's compulsory now to be in education until the age of 18 here (used to be up to 16), but that includes things like apprenticeships (like carpentry or mechanics) so it's not all top end stuff.

or I you :P happy birthday to him :) THat's great he can help with things like that -crosses fingers-

nah, you're the master bows :P

nope LOL I'm not

:nods: Here from 11th grade and up you can choose to pick the occupational route- like becoming an electrictian etc., which is more practical- but with some academics as well:) Or you can do like I did.. study academics to be able to study at a college or university. :) Hopefully I make sense, I find it hard to explain things sometimes in english. :)

Thanks, he will be 7 on the 20th. Celebrated with our part of the family early. He has party with his dads part of the family too- and his classmates. lol

Did two loads today, and the floor stayed dry- so looks like it did the trick. :D I am very lucky he is such a handyman- god knows I am not that handy. lol

they grow so fast. that sounds like he'll be spoiled! that's fantastic

agrees to disagree :P 😇

that makes sense nods I decided I'd had enough of education by the time I was 18, so I got a job rather than going to University laughs

I agree to disagree to your disagreement :P I like Paddy's ha. Is any of that from the pawn shop?
