Madam ariete

That's the name of our coffee machine. She's a bit temperamental. She won't steam milk when plugged in to the plug behind her, in fact she starts off with a surge of steam then after 15 seconds she just seems to be whispering at the milk. Then everything on one side of our house switches off. So we have to access fuse board and switch it back on. We thought she was done. We started looking at new machines. She was ready to be put out to coffee machine pastures but ohhhh no.

She's feisty.

Despite being i think about 15 years old and the company no longer making parts for her ie. I can't get her serviced. She decided that if I plugged her in on the other side she worked fine just as she always has. Cheeky.

The thing is i plugged the microwave into the old plug she was having problems with and no issues at all. Confused? Yes yes I am.

We had another lovely day. Kanye wakes every morning and comes to give me a cuddle. He's so sweet with his big green eyes. I love smelling his hair when he cuddles me first thing. Right in the center it smells like it did when he was a baby. I miss his curls his beautiful blonde curls.

We stayed at home and had a great clean up. We had energy post coffee so andre cleaned the tv, behind it and the cabinet was really surprised at how dusty it was. I did the other house work, all 3 boys were content playing in the morning sun in the conservatory while we listened to music. I used the carpet cleaner today too to get hot chocolate I spilt, out.

In the afternoon the boys played in the driveway on their broken go kart. They're funny like that it's still worth playing with even if it's broken. I cleaned out the guinea hutch and the bird cage.

The house was warm today, it was quiet and filled with happy boys. Such a relaxing Saturday.
