So, my wee monster is in the local Beaver Scouts colony. She's the only girl out of a group of 20. She LOVES it. Anyhoo, they had a competition to design a new area badge a few months ago. Long story short is my Chookie was a joint winner! *g* They've basically used her design and added 2 elements (a bridge and tower) from the other boys' design and in a few weeks every beaver, Cub and Scout will be wearing it. I'm so proud!!It was her Beaver trip to Dundee today. They visited the Sensations live science centre and Camperdown park. She had a ball and came home knackered - they left at 9am this morning and got back at half 6. Long day for everyone! The wee pet bought me something from the gift shop, too. Aaaaaw! It's this cute wee green ring (my favourite colour!) destined for my treasures box. Bless her wee heart.
On account of having a Chook free day and him indoors being on standby (there's another story) me Mam and I went shopping in Linlithgow today. I was very good and didn't have a major splurge in the patchwork shop but I did come home with the dearest little Boyd's mouse courtesy of Mammy. Chookie has her eyes set on him but he is MINE!
And poor Spouse? He got in at 2am this morning (having left at 8am yesterday) and was called back out at 4.30am. It is now (time check) after 11pm and he's STILL not home. So that's a 19 hour shift on 2 hours sleep. We are not happy campers.

Hi! I'll try really hard to reply to comments by email (unless you're a no-reply Blogger in which case I can't!) because I love getting your messages but I'm a working mum and don't always manage - I read and appreciate every single one!
