Grateful for the fantastic weather, a hard training session, the fact it is exactly a month to my wedding!
Was feeling a bit blue earlier (no reason that I could see bit back to my normal self this evening)

Thanks for the free pass mothernerd - I really do hate gardening (so much that I pay a man to keep it tidy for me which is just about the least mse thing I do) so won't be joining in there. I can arrange a coffee date with bestie though

Today much better than yesterday thank goodness, although I do feel quite zombie like at the moment. It's all work and not much else at the moment...
I am grateful for good colleagues and supportive friends.
And my crochet which really helps me to wind down.

I dont have a garden at all. We do have communal bit but it is very well cared for.

Quick check in. Caught up with (and in) sewing last night until the early hours, whilst watching old episodes of Taggart (with Mark McManus).

Eyes a bit sore this am.

Lovely crafts session - chimneys, windows, doors for fairy houses for two participants plus a butterfly picture with added menagerie for the blind girl. Fell asleep on the bed when I got home and going back to sleep asap.

Bins in, washing in, shopping postponed.

Today I am grateful for seeing a ladybird, for more interesting local activities, for doing all that I had to do, if not all I would have liked to do.

Woohoo - another NSD - taking me to 6 so far.

Thanks for the mention mothernerd - I love to grow things whether that is for prettiness or to eat. I love being outside in the fresh air.
I grow my main veg on my allotment but the more precious stuff like peas, French beans and tomatoes I grow in the vegetable patch at the top of the garden.

At the moment on the allotment I am just cutting back bramble and now the ground is dryer I will start to dig more beds and also turn over the used beds from last year and think about what I am going to plant.
I know some people have planted seeds already but I think it is too early still and from looking at facebook groups most people's seedlings have gone all leggy.

I will skip the coffee meeting this week as I was out 3 times last week and that was naughty!!

Today I am grateful for:
1. The lovely weather (at 6.15 it was misty but by 7 it was lovely and bright)
2. Goose eggs (my geese have started to lay and I had one for tea)
3. Being able to help my parents with a Tax Credits problem.

Funny enough I only said to DH this week that David Tenant (swoon) is channeling Taggart in Broadchurch this season. The brusque shouts of 'Millar' etc etc. NB he's not very swoony in that role.

Hello, was meant to start in the conservatory tonight but did a top up shop instead to tie us over to Sat including food for the dinner on Sat when we invited friends over. Also did some more diy planning to de-eighties-fy our bedroom without spending a fortune. So fat my budget for redecorating has been about £100 per room (paper, paint, shelves, accessories) and i stuck to it. Might up it to 200as we also need bedside tables and lamps. Unless i can gumtree etc. Started stripping the wallpaper. Might take Mo off when OH is away with work and the kids are in school etc to get going with the bedroom diy.

Not a spendy day, bought chocolate, ate loads and put on a pound at weigh in, oh well :rotfl:

Heya!

Today I am grateful for:

A day off to chill
For having food in my cupboards and never going hungry
For a better relationship with my housemate

Today = NSD number 8

Use it or lose it : Garden - Live in a houseshare and flat mate owns/manages the garden. I do have some houseplants that need some TLC desperately, so will get on that

Well-being : Don't complain - I'll try not to.
