    Morning ATT, I would say I'm about 80% - still feeling tired come the evening but managing work wise which is better for my head :)

    Two packs of 9 loo rolls may have jumped into my basket

    Hi Tilly, really please to hear you are on the up and that your managing work wise, we know work should come second place to our health but I think often if we are not on top of our work it plays on the mind and slows down our recovery or the pace we can relax. Not sure whether I've worded that very well but I'm sure you know what I mean

    Only 18 loo rolls, I'm impressed ;)

    Regards

  • Now GG, how can I do my mountains of laundry without soap powder?

    Maybe we'll need to do another on line purchase?

  • Lovely, lovely morning.

    We walked the hounds for a couple of hours and did some volunteering at the same time. We also discovered an add on to the walk which we will be doing in future as well.

    Came home and emptied the kitchen fridge, cleaned everything, sorted the contents, added them to a spreadsheet and put everything back. Clean, organised and now I can find ways of using the rest of the jars/bottles up.

    Then we had brunch - combination of English breakfast with chilli sausages mmmmmmmmm.

    Washing flapping on the line, electric blanket from DSs bed in the machine and hopefully that can flap round on the line before it pours down. Weird day - pretty wrm but overcast. Certainly looks like it could pour.

    We're walking the dogs to the library mid afternoon but for now I'm done - I'm having a sneaky lie on the bed and a wee nap.

    Have a good Sunday

    Still no pennies to TT :o
