Morning everyone :hello:
Tuesday again already :rolleyes: Don't the weeks go by quickly? I didn't post over the weekend or yesterday because I was so busy. I had loads to do on Sat, including setting up new broadband because @0l had annoyed me so much, and was inundated with visitors on Sun. My grown up kids, their partners and kids (and dogs) all decided that they would descend on me as it was Mothers Day, and I could cook them lunch
It was lovely to see them though! Yesterday I was recovering (and back at work of course :rolleyes: )
So far today I have:
Checked online banking
Seen to animals
Brought packed lunch to work
Charging mobile at work
Not NSD today, as I have to get my hair cut later this afternoon, and will probably pop into Boots and Mr T's as I will be in town anyway.
Walk dogs later for free exercise
Storecupboard supper
Have a nice day everyone, and hope the poorlies feel better soon!0 -
