- Dinner off meal plan (schnitzels, yum)

Hey, we've got schnitzels tonight too!




So far today I have:

• checked banking
• checked for surveys
• run dishwasher overnight on cheap electricity
• given the chicken coop and run a thorough scrub and disinfect - now maybe they'll reward me with an egg or four!
• made banana loaf with over ripe bananas snaffled from DD's fruit bowl yesterday. Smells good and I can't wait for it to cool down

I will also:

• spend whole afternoon in sewing room as I need to get some work done
• send DH to allotment on his own or I won't achieve the above
• lunch from stores
• dinner from meal plan (although it was actually yesterday's meal as I slept from 3 to 7. DH made dinner but doesn't know how to make schnitzels)
• have an NSD, 8th one out of a target of 12 for this month so on track there

Have a good Thursday people, not long til the weekend.

Hi everyone - hope you have a great last day at work Cleosmum! I didn't manage to get on yesterday as I was running round like a loony til about 9, then thought I should devote myself to OH for a bit as it was our wedding anniversary. But I did have a LSD.

Today I:
1) Have scrubbed T's old slide, rocker and tricycle ready to pass on to my nephew who is 1 today!:)
2) We are off to visit said nephew in a minute for bday lunch. My sister and her boys are staying down here at my Mum's, whilst she is in the hospital.
3) Present and card from stash.
4) Will visit my Mum later and combine it with a trip to Tesco which is next to the hospital.
5) Lots of hokey cokey drying on the line. We are going to Devon for the weekend tomorrow so I will need to pack everything later.
6) Checked banking, quidco, did SC. ( 20p)
7) Use up all our veggies for dinner so they don't go off while we are away.
8) Go for a walk in the local crem garden as today is not only my nephew's bday but the anniversary of my dad passing on. The garden is lovely, and it is nice to see his name in the book of rememberance so it is a happy tradition that I like to keep up. It's just a pity my Mum can't join in this year.

Anyway, get out and enjoy the sunshine everyone! Have a lovely day, L x

Hi Littlekel, we are staying at Haven Devon Cliffs in Exmouth. It was a Sun £9.50 holiday, and we are going with some friends who have been before and like it there. Hopefully the weather will be nice - with no volcanic ash cloud !
