Morning gang,

Thanks for the welcome
Did really well on Monday, Tuesday I seemed to spend the entire day shopping - the husband was with me so we took forever and seemed to come home with more than what was on the shopping list...

Spent the day in bed ill yesterday, must have been all the spending that happened Tuesday, but feeling much better today. Not perfect, but much better. So I'm planning to do as much as I can from the past two days plus today. Not mad - but I shall pick and choose what I'm able to do. Taking it steady and stopping often for lots of water

Have good days all.

Good morning :beer: Another beautiful day here, so some garden-time is planned for this afternoon :j

DH took DS3 to school, so I'm still not dressed. I must call the florist to sort flowers for the funeral. Sorry if this offends anyone but I think that funeral flowers are the biggest waste of money.

I'm not offended :A When I was a student I lived in a really deprived area of Leeds (it's on the up now, of course ). There was an elderly couple over the road from us, not 2 pennies to rub together. When she died, there was a horse-drawn hearse, flowers,etc, etc. Shame she didn't have that money to spend on herself when she was alive

Huge hugs for you today. Take care of yourself, and give a wide berth to anyone who wishes to spoil your memories :A


I'm going to grab a list and try and catch up :j
