So far this morning put some washing through and it is now blowing well on the line. Been to the post van and met a lovely lady who lives in the village and had a good natter:T
Spent yesterday at the dentist, my cousins and then at the support group last night. Struck off a fair bit on my 'others' list so that was good but now playing catch up today.
First job will be de-cluttering my coffee and then some lunch before I get going.

Been to the post van and met a lovely lady who lives in the village and had a good natter:T
I love the idea of a post van, is it one which takes you to other villages like Postman Pat. Oh I love Postman Pat - original not the new one. I am a cross between Mrs Goggins and Miss Hubbard
Been to the dentist
Been to the chemist
Been to the dump for recycling
Washing on the line
Just having a cuppa and proof reading street party letter for DH to print then I have struck a deal with myself - deep clean the last window upstairs and the reward is an hour in the garden later when hopefully the sun will be out :rotfl:The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0
