    It is heart breaking when you hear or see the extent of the poverty some people are in. It's hard not to take it home with you. 
    Have a lovely evening. x

    Have browsed your Avon site today and put in an order 😁Some fab bargains on there I had to restrain myself 🤣 Very sobering re all the families that need help, it's a dire situation at the best of times, must be so much worse right now.
    So that was you........was wondering who it was as I didn't recognise it as one of my usual customers xx

    Morning

    How is everyone???

    Time flew in so quickly yesterday.  But felt I didn't get anything productive done.

    Hubby has hurt his back really bad so was running after him and home schooling the kids whilst working so defo multi-tasking.  Sorted out the washing into non-iron and ironing piles so I'm hoping I can get the ironing sorted today and put away.

    Weather looks awfully overcast today so it's much cooler.  

    Logging onto the committee laptop every couple of hours to check on messages so I can pass them on to the relative person.

    I have £139.03 in the holiday saving fund.  I've spoken to hubby and if our holiday needs to be postponed then the holiday savings will get put towards reslabbing my back garden and making it one level and getting hubby a new garage door minus the cost of renewing the boys passports then once we find out when our holiday may be then I'll start the holiday savings again.  Does that make sense??

    Glad it makes sense lol 

    Managed to tackle the huge ironing pile yesterday still to put it away tho 

    Also tackled the kitchen cleaned the cooker (top section) and washed the floors and also managed to fit in a workout session need to watch tho as my right leg kills when I do a squat can't go as low as I normally do.  

    Today however I feel like I have no energy I keep yawning but I'm putting it down to being back on MFP calorie counter it's put me on 1200 calories which I can manage if I'm being very good which I have

    Dropped the puppy over to my grans and went to local shop spent £3.50 on two bottles of juice and a magazine, plan is to get the magazine read before I head back to my grans to get Peggy as I pass my magazines onto my gran.

    Sent £3.50 towards the holiday fund so we are sitting at £142.53, not exciting numbers I know but it will get there.

    Need to get cheese mushrooms and ham today so will take a walk to lidl which will be a 3 mile round trip so not too bad and will make up for the fact that I might not do a workout today xx

    Right off to make myself lunch

    It will get there. Last week it was just a little bit, and now it is more than a hundred pounds. x
