evening all :hello:
I'm in, I sart my holiday on friday and the following 10 days will be sort out days, so I want the house spik and span so that I can either S&S to keep it good, or at least don't have the massive declutter to do before tackling a job. So 4 days to get a grip:p
Dad will be home from hospital tomorrow night, so no more visits or collecting Mum.
Decided on a version of MSE mantra for food.
Do I need to eat it
Can I afford the calories:eek:
have I checked for a lower calorie version:T
I hope I can shed some calorie pounds:TSue

Hope everyone had a lovely weekend and enjoyed the sun. I havent caught up with last weks thread yet, so hugs, spoons and sticks to all who need or want them."Let your boat of life be light, pack only what you need- A homely home and simple pleasures,one or two friends worth the name, someone to love and someone who loves you, a cat, a dog, a pipe or two enough to eat, enough to wear and a little more than enough to drink, as thirst is a dangerous thing" Jerome k.
