Morning Guys ( just about!)
Elsiepac- if it makes you feel any better, I'm still in my dressing gown too!Like you say, you dont get to do it it very often, you so enjoy your relaxing morning.
I was hoping to go to a car boot this morning, but the weather isnt the best, plus I ache all over today, so bending down rummaging for bargains didnt seem the wisest thing to do!
Today I will-
* List more on ebay
* Read newspapers online
* Have a NSD
* Eat OH lovely roast he's going to cookthen meal plan for rest of the week
* Housework
Might at some point get out of my dressing gown!
Have a lovely Sunday everyone xxLiving as simply as we can
