Up & dressed. DW & WM on. Started on kitchen, then took kids to school.
I need to upload photos & clear some disc space on the camera, and make sure I have batteries charged. DH needs it for his 3 Peaks Challenge later in the week (hoping he gets some good sunrise-over-the-mountain pics). I also need to make sure I have enough safety film for the windows in the new shed and go to the docs at 10.45.

Not feeling too great this morning, had a good cry last night, feeling sorry for myself and sick of everything (debt etc) but just need to pull my socks up and keep on keeping on.
