Evening, what a day.
I'd love to say that work is calm and easily achievable :rotfl:
PT sessions - loving them and definitely working hard.
Mr T has a little disaster going on at work so may well be working through the night. At least he's at home not on site - there are some guys who won't be seeing their homes until the morning
Miss T made dinner again - what a darling - spicy courgettes with humous, broad beans and spring onions served with mini pittas :T. Griddled (is that really a word?) chicken, julienne carrots/cucumber served with yoghurt, garlic and lemon dressing again served with pitta breads. Only took 15 mins to make and definitely one to go in the make again pile?
We have a blissful day of nothingness tomorrow and we will be taking a leisurely cycle and if the weather stays fine, a little picnic may come along too.
Squirrel - L!dl on a Friday around 6 is surprising round here. Not too busy, still good selection of fruit and veg - no shopping over the weekend :T
HDK, I'm not at the stage when I miss it but I definitely feel better for going. Spinning again this coming week
Lula, sadly I was stuck in the office all day and missed the blue sky. The air did smell lovely though on the way to the car. Fingers crossed for a dry Saturday
Habibiboo, negotiations are fairly troublesome but going in the right direction at the moment.
I'm off to bed as I'm taking DD to work at a most ungodly hour in the morning.

Morning, Saturday was glorious. The sun shone for hours, all the washing dried on the line, ironing finished, thorough clean upstairs and plenty of time for sitting and chatting with Mr T.
Shopping came to £56 all together which included £14 on rib eye steaks
I've started using vinegar in the washing machine - 21p from L!dl - it was smelling stale. I guess it's because most of the washing is on 30 degrees, or occasionally 40/60. Has worked a treat.
Off to the gym shortly and I must admit a lie in is calling. I know that once I'm there, all will be fine.
Today will be another NSD.
DS is away and home this evening - his order for dinner, toad in the hole, veg and onion gravy :rotfl:
Have a good Sunday and I hope we all escape the rain

I have been using vinegar in the dishwasher instead of rinse aid.0
