Morning, slightly disastrous two weeks. Back to work then went downhill. I'm having to take some time out to recover fully. I'm finding this really frustrating.
Anyway, Mr T and I are off for a gentle, short dog walk shortly. I want to get some structure back into my days again. I'm giving myself a number of tasks to do each day but including tons of rest in between.
On a :money:front, we've had a good haul from TCB and I've OPd another £30 this weekend.
Freezer inventory is done and today I'm menu planning for March/April.
All financials are up to date
I can certainly say, that I never expected to feel like this. It's been a huge wake up call and definitely health and family are more important than anything.
I'll start to post more during the next week and thanks for your lovely messages.

Hi, Mr T is taking me to the theatre this evening
. I've had a restful week and feeling much improved. I'm under strict instructions from Mr T to take it easy - it's pretty boring though
On a positive note, I have used time this week to sew some buttons on items which had mislaid them. The washing and ironing is up to date
I've Tilly Tidied 94p to MOS.
I've been paid - definitely feel guilty about that - and I've had fun shuffling :T
Project freezer use up is going well. I'm filling the freezer drawers with tons of carrier bags as I empty a drawer.
Budget for shopping tomorrow is £15 :eek: The fridge has lots of stuff left and I only need fruit and milk. I've put myself on a strict diet as the meds I've been on, have not been good for my weight.
Squirrel, I'll empty my inbox tomorrow morning and will message you.
I hope everyone has a healthy and positive weekend. The sun has shone all day here and it's been delightful.
Finally, I've just watched Raymond Blanc's latest show on iplayer. He comes across as such a lovely guy. I found it interesting to learn about where our veg came from originally.
Very best wishes, Tilly x x2004 £387k 29 years - MF March 2033:eek:
