  • Today I shall not be flying, but I'll catch up over the rest of the week. I'm off to see my sister and the new baby after my training course so I won't get back home until about 10pm tonight. She's asked me to bring the camera as she wants me to take a nice black and white photo for her to send out as the birth announcement card :)

    Happy flying.

    :grouphug: Good morning everyone!!:wave:

    Snowing, sleeting, raining, all in the last hour here in Scotland, horribly cold and wet. But I am in a good mood all be it with a sore head (not pub related)
    Done shopping at Asda, kept within budget, so if we get snowed in, we can eat! Making a rolled pork in Sc today, never done it before, so hope everyone likes it tonight. Making my own apple sauce as looked in Asda, too many additives in a jar. In Holland you buy huge cartons or pots of the stuff, kids eat it with everything, like ketchup here... Sister, yoohoo where are you? Anyone seen Becca? I need "applemoes"

    Moggins list
    put shopping away
    Ironing!!! AND put away ( I used to be in the habit of just leaving it for days on the dining room table:mad: , not any more:D )
    Take DD2 to hospital for her back (finally got appt) this pm
    meeting at school tonight for DD2 Primary 7 trip so need to do everything this morning.

    Better get to it... Have a great day flying everyone :A

    Need to make that chicken soup...but I might leave it until after the school run so the veg doesn't over cook. ;) I'm just not motivated to do anything today. Especially anything that involves going upstairs :rolleyes: Think I'll have a game or something to get my mind working and see if that helps.
    Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.
    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!

    Not a bad morning so far, apart from getting soaked when walking the dog, I don't mind snow and I don't mind rain but that mixture in between is disgusting and soaked us both - a complete change required when I got home I must get some waterproof trousers, keep putting it off as there is no where local.

    Off for lunch and then the bathroom to tackle.
