    It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.

    Thanks folks :)

    I did get to put my feet up last night, had a glass of wine and fell asleep - again!! So fed up of falling asleep on a Saturday night, I'll be wide awake tonight.

    Have been really busy today - the bedroom and hall/stairs carpet are up and in the skip and I've painted the remaining wall in the bedroom, although it will need another coat.

    Mr SA's toe is looking a lot better apart from a blister has appeared. I've got to take him to the fracture clinic tomorrow morning then drop him off at home and go to work. So another £20 in taxis :( He wanted me to have the whole day off work for a 9am appointment. To be honest I don't want to waste my leave like that so will go into work for half a day and take the morning as flexi.

    Still to do: meal plan, ironing, take dog out again, make soup, make tonight's dinner and put my feet up and watch Hocus Pocus while doing my nails! I've lost count how many times I've seen this film, still love it!

    Hope everyone is having a nice Sunday :)

    There's always so much to do Beanie and only me to do it unfortunately.

    I got to watch Hocus Pocus :) Did my nails then had a lovely long soak in the bath with candles, wine, a face pack and Chill Radio, absolute bliss :)

    I always make sure I have some me time or I'd be on the happy pills.

    Mr SA says the antibiotics are upsetting his stomach :(

    He's having a drink at night but not after he's taken them - he's not a day drinker. His stomach is dodgy at the best of times, the slightest thing upsets it, drives me mad.
