Well, after doing naff all today, I had a quick shimmy around the kitchen and made dinner.
Went into town for DD's packed lunch stuff tonight and got rid of the recycling. Came home and decluttered a bottle of wine and some cheese and crackers - must be all those calories burned today walking 10+ miles around the lake
Watched Grand Designs and that new foodie programme - Simon Hopkinson - my oh my, I wish I had smell-o-vision - I'm certain I could taste it.
Power walk in the morning with mate at 8.30 before work, so must get my head down now. Jobs 1 and 2 tomorrow so definitely no time for flying, but I'll be back Wednesday afternoon.
Hugs to those in need ......

I know it looks as though I've been super lazy, but I was being very thorough with the jobs and having to take breaks for my chronic morning sickness and general tiredness - am hoping this improves in the next few weeks although my hypermobility is now starting to play up too, it never ends! :rotfl:
Hope everyone else is having a more restful night.0 -
Positive vibes for your friend Dusty. I hope it's all worry for nothing.
DS3's PE bag turned up at school! I ran around like a mad thing looking for it yesterday morning.
Kitchen floor hoovered. 3 loads of washing hung out on the line. my evening was spent ironing.
I have a non working day today so will tackle some dedicated flying and decluttering. My car is filthy so I will take it to have its quarterly makeover.
I must put some bits on eBay. I'm skint after holiday and paying for my car insurance.
Good day wishes to everyone.0 -

busy day today, already ive made our be and cleared the floordrobe, clean out , fed and watered the poopy pigen-still not heard from owner when its being collected:mad: watered planters on front and filled birdbaths. sorted and put out all recycling so far from kitchen container. paid for school trip and sent replies in for 3 school letters (did scouts letters last night and sorted journey sharing for next week out) wm is on as it was backwoods cooking last night so his uniform stinks :eek:.
Today ive got dentist in the morning then work then feed dh (depending on what dentist does tome i may or may not be hungry) then got to go to mils to take her to her eye hospital appt. have reminded DS2 he is going to friends after school till i contact him to say im home.
