Morning all
Only day off this week :eek: and it it, of course, raining.
Ah well (GLAD GAME ALERT) at least the pollen will be dampened down - DS was horrendous with hayfever last night. Mind you he had been out, in the sunshine, playing football for hours...and my water butt will get a top-up, and my spuds, strawberries, rhubarb and blackcurrants will get a good wetting!

Slower start to the day. I've got a cracking headache and I'm really sleepy so apologise but nothing has stuck when I've read the thread so hugs, vibes, wishes & sticks to those who'd like some! Might go and wash my face with some cold water and see if that wakes me up.
Paid stuff yesterday, and scheduled paid stuff today. Just waiting on my computer to do its scans & updates before I attempt to start. Pointless before then as the browser runs so slow and I'll just get very frustrated.

Off to put the breadmaker on & get some butter out the freezer. Glad I picked 2 blocks up as I'd forgotten DD has her cookery test today and the block I got out yesterday is basically gone. Another coffee is needed as well I think. Might put a sugar in it. :wave:

Morning all. Decided to gym, shower and walk the dogs so bedroom is neglected again. Paid stuff now so I'll see what I can catch up on after.

Morning All :wave:
Didn’t get much done at all last night, DH’s new phone came & he was working so he asked me to set it up. Didn’t get to the high school either as kids were still eating dinner around 4.15 & the uniform people were only there until 5, so I will go tonight. Got the bedding done, & general nightly stuff. My hotspot to do tonight is going to be the ironing, its spilling onto the floor, need to sort it into manageable piles!
Skint– Hope your DD gets her appointment soon & manages to get the support she needs to help her quit.
I have a Week 2 Morrisons Voucher if any good to anyone? I do my shop 4-weekly so its no good to me.
