I can't keep up with you Apple! Sounds like you've been super-productive and you inspire me with your lists.
I've started a list of my own which doesn't really have a timescale, but features things I'd like to get done soon(ish).
Today I managed to cross off finishing the painting in the kitchen; the dreaded tax return, and have done some more work in the back garden tonight, so that is an ongoing one.

I feel so much happier when I'm productive and achieve things in the day.

Ohhhhh and...... 10k steps for me today and 62 active minutes - nowhere near super-lilt and amazing apple yet but I'm getting there

Your mortgage overpayments are so impressive apple, as I said, you're an inspiration.

Lots of love
Xx

MeandO - lists are goooood!

Off to make my brekkie - 3 scrambled eggs (in butter of course) with some cottage cheese and ground almonds. Yum!

My working week is done, and what a glorious sunshiney day it has been.

Snuck in a short lumchtime walk; colleague generously brought in 2 old pillows so I can stuff with gaye abandon now; marked my y8 french papers; had lovely time i vigilating (honestly, I really did!); discussed and tried to disuade a colleague from 'having' to go to nandos to use a voucher before it expired; out for tea to some v good friends and dd thoroughly enjoyed playig with their syl fams; dd has chosen to try to go to sleep IN HER OWN BED, BY HERSELF. Ok so sheis extremely late to bed and I am still sat on my own bed, but I can have a lighton!

ok - now to try to post...

Tomorrow, dh has an eye appt at the hosp, so I shall have the car! Usually I don't bother using it but am planning a jaunt out to liddle and then over to the Sally Army shop. Am rather excited!

The thunderstorms did happen. I LOVE thunderstorms. But not quite so much at 4am.

Dd is, thankfully, still asleep. Under ALL the duvet, which she stole from me inch by inch through the night. So much so that I got up around 2 to get her duvet for me to sleep under!

Today's plan:
- school run
- coop for bargains?
- liddle for bargains
- Sally Army bag drop off + wander round the ch shops there for bargains. Drove through there last night and saw that 1 ch shop had massive 50p signs in the window, so I wish to investigate...
- prescription renewal - both dd's and dh's

- tennis starts at 11, so play prob starts around 11.30
- finally finish all the paperwork and send it off
- bunny making
- gardens need tidying - far too many weeds are visible
- the usual wash up, washing, sweep, workout
- aim for 15k steps - tougher with using the car but I'll make a valiant effort

Out and about stuff took longer than anticipated. However, the bargain fairy was around.

Coop provided - for under £5 ad I had a 50p voucher - a 1.2k chicken, toms, apricots, 12 eggs, 2 choc puds for dd, bhajis for dh.

Dentist appts changed.

Ch shops - lovely floral union flag cotton shopping bag (20p!), 7 books, 3 syl fam jigsaws, 9 items of clothing, a dvd, 3 dolls - all for £6.90.

And liddle delivered on syrup and choc drops so I can make a tinful of Lilt's cookies for a friend. Plus socks and leggings for dd.

Lunch is ready, tennis is on. Let's hope this posts...

Great bargains Apple! Please send the fairy my way.

We haven't had the thunderstorms yet, but I'm hoping they appear later, I love a good thunderstorm as long as it's not too close...
