Kitchen table, laptop - finishing report for tomorrow. A few bits to write up for next week and a press release but its all good - minimal whilst the sun is out I say.

Inputting of data finished - report to update to send round the masses before its submitted to womble HQ in stirling.

House ripping out is always fun.

My DH always makes me breakfast. I love his doing this for me. There are some real perks to his being retired. He is always busy, never underfoot and usually in a good mood. Plus, I get breakfast seven days a week. Nothing wrong with this picture.

My job is dinner. We eat a late breakfast and an early dinner so lunch is not usually in there anywhere.
I have been trying to cook mainly out of my food stores. I'm determined to cut my ridiculous monthly food and TA bill down. I'm doing such a good job! (pats self on back):A

Well done on cutting back on the budget Mila - and your DH sounds great. The fridge here is bare aside two yoghurts, half a lettuce and three tatties. Normally this would give me a heart attack but I do like an empty fridge before holidays.

Backflips were very sedate I promise.

Long long long day at the coal face here.

Have lots of planting to do in the garden here too - really need to get some of it done.

Dugs going to their grannies for the week on thurs.

House is slightly tidier since DS left and I finally put mount fuji of washing away.

(He was tidied than the washing).

Plan for tonight is to help by formatting his document. And, I guess start to do a few beds for folks coming.

Although now I say that - the garden is def more appealing. LOL

Should have been paid by garden - need to check.

What's for tea?
