    Hey thanks and hugs I think at this time is all we can give. Its complicated so we have no funeral date at all yet. Hugs it is then and thank you all.

    Cheery I know you'll do it!

    I've cooked some chicken for the week a bargainous 20p for 6 thighs (got a few packets stashed) they make good lunches with some salad.

    Had me porridge and so its off for a walk for now and gym later.

    I've lost a couple pounds but nothing significant really. Trying to monitor what I eat is almost a full time job with me :)

    Hope you all have a good sunday.

    My only other news is one load of washing done and put away from yesterday will do the dog beds now.

    And, one bag to the charity shop today.

    More tidying to do later, we'll see what we manage, shopping delivered between 7-8 mustnt forget.

    Small steps. Have a great sunday folks.

    Hearing about this loss saddens me. My deepest sympathies go out to you and your family.
    Overprepare, then go with the flow.

    Hey up peeps. Hope you're all well.

    Got a few days of so contemplating doing some tidying up at home and some catching up with chums.

    Need to declutter the fridge/freezer too and get house straight for visitors.

    no rest for the wicked.

    Thanks for all your kind words.
