Morning - what a beautiful morning, cold and clear.
I am meeting up with my brother and family later. My brother and I are very close, despite the fact that he lives at the other end of the country and we dont see each other very often. Cant wait to see him.
Other than that it will be pottering about today and catching up on a few jobs that didnt get done during the week.0 -

Mumto5 - hope the energy savings come through, do check the unit prices against your usage for savings (they are not always what they seem to be on there).The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -

Morning all. Had a really good night's sleep and am feeling better.
Quiet day planned here. DS is working at a mate's house, DD2 is at her OH's so it is just DH and I. Third washload is in.
Another lovely day here. We've had a lovely Autumn here, and the longer it goes on the more I feel that every single autumnal day needs to be appreciated. Winter will be here before we know it...
My sister has started a just giving page to raise money for the Oncology ward where I receive my chemotherapy. Given that she and my mum organised a McMillan coffee morning that raised over £400, I am overwhelmed by their support.
Hoping everyone has a good day.:jFlylady and proud of it:j0 -

Hmm
Brother has rung and they have been held up, wont see them until later now. (Thanks Frizzle). Both boys and OH have gone out to watch footie/meet up with friends. That leaves me alone with a pile of ironing and a house that needs cleaning.
It just occurred to me that there is no-one I could ring to invite round or meet up with. How pathetic is that?
Well no point in feeling sorry for myself, might as well get the hoover out and get on with it.0 -
Afternoon
Really glad the keys turned up Valli
Hope hope all are well, hugs where needed, it does sound like they are needed as it seems a few are going through the wringer. I hope loads are improved for all soon.
Did a tip run, took a bit from here as well as some from mils, shopping done washing hung out, dd1 visited, sleepover guest fed along with everyone else.
Can't decided if to go for a walk or do some cross stitch this afternoonSPC~12 ot 124

Managed to get a jumper and a sweatshirt for DS3 so that was good, DHs mouthwash which he had ran out of was on offer so stocked up (tried the KM method of not stockpiling toiletries and it really did not work for me, kept running out of stuff and then when I needed to buy it it was not on offer so cost more too).
I have thrown a bag of stuff away from the side shed, had a tidy up out there and bunged the left over spring and lawn feeds I found out there on the lawn, not covered it all but hey I'll get some new stuff in the spring.
Sourdough made, will see if it rises overnight.
Going to feed the mogs and then drop a birthday present to a friend which the jackets cook.
Keep thinking I will make a start on the paperwork but it doesn't seem to be happening!
YL I'm worried about you sweetie, you seem down so much of the time. I know you have a lot on your plate but I feel you have lost your sparkle, can we help in anyway?
CY glad today has been a good one.
Cloudy here, hoping for a spot of rain on my lawn.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
been to the table top sale. Not as good footfall as at a car boot but sold a lot, though at bargain basement prices. But it's gone, which was the point.Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily Dickinson
