Here's my 1 - 5 for today. Last day of all three children together and they recreated a school photograph from 22 years ago. DD2 and her dad are dropping DD1 and her friend in Edinburgh (she flies back on Sunday) then they're off to Liverpool. So just me, DS, his cat and my 2 dogs. Sooooo lovely to see them. Fingers crossed I get over to NL soon.MrsSD declutter medals 2023 🏅🏅🏅⭐⭐ 2025

That's a good photo recreation, DD. Bigger son and I have done some with him posing as a famous painting (the swarthy Man with a Pearl Earring was good) but we haven't done one for a while.
Pleasures for today (Thursday)
1) Not a bad sleep.
2) Smaller son went to college. 2 days this week!
3) I went to Lidl then picked smaller son up.
4) Hens OK.
5) Spent about 2 hours weeding and tidying the gardens.
6) House quite tidy and did a load of washing.
7) Made a pizza for tea (yesterday's tomato sauce).
8) Did the Virtual Pub Quiz.10 -
Fantastic photo DD.
1. Had a lovely compliment from a patient at work. It doesn't happen too often. It makes the rest of the day breakeven having to stay late due to people arriving very late.
2. Free lunch - always good.
3. Went to the pub for a drink. The first time in ages. It's generally quite quiet there and it was so felt very safe.
4. Cooked fish for tea. It was good.
5. Text messages with a f friend.9 -
Aw, fantastic photo DD.
For yesterday,
Finally stopped procrastinating and caught up with household chores including tackling my nemesis, the ensuite shower, all done now.
Weather wise it was a great day for drying so the WM had a good workout too.
Run a few errands in the afternoon inc trip to the post office to renew driving license and dropped a couple of bags off at CS.
Tea was a mushroom and lentil bake.
Caught up on Paul & Bob’s fishing adventures then it was a body in the library with AC10 -

Love Christie SSue and yes, reread them over and over. Funnily enough I couldn’t get on with the Osman book, almost too many twists for the sake of it maybe? Will give the next one a go just to see.
Ooh, hello there Admiral, it’s a promotion is it……8 -
1 An unintentional lay in
2 I took DH over to Physio while he was there
3 I found a coffee shop, and sat outside with a chocolate and set to writing for a half hour.
