Ooh PP, what a lovely list! :j I've quite got out of the habit of making them, forgetting what little things I'm doing all the time out of habit and feeling like I'm not doing *anything* because I'm not doing the big things... I shall go and make a list too, thank you

Love a list Cheery - makes you feel like you're getting somewhere even if you don't tick anything off :rotfl:

Indulgent weekend off to a flying start:D

Friday night was a batch cooked dinner, wine and a bit of snoozing:)
followed by my treat of the week - Saturday morning coffee in bed

The weather continues to be gorgeous and we've had a perfect hill walking day with lots of stops to lie in the sun and take in the views:). Lunch was hm pies using dinner lo as a filling, ys bread sandwiches and hm cake. For the cost of a bit of fuel we've had an absolutely wonderful day:D

Batch cooked veggie lasagne is heating up so an evening of relaxation and a box set beckons once I've had a long bubble bath.
Feeling very content with my lot :)

Happy sunny Saturday to you :)

Sounds like a perfect Saturday.

I can not believe how lovely the weather has been for such a good run of days and weekends.
I'm assuming that this lovely May weather means that the summer holidays are going to be a wash out.

OMG, home made pies? That's fantastic. And another perfect day.

Can't believe the weekend is over:( It's been great though, brilliant weather, loads of activity and fresh air and lovely company. Feeling nicely tired, very content and very fortunate:D

This morning's trail run was great, perfect conditions and feeling the benefits of getting back to a good level fitness. I really enjoyed it:)
After breakfast, a long bubble bath and a bit of reading I swallowed a frog:p and then did a longish bike ride through some lovely countryside.
In terms of chores I've done nowt other than a bit of laundry but I feel really refreshed so it's been worth the sciving!

And a Very Happy Sunday to you too



You must be amazingly fit! And I think it's well worth the effort of bunching jobs and errands together, if it means you can have weekends like this



Sleep well.
