4lts of milk has gone up almost 30% since the new year. Hardly anything has gone up by less than 10%. I'd love to know what people are buying that has only gone up by 7.5%. I suppose it is possible that they are only dealing with very expensive shops which have a big enough profit margin or all the supermarkets are doing a Prince Louis to us which seems unlikey..

SunAddict, I'm curious to know if you have more hours in your day than us mere mortals? You seem to achieve so much!Living room looks lovely - I've always wanted a window seat where I imagine that I would sit and read whilst sipping tea.4

Tonight’s dinner is a stir fry made with all the veg in the fridge that needed using up. Mr M delivery for tomorrow cut down to what is actually needed and not what’s on offer that there isn’t space for in my freezer/cupboard or what I might need but not sure about yet but will get it just in case. This week’s meal plan will be all about what’s already in stock.There’s me trying to cut down on electricity usage while there’s Mr SA in the garden leaving both the bedroom and living room TVs on, no one watching them 😖 I’ve had a shower tonight rather than a bath but only because it’s too hot for baths.Before the exercise class did a quick clean of the living room using a TOMM cleaning podcast as motivation.Step count now just over 20,000.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)3

Forgot to say had a card from Royal Mail through the door when I got home from work, despite Mr SA being in! It transpires it was the magic trousers I only ordered Saturday so that was super quick! Mr SA is going to pick them up tomorrow from the local depot. During the pandemic they left parcels behind the bin, now they’re back to this card through the door business 😕I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)3
