    Morning happy Sunday. Lovely sunny start to the day.

    It will be NSD 10/12 today. 

    Plans for today:
    Meal plan 
    Finalise Mr M order for Tuesday
    Take the dog for a ball run on the park
    Official litter pick on the park at 11am, will need my hi viz jacket 😆
    Gardening
    Clean the whole house
    Finish my book
    Paint my toe nails 
    Spanish learning 

    Tonight’s dinner is salmon with steamed veg and Cornish new potatoes. Mr SA is having pork steak. Leftover pizza for lunch. 

    Right, time to get cracking on that list…

    I do wish that just one day you'd have a lie in and trawl the internet with several coffees :)

    You put the rest of us to shame, you really do SA

    I was actually trawling the internet in bed this morning albeit extremely early as the sun woke me up 😆

    I did manage a short time in the hanging chair with my book 😎 Hopefully will get some time later too. 

    I’m looking for a narrow unit with drawers, the same width/height as a CD storage tower, if anyone spots them anywhere please let me know. I want something that will fit next to my dressing table to store makeup/perfume. I’ve seen them in Sainsburys but not high enough. When we had the bedroom remodelled I had to get a small dressing table to fit in the alcove but it’s not big enough to store all my bits and bobs. This wasn’t a problem during the pandemic when I hardly used make up but now I’m back in the office I need somewhere accessible to store it. I’ve tried Amazon, eBay, Argos but haven’t seen anything suitable.

    SA, a nearby neighbour has her hanging chair in their porch, and it looks really inviting, although I haven't seen anyone sitting in it mostly because I see it early in the morning whilst dog-walking.
    What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?
