This made me :rotfl::rotfl: it’s just not a bizarre sight for me. My OH has no legs below the thighs. So it’s the norm to see his legs on the sofa each night, often I find a cat curled up in the top of the trousers as it’s warmAs a dear MSE friend says “keep plodding” or

Friday eve again
The tiredness hit me yesterday big time. I felt weird yesterday afternoon, I couldn't think straight and kept imagining things, very surreal. Anyway I'm fine today thankfully.
Did Pilates yesterday and have been running on the treadmill today. AFD yesterday but have a glass of wine tonight
DGD has been poorly all week and even ended up in A&E - she kept being sick and started to become dehydrated. Thankfully she's fine now. I remember it only too well how kids can be really poorly one minute and fine the next. She started school in September and is catching all the bugs bless her.
Looking forward to a quiet weekend, got WW hairdressers on Saturday but nothing else planned.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)0 -

I'm glad you're feeling less tired now. I'm also glad DGD is on the mend, that must have been a worry!
You're doing well on the exercise front as always.
