Hey SA XX
Sending you love and hoping Mr SA is ok. I hope today is a better day,
Take care and make sure you have quiet G and T at some point - any time after 10 is fine XXXNevertheless she persisted.8 -
Morning (just) folks
Mr SA has been fine overnight and seems ok so far today, he's mowed the lawn.
Did day 3 week 7 of C25K at 6.30am, then took the dog on the park before starting work. It's rather windy here today. Bit quiet work-wise but a lot of people are off today. Looking forward to the long weekend. Will need to go to the chemists for Mr SA's prescription either today or tomorrow, I hate going there they are so painfully slow. Tried to get a delivery via Boots but the request was rejected, I suppose you have to let the doctors know first.
Finances are all up to date, cc is cleared. Can't believe it's payday again next Friday, seems to be coming round fast.
Hope everyone has a good day.

After work today went to the chemists to pick up Mr SA’s prescription, no queue walked straight in. Got home no cream for his fungal infection he gets a lot (thank you chemo). Rang them up - sorry it’s in the fridge forgot to give it to you. So had to go back again, unfortunately a queue this tine 😩 This is why I would like it to be delivered. Alarmed at the sheer amount of people out with hordes of children on bikes/scooters making it very difficult to social distance on the pavement. This is why I like to do my doings first thing.
In other news the wind has wreaked havoc on the garden, plants blown over and leaves everywhere 😩 Brilliant drying day though 👍
Aside from that Mr SA is ok today no brain issues, no being sick or sight loss. Hopefully will stay that way 🙏I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)7 -
Forgot to say I was offered an online delivery slot from Iceland. Could do with a few bits and bobs from there so have balanced out my Mr M order with it. Not had an online delivery from them before so will see how it goes, coming on Sunday.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)6

Glad he's had a good day! Boo to having to go back to the chemist though.
I can quite understand you wanting to reduce visits.
