No news yet. Knowing DS he’ll have got it wrapped round his neck when they’re due, he isn’t the most reliable source of information.Today has been ok. Took the dog on the park this morning then for a walk round the block at lunchtime. Did just over 5k on the treadmill after work.Mr SA went down to the local shops and was shocked at the amount of shops closed and people wearing masks. Bear in mind he hasn’t left the house since before lockdown.Been a miserable day weather wise. Rain, grey skies, bit of sun around lunchtime but short lived.Another NSD in the bag ✅I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)8

Morning all 😎
The weather is dire here at the moment, torrential rain, luckily managed to miss it when I popped out to Mr T Express early on. Hopefully it will clear up to enable me to take the dog out at some point.
Felt a bit meh so did the Joe Wicks workout, feel much better now 😁
We watched After Life on Netflix last night, it's sad and funny at the same time, even Mr SA enjoyed it. Makes a change from the endless hospital programmes he makes us watch.
Fly Lady is super easy today as it's kids room - no chance of me venturing into DD's room so I'll just give the spare room a quick once over. Talking of DD she brought home a massive tray of cream cakes from work last night (Mr M)/ Trying my best not to be tempted but Mr SA is hanging his nose over them - she hasn't even said we can take one yet 🤣

The weather cleared up enough at lunchtime to enable me to take the dog on the park, wish I hadn't bothered because she saw a big dog and ran off. Cue me chasing around the park after her, shouting at her to stop, then she ran up a really steep bank, had to run up it after her and OMG I thought my heart was going to burst out of my chest 😓 Eventually caught her. On the plus side at least we both got a good run 🤣 All the C25K, Insanity classes and Joe's PE haven't gone to waste after all.
The past couple of weeks I've been trying hard to get down my freezer contents and been doing well, quite proud of my tidy drawers. DD has just had an Asda delivery and filled it back up again 😒
Anyway that's Thursday done.

Rang DS to ask about DGD’s results and they won’t get them until they go back to hospital on Monday. DIL spoke to the GP and she said as far as she can see from the report she got back, nothing of concern has been found, although she could only see part of the report. So fingers crossed 🤞🙏I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)7

Yes fingers crossed though the doctor sounded positive.
Did Mr SA get to eat the cakes?😀
