Have had a busy morning at work catching up but this afternoon should be a bit quieter. Made a carrot, swede and red lentil soup for lunch, 4 portions will see me through until Friday. Put it all in the soup maker and took the dog on the park for a good run, we were the only ones there which was good. Got back and my nice hot soup was ready, lovely. Have taken a portion of homemade bean and lentil chilli out of the freezer so will have that tonight with some rice.
The latest instalment in the airer saga is that the delivery company have been in touch to say they are going to interview the delivery driver and ask him why the house number had been changed and what has happened to the parcel. Watch this space.

That’s rubbish service with the airier. It’s not your fault. Somebody needs to sort you an airier out.January spends - £587.585

Ended up being NSD 2 of January today, enough bread left until Mr M delivery arrives tomorrow. Managed to book in online deliveries for the next 3 weeks before they disappear now we’re back in lockdown. Very annoyed that once again the minority have ruined it for the majority, no doubt these idiots will still continue to break the rules 🤬

I do need to look at placing another order for some meat though. The outside freezer is looking a bit depleted in some departments.7 -
Morning all, not so sure it's such a happy Tuesday now we're back in lockdown but we have to do what we have to do. Onwards and upwards.
It was pretty obvious what was going to happen so I bagged the slots yesterday lunchtime. No doubt back to the days of virtual queuing again just to make an amendment to the order, hey ho.
Mr SA woke me up at 5am shining a torch in the bedroom looking for the TV remote control! When I'm physically in the office I'm normally up at this time because I have the leave the house at 6.15 but one of the pleasures of WFH is I don't get up until 6am. I wouldn't mind but he's fast asleep again now.
Today's exercise on my 28 day HIIT challenge chart is 30 minutes active recovery meaning walk, swim or cycle. As I'm aiming for 14,000 steps anyway today I might spend 30 minutes on my exercise bike. Cleaning today is the bathroom. Tonight's dinner is Mediterranean Cod (mainly to use up half a mozzarella ball), doing something involving chicken for Mr SA.
Mr M delivery coming this afternoon. Normally have an early morning slot but DD has suggested that this is why a lot of things are out of stock because shelves haven't been replenished/deliveries not arrived. She's been helping out with picking and packing at her store and seems to think she knows what she's talking about. We shall see if her theory is correct.

The airer arrived this lunchtime, what on earth has been going on? I mentioned what had happened to the delivery bloke who said he'd been off last week and this was his first lot of deliveries, my parcel was just on the van. How bizarre 😕 Anyway it's set up and being tested out. It holds a full load of washing so we'll see how long it takes to dry.
Mr M delivery coming later, loads of subs but they are all sensible like for like things so no complaints. Only one item missing, not the end of the world can pick up later in the week.
Took the dog on the park before lunch so she's had a good run. Lovely sunny day here today so it was very pleasant. Might take her again after work if it's still light.
