I hate the dark milann, I can’t breathe if it’s too dark, I know it sounds weird. I can sleep through anything- lights, music, whatever 😆 When I was a youngster I used to sleep with a lamp on plus the radio on, used to drive my mum nuts.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)6

Have planted up lots of pots and a hanging basket today. Also done lots of gardening/tidying up over 22,000 steps done walking up and down the garden. Ordered the bamboo screening for the fence, should be here Thursday. Have a nice white patch where my FitBit was from being outside all day 🤣

Love the colour scheme for your bedroom. Very cheery.
Need to get out in our garden at some point this week. We put some feed on the grass last week and it has gone mad with all the rain we have had recently. It is starting to go very green again though which is great. We thought it was a bit beyond help and we would have to dig it up and start again on the front!!
Sorry to hear about your cousins daughter. Sending the flowers is a lovely gesture which I'm sure will be much appreciated.8 -
Happy June☀️Have been for my morning walk, it was so lovely to be out in the sunshine. Almost 8,000 steps clocked up to start the day. On a mission this month to get back to my exercise routine as it’s fallen a bit by the wayside while we’ve had workmen here. Still been doing the walking but not the workouts. Also back to logging my food on the WW app.Today will be NSD1 of June. Managed 11 last month, hoping to beat that score although there are still some things to buy for the bedroom. The flooring should be fitted this week so we can move the bed back upstairs thank goodness. It’s made the dog incredibly lazy, she’s done nothing but lounge about on it. Bedroom furniture is being delivered next week so we’ll be able to start getting ship shape.Lentil lasagne with salad for tonight’s dinner. Defrosting a portion of soup for lunch.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)7

Well done on the eleven NSDs!
Do take care getting all the new stuff up the stairs. Hopefully the delivery people will do that for you.I think a bit of sunshine is good for frugal living. (Cranky40)

You don't ever get over losing one of your children,I lost my first daughter and although I've learned to live with it I will never be the same. My mum has been almost destroyed by losing my sister when she was 49 and I don't think she will ever recover 😟 like I say you learn to live with it but it's a life changing event that effects you for the rest of your life 😟Original Debt Owed Jan 18 = £17,630 Paid To Date = £6,510 Owed = £11,12011
