Afternoon Diary,

Havent updated for a couple of days as I had nothing to update! I cannot believe its Wednesday already!

So ive been working this week (from home) as I have been since 23rd March. Did some cleaning today also additionally had a clear out of my makeup. Had some stuff which was probably older than the kids!!!! Anyway thats all in the bin and its now all organised in seperate baskets. I have to say as much as id love to be able to go out and be free to do what I want, im quite enjoying being at home and catching up with the things I never get round to. I know I when we are finally lifted from lockdown, however that may look, I wont look back and be annoyed that I didnt use the time wisely.

Also cleaned the cleaning cupboard under my kitchen sink. I didnt have anything to get rid of as I use everything but its all nice and organised now.

Having to finish my post earlier as DD needs something to do with her paper round! Will update later xx

Glad you’re making the most of lockdown, it would be a shame to waste it. That’s all we can do really, make the most of it and use the time wisely. None of us will want to go back to the workplace.

Glad you guys are ok!

Morning Diary,

So not really sure what everyone thinks of last nights annoucement, things still the same for me and will carry on as I have been. We are waiting for clarification on schools and our HT sent out a message last night saying we are continuing as we have been until we receive guidance.

Had a lovely weekend in the garden, weve had such great weather havent we! I was thankful for it being a bit rubbish yesterday as it meant I didnt feel guilty about lazing about ha!!! Its cold here again today, it actually snowed this morning!!! Back to using the tumble drier much to my disgust!

I have been good with my eating and exercise last week and lost 1kg which I think is around 2lbs. My scales are set to kg and rather than mess around until I get them back to lbs, ive gone with kg!!!!

Right thats about all! Hope all ok xx

I used to do kgs as it made me less focussed on the numbers and I didn’t really have any idea what I weighed as I couldn’t convert it in my head x

Nothing's changed for me at the moment, still got to work from home for the foreseeable future and won't be going anywhere other than take the dog on the park across the road and an occasional trip to the local shops.  I don't have a car so there will be no trips further afield. I'd rather stay safe at home as long as possible. 

A kilo is a bag of sugar approx. 2.2lbs. That's all I do know about kilos though 🤣

Thanks ladies.

Totally agree with you SA, I will be doing much the same xx

Afternoon Diary,

Wow these days are really flying by. So ive done some work today, had a zoom call about returning to work. Just waiting to see what the rota looks like but it seems like it will be reduced office hours. I am fine with going back, I have to do it sometime. Its just a question mark of the girls. DD2 is able to go back as shes year 6 and I suppose DD1 would as im a key worker but I dont know how I feel about them being in school. DD2 fell out with me yesterday as she is desperate to go back and finish year 6 and she said I was being mean not letting her!!! I asked her what she thought school was going to be like as I think she would be in for a shock if she does go back. The unions are up in arms so it might not even happen. 3.5 weeks is a long time in this game.

Been busy cleaning the house to do a video for online viewings of the house! I havent gone overboard but just made sure everythings in its place etc. Will record it later on when everyones finished what theyre doing.

So ive been keeping up with the healthy eating and managed to lose 2kg so far. Really pleased with that. Been calorie counting, drinking loads of water and walking each day. Seems to be working.

Sent ex an email last night to try and sort out the mortgage payments for when the break ends. He basically stopped paying the mortgage (because he said CMS told him it was included in his maintenance) before Corona and luckily we had enough advance for 2 months. Ive done my research and he can't just stop paying for the mortgage he needs to apply for special variation expenses. So basically ive told him that! I will be setting up a standing order for my half and he needs to sort his. Its a joint liability he can't just stop paying it!

Think thats about all really.

Hope all ok xx
