    Morning everyone

    ally make sure u look after the Ferrari!
    CLF there is something so tempting about a garden centre. Hoping u r feeling happier today. Mood swings are just the worst, I have flat days but not very often, but they just make u feel even more miserable. Enjoy that garden!

    Off to my mum's later to take fish and chips in. Have been driving round with a hydrangea in the boot for her, if I had brought it into the house one of the cats would have attacked the flowers. It's only one of the cats that has a problem with plants and flowers. Got gifted a lovely big palm once, that didn't last long and DD never buys me flowers as we had to keep them in the downstairs toilet from said cat ripping the heads off.
    Nothing much else planned today. A report I should have done days ago still hasn't been done so I'm planning a relaxing evening. If I put my energies into it should take a hour tops.
    Will spend a bit of time with my mum this afternoon, she is going to help me plan operation living room so that I can put budget plans in place and start buying things gradually and continue the clutterfest.
    Want to try and put a couple more things on eb@y
    Run the Hoover quickly and relax the rest of the day.
    Have a great day everyone x

    Morning all :)
    Been to a market / flea market we often go to on Sundays. Bought a few things to sell on, plus some cheap food bits from the market bit. Apart from that, I spent the princely sum of 20p on a small washing up bowl for the camper van, and another 20p on a rusty saucepan full of sea shells, which little GD will love sorting and washing tomorrow :rotfl:

    Nice Mothers Day present from DD2 yesterday when they came round to pick up a piece of furniture we gifted them :)

    Apart from that:
    Walked dog
    Washing on line, hope it will dry!
    Another load to put in machine
    Need to clean the items I bought for sale, and price some of them up for my unit tomorrow or Tuesday
    Ought to finish stocktaking - only the items in the garage to go!
    Making shepherds pie with sweet potato mash topping for dinner, invited brother, as I am not sure he has much money for food till he gets paid next Friday :( At least he will be going home afterwards :T
    Need to do a small shop at Lidls - hope OH will go, as there isn't anything very complicated on the list :rotfl:

    Hope everyone is having a nice day :)

    Bit of batch cooking to do:

    Chicken and rice soup

    Spicy beef and lentil soup

    Some sort of pastry-sausage thing for dinner.

    My freelancer has overwritten all of my data directly onto my master project.

    Good feeling gone.

    External voice: ok, well we can salvage some of it... we'll just re-do it.

    Cheers Ally. Unfortunately, this particular software only supports "roll back to last save", but it was also overwritten and turned off overnight.

    oh CLF, what a pain! Not what you need when already not feeling great. On Thur/Fri nothing was actually wrong with me, I just didn't have any "get up and go" Felt really flat and low. I find days like this really tough to pull myself out of.

    Dawn, I hope you and dh are enjoying having your house back to yourselves!



    I hope you're feeling brighter today :)
