What a lovely day I have had , the joy on people's faces when I dropped off their goody bags . I got offered a massage by one old gent In return for bringing his bag, I politely declined . Had my hair done by my lovely niece, so I look slightly presentable again. Lost another 4lb in the last 3 weeks , I don't have scales so have to weigh myself, so have to wait to go on my mums .DGD is staying tomorrow night , we will see she may change her mind by tomorrow.It is so cold outside ❄️❄️❄️☃️☃️.Life is an adventure, never stop exploring.4

Day was busy , no snow here ,just a bit of rain later in the afternoon, but very cold. Took dad shopping , then mum and I popped to the shops and we got my dad a present , it was very local and not a lot of people about.My parents have decided to cash in their premium bonds as they don't want to do the online service and after March you have to register online. I filled the forms in for them and that got posted today.I have DGD tonight , we have played barbies ( her mums from when she was young ) , watched The Grinch and then read some stories . I am hoping she is now asleep , need to go and check .DGS got a homework superstar certificate for his Christmas tree card , so he was pleased with himself.Tomorrow I am hoping to get my car cleaned inside and out . Then I have the beauticians at lunchtime . Cleaning in the afternoon , so a busy day .Life is an adventure, never stop exploring.3

Well done to DGS 👏 Your parents will probably be better off putting their premium bond money into savings. Interest rates rubbish at the moment but anything better than nothing.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)3
