    Those figures are looking fantastic. 
    I think your new grandchild is definitely comfortable and staying put for the time being. He has probably heard about the world and things it is better to stay inside! 

    Shame that you aren't in Benidorm, hopefully you will get there later in the year. 

    I think your colleague's notice might have been because of the way she is and how she has managed. If they are setting you up to work from home then maybe that is a good sign that they are extending it? It's hard to predict without knowing. x

    Lots of snow falling this morning , my dad has phoned me to say he has fallen outside the paper shop but is ok, apart from a bruised hand and sore knee . 
    It's going to be a long day I think . 😂. 
    My DS starts his Covid vaccine volunteering tomorrow, very proud of him for doing this , 6 hour shift he has every Sunday . 
    No idea what to do with myself as all cleaning done , may do the ironing . As I said a long day in front of me .

    Today I have the GKs to give mum a rest as dad is working for a few hours . They will be going home in the next hour and I will come back and get ready for the working week. When they come here I try to keep them off tablets and they haven't asked for them today so all good. 
    My dad is full of bruises this morning but still went to the paper shop again 😂. I did a car visit with the GKs to see them . 
    No idea what the rest of the week entails , it all depends on circumstances ! 
    Enjoy the rest of Sunday's.
