I decided no procrastination today , I can easily sit there for a couple of hours on Saturday morning not doing much. Anyway I have cleaned my flat, done a load of washing and walked for 3 miles . I will probably do another short walk later . My DGS is doing a doorstep drop off of Mother's Day presents . It was his birthday yesterday and we had GF pizza on a bench in the nearby park to celebrate.I collected the GKs from school as well , but just dropped them off at home .This afternoon I am going to do some reading and not much else .Life is an adventure, never stop exploring.2
