    Hope your ankle gets better soon Sunshine, My DD puts a post on FB  everyday showing what they and the DGC have been up to, apart from that I haven't seen or heard from them since the week before the lockdown 😟
    I have just updated my fb photo of a collage of GKs and what they have been doing, I guess we all miss them . 
    Awww sounds good, my DGs had an Easter egg hunt in his back garden yesterday, DD put  photos up on FB, he looked very cute with his little Easter basket 😍 I hope your ankles feeling ok

    Ankle no lasting damage, just bruised a lot. Had a long walk yesterday round near the farm again, watched the horses and riders . Went to see the ducks on the pond  next to the farm , all very pleasant. 
    I had a bad night last night , woke up about midnight and it must have been 3.30 when I finally dropped off again. Woke up at 9 this morning, very groggy. Watched tv until lunchtime , then got dressed and went for a shorter walk today. Have sorted all my wardrobe out today and it's looking much better . 

    Joined Netflix yesterday the cheapest one 5.99 and have been watching Gilmore girls so far. 
    I made two roast dinners yesterday so having the second tonight. 
    I am on leave this week and have got a list of jobs to do, mostly tidying as all decorating etc was done when I moved in. Want to look at finances as well as I have money left over and want to split between savings and debt. 
    Going to sit and enjoy a brew now . 
    Life is an adventure, never stop exploring.

  • I hope you sleep better tonight Sunshine. Your walk by the farm sounds lovely :).

    It's a good idea to join Netflix, they have a lot of good programmes. I hope you enjoy your leave :).

    All change for me , I am cancelling my leave after today and working tomorrow and Thursday. One of the reasons , one of my team has a father who has Corona virus been in hospital and come out now . However he is in a wheelchair and no carers can come for 2 weeks so colleague is having to live with him. Plus I feel more in a routine when I am working , my sleep was terrible again last night. 
    I have done lots of spring cleaning today , more before the end of the day . Walked 6070 steps in the sunshine and it's only 2.30 pm . 
    Lunch first I think before more cleaning .

    Wow on the steps. I don't have a Fitbit anymore but can't imagine it'll be higher than 5000 a day x

    Well done with the steps.....mine is saying 1,700 - tells you what a lazy day I’ve had 😳
    I’m pleased you’re going back to work as it seems a shame to ‘waste’ them when you can’t get out. I’m not pleased about the circumstances though.

    That's great work with the steps. You're certainly on a roll with your walking!😀. I gave my Fitbit to DD some months ago so not sure how many steps I've been doing.

    I'm so sorry to hear about your colleague though.  Hope your sleep pattern gets back to normal.
