Hmm was aspirational this morning, collapsed on couch today, am worried about ds operation on Friday and my own ankle and work as I didn't do cover work today for pretty much the first time since September.

Morning all :hello:
Ditty hope today is better.
I’m at an al day appointment, so opportunities are limited but it also means I won’t spend anything as parking is free and they provide lunch :j but I will also:
Other meals from stores
Washing on airer after quick wash
Check banking, salary showing as pending for tomorrow :j
Double check my meal plan for the week to use up freezer stuff
Use something out of freezer I want to defrost for tea
TT any remaining cash in account at the end of the day before I’m paid
Have a good day all. Purps.0 -
Morning Purps and all who follow
Todays list
* ys bread used as part of the kids egg/toast for breakfast ✅
* cheap but healthy porridge for me in a bit ✅
* check banking/update spreadsheet ✅ Pay day money shuffle done
* see if I have a couple of suitable birthday cards in my stash (from yesterdays list) ✅
* make spag bol (from yesterdays list) ✅
* sew up little hole in ds1s school trousers (from yesterdays list)
* look for a receipt in my file, as dh might want to put a claim in (from yesterdays list)
* make families lunches for tomorrow
* update my food diary - I'm trying to get this weight shifting the right way for a change as my clothes are feeling a little too snug ✅
* wash a load on the quick 30 degree wash and hang on the heated airer ✅
That's enough to be starting with.
Take care all.

Thanks CLF and PF, well yes a good finish to yesterday and start to today. Last night I spent 4 hours sorting things and tidying up the house including both ds rooms and mine. I got some charity stuff in the car and threw out a wad of old bank and credit card statements. Made a salad this morning and on my way!
Then going a hair too quickly I nicked a tyre on the same roundabout as before. Back to the tyre shop and I'm quite sure it is shot, but am waiting to get price. Me and cars.
I feel rested after yesterday, but just don't know how I so completely run out of energy and motivation.Isa help to buy: 1000/3000 33%
