Evening ladies - well that is the end of our challenge. Well done to beanielou and getting there quickly, reasonable losses.Disappointed in myself but we did lose MIL and the lockdown was introduced. 6 week sprint to May 24th 2nd bank holiday next?4 -
Thanks chieveley for the chart. Looks like GTQ is our SOTW so well done to you. Lots of blanks on the chart. Don't beat yourself up chieveley, there is lots going on at the moment. Sorry for your loss.
A 6 week challenge seems at good idea at the moment with so many people disappearing. GTQ came up with a good title a few days ago but can't remember what it was, LOL!
Glad you see your OK maman and it was just the server being a pain yesterday. Hope you sleep better tonight and you'll be bright eyed and busy tailed tomorrow, LOL!
Take care everyone and wrap up warm tomorrow, those temperatures are definitely dropping a long way!

I agree, a six week sprint sounds perfect under the circumstances. Thanks Chieveley for the chart
Were you thinking of my 'Losing on Lockdown' suggestion, Denise?Is anyone comfortable setting up the thread? I can try but I don't know what I'm doing...

Evening all,
OH and I are about 80% recovered from our COVID19, just a tickly cough and tiredness remaining. With the tiredness has been erratic eating. For several days we had no appetite, and were snacking on toast or cereal. I still have no sense of smell or taste, but my appetite has returnedwhich is probably a bad thing. Meals have been anything I can shove in the oven and 30 mins later dinner is served, so nothing good particularly, and also making do with whatever food is in the freezer/cupboards, as both OH and I are likely to be contagious with our coughs, so not going near a supermarket any time soon. Once we are feeling more back to 100% I will begin to focus on SW plan meals more, but for the time-being we are just grateful to be feeling better, and to have fared as well as we did with the virus. Definitely not been a fun journey.
Hope everyone else is keeping well, and stay in, stay safe.One day the clocks will stop, and time won't mean a thing
