    Morning folks

    Sorry for not posting yesterday. I was feeling so tired and grotty with this cold that I didn't go to work and holed up at home. I'm feeling a bit better in myself today and the cold seems to have entered the cough, tight chest and snot monster stage that OH experienced. Still, it's a lovely day here and I'm going to make sure that we go up to the allotment for an hour or so. We were due to get a massive manure delivery today but I put them off til next week.

    Today's plans:
    :cookie: B/L/D from stores- done
    :cookie: Check PMP - done
    :cookie: Reconcile budget sheet. - done. Looks a bit better than I expected. Also check that OH is up to date with his invoices. - done. He is.
    :cookie: Spend 10 mins or so in the utlity room prepping for painting- done
    :cookie: Spend 10 mins whipping a duster round the kitchen to dust all the non-worktop type surfaces - done
    :cookie: Check how much Christmas money I have left - done
    :cookie: Go to allotment, mark out plot boundary and spend a little bit of time clearing the back section. - done. I feel a bit better for getting out in the fresh air. I also christened my new hedge shears by having a go at the path at the back of the house when I got home. 
    :cookie: Plant peas indoors instead of at allotment as soil not delivered today
    :cookie: Pick up potting compost from B&M. Alternatively, might just bring a bucket of soil back from the allotment! 
    :cookie: Crochet- done

    Have a good one all

    DNMS enjoy your unexpected day at home. Glad you’d sound so positive about your mood too. 

    My list today:
    opticians appointment - no charge today as I have a monthly plan 
    free relaxing therapy appointment this afternoon
    small shop as we now have visitors 3 days on the trot! And I don’t want to have to pop out to eat with any of them. 
    Check banking, update budget
    mince out of freezer for tea
    some
    knitting and relaxation 
    catch up with pal later over a cuppa

    have a good day all. Purps. 
  • Morning folks!

    @determined_new_ms - good to hear you sounding so chipper!

    Friday is mil day so can't get much done. On the plus side, she's decided to come here so I have a little more time. I wanted to go up to the allotment and have a little bonfire but I didn't get up early enough and OH doesn't get up until about 11 at least. It's a real shame as I'm missing out on some lovely weather. I might try a little potter in the garden instead. I'm feeling a bit off with my vertigo due to the cold and woke up with a horrible sinus headache at 5.30 anyway :neutral:

    Today's list:
    :cookie: B/L/D from stores
    :cookie: Mooch in the garden
    :cookie: Sulk a bit
    :cookie: Crochet
    :cookie: Hopefully an early night as OH is gigging

    Have a good one all
