I stand corrected. Builders are allowed to continue working as long as they practice social distancing. My bad.

Good luck Kaz. Morning all, another pleasant one.
Dailies are done, dogs are walked and I've prepped some yoghurt. Need to sort dog food next and do some flying. Littleydog isn't feeling well this morning and is very needy and winey.
Have a great day finding your new normal flyers.Spend less now, work less later.10 -

Oh Kaz, I’m so pleased for you!
Another beautiful day here. DH is working in the DR, DD will continue to confine herself to her room. Both are at risk in their own ways. I need to make a list to ensure that the day doesn’t disappear. I’m unsure whether walking the 5 minutes to the allotment and working up there for a couple of hours counts as exercise under the new rules.
DH has just started the milk that is dated 3 weeks time, rather the one dated next week. We only have the 2 bottles in the fridge, so not difficult. And he has huffed off when i mentioned it. It will be the little things.....
DW emptied. Darn it - I’ve forgotten to turn on the wm. Back later, hugs all round.10 -
Good luck Kaz, hopefully you'll be in your new house by this evening 🙂
Just about to put a load of washing on the line and another in the machine.
Not sure if I'll get my veg box delivery today, although there's no veg only fruit. Thankfully we have a fair bit of veg from previous boxes 🙂
I have written an isolation list so hopefully I can do some bits on it over the 12 weeks. List to follow 🙂Mortgage Free as of 20.9.17Declutter challenge 2023, 2024 🏅 🏅⭐️⭐️

Handles and switches disinfected. I'm not writing a Coronavirus list. For me, this staying in lark is not that different from normal as I wfh anyway, and I'd be disappointed at the end of the virus if I hadn't crossed everything off. So I'll just plod along.Spend less now, work less later.12

Good morning 😁
I was awake early this morning, but haven't done much!
I am dressed (in gardening scruffs) and I have had breakfast. I need to make a list..... I am unsure about going to the allotment. I have a pumpkin in the shed down there, and potatoes that need planting. I also have compost to take down there & cardboard. I am totally isolated, and it would be exercise. Michael Gove seemed to think it is ok on the news, so I may go today and see what tomorrow brings (I seem to have talked myself into it!)
List:
Fill a trug with compost
Get cardboard from shed
Lay cardboard & compost
Plant potatoes - bring some home to plant in pots
Plant lupin (before it dies!)
General tidying/weeding/pottering
Bring back pumpkin
I think I will delegate emptying the DW to DS & DD2 who are at home. They plan to spend the day watching D!$ney+ !!!
Thanks for the thoughts re DD1 (sorry, I said DD2 - always call them by the wrong name first 😂😂) moving. It looks like it may still go ahead, but nothing is certain yet 🤞
Have a good day everyone x11 -
Good luck with the move Kaz! I'm so pleased for you10

I cannot tell a lie. I have fluttered:
made my bed
got washed and dressed
fed the birds
put out the recycling
filled the bird bath
sorted the washing in to loads
set WM swishing with towels and tea towels
cleared the airer and put it away.
It's a fine line balancing spoons and distracting anxiety. I need to start writing things down. Recurring panic: what will we do if we run out of milk (quite likely)? Ermm - eat toast (we have bread) instead of cereal and drink black coffee. I can be doing without a case of the 'what ifs' right now, thank you!!!
