Morning all,
I am keeping everything crossed for your DS YL and for you Round xxI was so exhausted last night, DD had a lovely day but was very very emotional in the evening. I have heard hormones can start to swirl in girls as young as 8, I know she was very tired and has really missed school so it could be an accumulation of everything, but I am a bit concerned about her. I hope your grandpink is ok Piggers xx
WM is on, DW has been emptied, I am listening to a fascinating interview with Lily Cole. I need to nip to Lidl for washing powder today, will take DD into B&M as well to look around. Both kids sleeping at my friends on Thursday, I'm planning my meal/TV viewing/pampering already!Last £75 paid off my CC this morning and letter just written to close the account 😉, my frugality in recent weeks has paid off. Have lovely Sundays all xx9 -
Morning xx
Fingers crossed for your DS YL xx
Hugs to pigger's grandpink and asb's DD xx It's difficult enough as an adult to make sense of this crazy 2020 world! You support them and we'll support you in any way that we can xx
asb - RIP CC and well done you xx
Narc0 - maybe both WWs are hiding somewhere cool - I've not seen either of them this weekend.
Ladies - I slept! Real proper all night slept. Approx 11pm to 6 am slept. And .... then I went to the loo, got back into bed and slept!!!! til 8.30 am. Bliss. Still had a themed dream - lots of faces from the past joining me ... I really need to give this some quiet time and work out what my sub-conscious is trying to tell me. But sleep ahhhhhh. Love it.
I've made my bed.
Round 1 = (as usual)

WUDUPA
Have a good day xx Take care of yourselves

Round, glad you finally got some good sleep, I had weird dreams as well, for what ever reason some of the lower down royal family came to stay with me and brought their horses with them!!! madnessJust been for a walk around a local car boot to here, 7 mins walk from the house, seems very well arranged, folk walking round away from each other, so I think it may be the place for me to carry on car booting and getting rid of the junk items of interest.Just listed old bathroom stuff on freecycle and surprisingly some one wants some of it, if they do turn up to collect, that is less stuff to go into the skip, so more room for all the rubble / old tiles / other stuff etc step toe's yard will be no more after this coming week..............................Breast Cancer Now 100 miles October 2022 100 / 100miles

Good morning!
I have been out for a run! It is already getting hot. WM is now on, and sausages in the oven for my breakfast. I am sitting on the patio in the sun with my 1st cuppa of the day 😊
I need to shower, but I am undecided about going to the allotment (I always get really dirty knees!) We are meeting up with DHs family this afternoon at a country park. It will be the 1st we have seen BiL & SiL and the kids since mid march. SiL made a comment to DD1 about how they were the outcasts as we hadn't been in touch! DH texts his bro regularly, but he rarely replies!! 😡 This should be fun!
Yesterday I spent too long at the shops, but did manage to buy 3 tops and some linen trousers, along with a new toilet seat & towel for the utility room, and the week's shopping. I spent a couple of hours at the allotment - so much to do there!
Have a good day everyone!7 -
I have two eBay items to post today, neither of them raised much but it's something I am not using gone and I shall let it build up in my PayPal. I also need to post a couple of cards so 2 birds.
Goldfinch was there again later. Identifying birds is not my strongpoint so I was thrilled I got it right first time and thrilled to see it back. I showed it DD. Having said that I've been watching the swifts feeding.
Suppose I ought to get up....

Had a lovely walk with DH and the dogs and picked up some local honey. Just having a cuppa and then I'll cut the grass.Spend less now, work less later.8

Everything crossed for your DS, YL
I cut my Sunday morning visit to the allotment short, as a couple of families turned up with visitors and decided that it was ok to wander everywhere with no SD. I packed up and came home.DH has a long weekend booked off to fix the garage roof - so how come it is nearly Sunday afternoon and he “isn’t sure it is worth starting now” 😡. Yes, I am grumpy today!
This afternoon is booked out to taxi DD into small town and pick her up later. She is meeting a friend who she hasn’t seen since March, as their family has been shielding.
Bread is prepped to go into the oven later when it is on for the roast chicken. 1 load of washing on the line, and I think that is it.
Tomorrow we are off to the big city for a hospital appointment for DD. I had hoped they would postpone / do it by phone, but they are insisting that she goes in person.7 -
DD1 messaged, she said grandpink is all sparkly and happy and chatty today and more her usual self.. she still has her poorly tummy but is much happier.. I suggested she brings her at least once a week so we can fill her sunshine cup.
OH dangling out washing, half filled a recycle bin and got out the girls birthday presets to wrap.. thats pretty organised for my useless self!
