I don’t know Watty, if I’d not been asked to have it last year I wouldn’t why it’s a no this year, just cut backs maybe, that’s what the receptionist alluded to anyway 🤷♀️
Hospital blood check today, and they rebooked me from an appointment as if I’d missed one Tuesday , very odd as they wrote Friday in my appointment book and I was away Tuesday.so I’ve got a “naughty” slot as if I missed it or requested an extra appointment which is later at end of clinic and thus very hard to drive to as the car park I’d full at about 8.30 am 😩 so I’m debating trying or taking two buses each way 🤔 might ring dad as he often goes into a property he has round the corner there to do stuff, so I might get a lift one way maybe…
This weekend dh is working and out drinking Saturday with his ex work colleagues, I’ve no idea if my brother is going. Things have been polite and they have seen each other three times now but it’s still very awkward to say the least. Anyway I’ve decided to paint the box room to keep myself busy, choices are the leftover cream from the front bedroom or white which I think I might go for. I’ve got some sale thermal curtains from next on order for £21 but I have a return voucher that more than covers it that I’ve had a while so no real spend! I did however buy a ceiling light shade for £4.99 yesterday, as well as breakfast as it’s my turn this week so a £14.98 spend so a new total of £504.97 /£1000 - I’ve hit the half way mark early!Ds2 had dinner here again last night, third time cooking this week which is lovely for me, dil is working lates so we have been going to the cinema together and he goes past my house on the way home so invites himself to dinner 😆 last night I did frozen “emergency dinner” chicken in bread crumbs, homemade frozen roast potatoes and a mix of fresh and frozen veg. Not expecting him again this week, but tonight I might do a lentil dhal and homemade Nan as I’ve not done that for ages and can do a big batch and freeze. Dh can have last nights diner reheated as he weirdly wasn’t hungry.MFW 67 - Finally mortgage free! 💙😁3
