I also love the flowers.

Am a summer person,  mainly because I am always very cold and sadly felt I missed much of the summer so am working out how to embrace this season now (which will involve more layers!)

Thanks @skint_spice, @beanielou, @Watty1 😊 💐 
Yes, the drop in the light brings a lot of people down @Merlin's_Beard and I think our immune systems decline with it too 🤷‍♀️
I’m now seeing you swooshing about in stylish hats and elegantly draped shawls @Watty1 😊

Woke feeling bunged up and very tired this morning. Weather has been wet (lightly this morning, heavily since lunchtime) all day … 

I have however managed to:
- prep for the PC eating tomorrow. It’s gonna be a looong one … sigh … The only good thing is that Chair has an audition afterwards so we have to be done by 8.30pm at the latest 😉

- tried to make sense of the income and expenditure sheet prepared by the clerk versus the PC bank account and I can’t. Not sure if it’s a timing thing (transactions in process) or me not understanding (but I run my budget and I did do a small dose of double entry bookkeeping eons ago when I did a HNC in Bus studies and finance … 🤷‍♀️🤔) or whether the clerk is fundamentally incapable of explaining the financial transactions we have? Even the numbers she shared for the bank reconciliation don’t add up! 🙄😳 …. Double sigh … Detailed feedback sent to Clerk and suggestions on how to make it all clearer (which she will ignore as usual), cc’ing Chair, which led to an email chain back and forth between myself and Chair on how to tackle this …

- Done our financial updates - I had no issues there 😉. Started the Christmas present tracker for this year as I am starting to store away things for people 😊 Had a look at the data for actual OPs this year versus what I forecast - I’m significantly down on surveys and cashback and the Wayleave payment got used for topping up the house EF instead of an OP, but I am making up the gap with the extra monthly OP I have set up. I am starting to think about next year’s forecast for OPs …

- Finished drying and folding all the washing so the conservatory is completely clear from Mr KK coming back from the sale.

- Extracted all the unwanted vegan cookbooks from the bookcase in the living room along with various other things, which made space for my new vegetarian cookbooks to go on the bookcase and off the floor 😊👏 I have 27 books ready to possibly sell - would be lovely if I could get a half decent amount back for them … 🤞

- Braved the rain just now to empty the veg peeling bucket, open the gates for Mr KK and move some of the cleared magazines to the recycling bin. Came back in with properly wet legs … 🙄😂

Time for a brew ☕️ 😊

@KajiKita I know you no longer like being on the PC, but planning to munch them is a bit harsh I fear 

PS Love the pic of the cut flowers.
