Back from a lovely short break , never ever want to come home. Even my car saga doesn't put me off .This week I start having youngest DGS on Wednesday, Thursday afternoon and all day Friday as his other grandma is sunning herself abroad for a month.Today we have been asked to book our Xmas leave , best get on with shopping then. 😂. Back to work to tomorrow for one day .I have bought an air fryer and completely love it , it is definitely an asset in my kitchen.Life is an adventure, never stop exploring.3
