    I’m not a curry lover but like Mr M korma. 
    What a pain having to clean up again after cats and Mr S.

    Poor you having to clean up after Mr SA and the cat.  I'm terrible when there is something smelly to clear up - you cope amazingly with all the daily trials and tribulations.

    Happy Sunday. 

    Mr SA has been worse with his accidents since we got back from holiday. Thankfully he didn’t have any while we were away. I do get fed up of constantly cleaning up after him 😞
    I’ve been up for ages as I had both cats making various attempts at getting me out of bed. They won eventually as they started upsetting the dog. 
    On the plus side I’ve already read some of my book, done a couple of Spanish lessons and now have a deep conditioning mask on my hair. 
    I need to put the flea treatment on all three animals today. The dog happily lets me do it, the cats run off the minute I get the box from the cupboard. 
    Also must plant seeds, get home insurance quotes and have a look at the Clubcard vouchers expiring at the end of the month. 
    Tonight’s dinner is a portion of vegan wellington from the freezer with veg. Mr SA is having beef done in the slow cooker. 
    There is Prosecco left from last night 🥂
    I’ve had an email to say we’ve won a prize on the Lotto. Not getting too excited because I only recognise one of the numbers so suspect it’s a lucky dip and £5. 
    Need to give the dog a run on the park with her ball today. 
    Hoping the weather stays dry as have load of washing.

    Sorry to hear about the accidents that Mr SA has had , it's a good job you have wooden flooring . I hope you can get it investigated after the trip to the doctors . 
    I am starting to wake up very early for me these past few days about 5.00am probably not early to you. 
    My house insurance renewal albeit only contents was actually cheaper this year with the same provider, which surprised me . 
    Have a good Sunday and enjoy the rest of the Prosecco . 
    Life is an adventure, never stop exploring.

    So pleased to read that you enjoyed your holiday SA!👍
    I do hope all will be well with Mr SA's test results - such a worry. So sorry to hear of the 'accidents' as well. That's all you need! ☹️

    I wonder if he's picked up an infection? I don't blame you for telling him off, he should respect your things and remember that your chair is special to you.

    Well done for getting your seeds sown, you're ahead of me.
