Happy Saturday 🥂
DS and the GKs are visiting this afternoon. The GKs will be disappointed that DD isn’t here. They run straight past me and up to her bedroom usually so they can play on her gaming set up.Today’s exercise is live ClubFit shortly followed by taking the dog on the park then a walk to the big Mr T with the soft plastic and battery recycling.Tonight’s dinner is pizza and salad plus Prosecco of course 😉
Cleaning will be a quick whizz round the house with the polish and vacuum before the GKs arrive. Hoping to sort out the freezers at some point and make a meal plan based on what’s in there. Far too much stuff in there.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)6 -

No visit from the GKs as DS is unwell. I used the unexpected free time wisely and sorted out both freezers then sat reading my book for a bit. Just about to sort out a couple of drawers in the kitchen now. Mr SA went for his siesta about 2 hours ago so it’s been very peaceful.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)4
