    Morning all, happy Saturday. 

    Thank you all for your lovely comments. 

    I’m shattered this morning, could do without DS and the GKs coming today but it is what it is. I need to do some serious tidying up and have loads of ironing to do. Better get the new ironing board and iron out of their boxes 😆 The B00ts order arrived yesterday and I haven’t even looked at that properly yet. 

    Tomorrow we’re off to the city centre again to pick up Mr SA’s glasses - could really do without that. 

    I’m looking for some showerproof ankle boots comfortable enough to walk to work in when it’s raining. I can see plenty online but I’m really hesitant about buying footwear without trying on first. P@vers have the exact ones I’m looking for but we don’t have a local store. I hate it when I know exactly what I want but can’t find it. 

    Also considering getting a pre lit Christmas tree this year as I hate putting lights on the tree plus our tree is a nightmare to put up and take down, I battle with it every year. 

    Plans for today ClubFit shortly then the big Mr T to recycle soft plastics and I need some fresh coriander. I’m taking Mr SA and the dog with me so the dog gets a walk out of it and Mr SA gets his going out fix. 

    Curry night tonight, making butternut squash dhal. Rose cava is in the fridge ready for Strictly.

    I would love a day when I don’t have to go anywhere or do anything just to catch up on things. 
    I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)
