Morning all, happy Tuesday.
WFH today and the Mr M shop has been delivered and packed away.
Gosh it's cold this morning and trying to snow. The Mr M delivery driver had shorts on!
I've got a busy day at work today with meetings morning and afternoon where I'm taking minutes so can't nod off 😆
Today's exercise is dog walking later this morning, bums & tums at lunchtime and resistance bands tonight.
Tonight's dinner will probably be a stir fry as I have peppers and mushrooms that need using pretty sharpish.
Housework will be a massive stack of ironing and cleaning the bathroom.

The snow never got past a few flakes in the air this morning. It's been lovely and sunny all day.
Mr SA has had a call from the urgent care team and his name is down for a visit, no date as yet but at least he's in the system. He was really annoying earlier as I was taking notes in a meeting and he was faffing about with the dog in the background, making lots of noise, talking to me and expecting me to respond! Thankfully he was asleep upstairs during my second meeting.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)5 -

Glad to hear you got the call from the urgent care team. Things are definitely moving now. Shame you can't lock Mr SA in the shed while you're working! You could put a TV in there with him and food!😉Finally Debt Free! - July 2016 🌟

OBL not sure if you know anyone with a c@stc@ card. Both myself and ds bought a Gormia air fryer from there. £42 when we bought them and they’re brilliant. We both use them a lot.I’d previously bought a tower one but it wasn’t really big enough so we take that in the motorhome with us.
I’m pleased there’s an appointment on the cards for Mr SA.
