Good for your dgds mum. If more parents did their research there wouldn't be as much of a problem.1

Sunday already!We took the dog to a bigger local park this morning even though she’s not over keen on this one as there are too many dogs on it. I have a dog who doesn’t like dogs 😐 Anyway she had a good walk and I let her sit on the scooter with Mr SA on the way home. I got my step fix and am on over 15,000 so far. The weather has been lovely and almost spring like. I even have washing pegged out.Just made a batch of roast butternut squash soup for work lunches. Tonight’s dinner is stir fry. I’ve also done the meal plan for next week based around freezer/cupboard stocks.Money wise it’s another NSD and I’ve had notification the last 🐙saving session resulted in £1.91, better than nothing I suppose.Mr SA is having his siesta and I’ve read him the riot act about falling tonight so fingers crossed 🤞I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)7

Our dog doesn't like other dogs either. He is very much a person dog!1

Fingers crossed tonight is a fall-free zone at your house, @Sun_Addict. Beer rations may need reducing if balance is a problem. That might serve as a useful threat!

Hi SA. I am back and catching up. I’m so glad to see you are still planning holidays and so sorry to see that Mr SA’s falling and manipulation is no better. I have my keys attached to an extendable clip sewn into my handbag (like one of those lanyard extenders). That’s just because I’m a bit ocd about where my keys are, but I think that would work well for you. You can unclip them if you aren’t taking your bag…but the clip is fiddly enough to stop them being quickly hidden.I have everything crossed there is no falling tonight ⭐️Not all who wander are lost - J.R.R.Tolkien

Steps in the park, line drying, food prep, and a £1.91 Brucie Bonus, what a nice Sunday 😊
Hope your evening is restful and event-free2 -
