    I’ve had a nice relaxing day today after 2 pretty full on days. We had originally planned to go out for lunch but neither of us fancied it in the end. Mr SA had a dodgy tummy from his overindulgence yesterday and I just wanted a pottering about day. 

    Took the dog on the park this morning and then came home and tidied and cleaned up. After lunch I sat in my hanging chair and read my book with leftover Prosecco from last night. 

    Couldn’t make my mind up what I wanted to eat tonight but have found a portion of the Greek Baker’s Pot I made earlier in the week in the fridge, it seems to be ok still so will probably have that. 

    Happy there’s no work tomorrow so no Sunday scaries tonight 🥳

    Happy Birthday.
