Aahhh, I remember now. I meant to clean the bathroom!Kitchen drawer turned out and rearranged. Kitchen and DR vacuumed cleaned whilst I had the vacuum cleaner out to clean said drawer, which was disgusting. Admin decluttered, money shuffled. Washing brought it - washing is ironing dry but it’s going to be a cold one again tonight.Chunk of ginger cake cut and ready on the side for you, Pigpen.9

You all put me to shame!
Today I have
- FUPA DH's clean clothes
- done WMx1
- made up wraps for our lunch, and took mine with me when I went to...
- ... cardio rehab, because I knew I would be starving by the time I finished, and on the way home I was planning to go to the hellish shopping mall, where I ...
- ... returned an unwanted purchase to the sports shop, bought a refill of my favourite shower gel, and got carrots (we'd completely run out
- tried to drop off a few donations at the CS
- delivered the other birthday card that I wro0te on Monday
- collapsed on the sofa for an hour
- walked Rosie
- made deconstructed fish pie for tea
- filled the DW
- ate 2 biscuits because I was still hungry.
Unfortunately my usual CS is not accepting any donations this week - the result of New Year decluttering resolutions and TV programmes about warehouses full of people's stuff?
The cardio gym was only an introductory (familiarisation) session and therefore not too demanding, but no doubt the lovely people there will soon start cranking up the exercises. Apparently I have to go 2 or 3 times a week. Wonder how long I will keep it up?
Bother, I have just realised the time - it's now 10 minutes too late to sign up for tomorrow's zoom meeting of the family history society. How annoying.
Have a restful evening xxx

Feeling suitably knackered today. This growing a baby lark is hard work. I've got an opticians appt (flavour of the month @pigpen!) at 2pm and I just can't bring myself to do anything else before then. I'll head into town a little earlier and pick up the last bits I need for my hospital bag as well as lunch.
OH put a load in this morning and the dishwasher on before I got up so I need to go hang the washing out and unload DW (though tbh that could be done this evening whilst I'm cooking dinner) before I go to town. It's a bright and sunny spring day again here so seems a waste not to get it on the line!£2023 in 2023 challenge - £17.79 January10 -
