Had to change plans today because of the rain.
Instead swept the kitchen floor.
Then did the bums and tums class on WW..
Had lunch and I have just washed the kitchen floor.
Going to tidy up the bedroom as well.
Hopefully tomorrow less rain and I can get out .I am a Senior Ambassador on the Competitions Time Board and the Old Style MoneySaving Board.
