Trashy film watched after lunch and crossword completed.
Enough fire wood brought in to last until the weekend.
A load of fire wood has been ordered to arrive on 2 November.
Slowly remaking the bed with the clean bedding.
Picked all the red cherry tomatoes - left some green still on the stalks. It's been so mild the tomato plants are still flowering!
Picked the last of the runner and French beans although some flowers have appeared on the French beans this last week  or so - maybe I'll get one or two more... It's been a good, long season. They are all simply planted in grow bags in the side yard where it's sheltered from the elements and the dog...
Home made bread loaf proved on the hearth by the lit fire and now in oven to bake.
Getting on the outside of a G&T and will make dinner once the bread is done. 
It's good to be back...xxx

I'm here asb xx

Another tough day at the paid stuff. So frustrating being expected to do a new job with no training at all. After being on the receiving end of a lengthy rant from a caller this afternoon I sent an email to cockwombles saying what I thought. Basically that I was winging it, it's affecting my mental health, and it's no way to run a Service. Result. We've been pulled off the new job until there's a SOP and guidelines in place. And breathe. 

I came home, unpacked my lunch bag, and got changed into my scruffs. And flumped. Tomorrow is another day. 

Get well soon to all the poorlies

brilliant result Round…well done

came home from wok bushed so laid on the sofa, stuck tv on, covered myself with a blanket and dozed.  

Have stuck carcass in to boil for soup with an onion and some veggies.  Pots soaking now.

Sorry, yesterday was a complete flop after the busy weekend.  Today my anxiety is really kicking my bum, and I am struggling. I hate to be a burden to anyone, so I don't really have anyone to talk to about it at the moment. 

You have us. And as I often say to my Mum when she says she doesn't want to "be a nuisance" - it is MY perception, choice and decision whether I find HER a nuisance - she cannot decide for me that she is a nuisance.  So have some hugs and feel free to rant - you are not a burden.

I haven't flown a great deal today.  Swimming x 2 (once gym, once lake); church group; report writing; email dealing. Both meters read and sent off to Eon. Bill received.
Mr N has rung the boiler men and they are coming to service/fix the boiler tomorrow.  We had the Aga on for half an hour this evening just to defrost the house a little.

WUALTD, sorted out the stock so it’s back in the fridge with any actual meat, bones flung in green bin (also for food waste hereabouts), so chicken soup tomorrow…yum yum.  Chicken did 4 of us for sunday dinner, 3 portions of risotto (very yellow as I slipped too much saffron in) which were tea last night and DDs lunch today, and now soup…should make at least 4 portions.  A very rubbery chicken!

DW locked and loaded.

Morning all.  Hope you're all well today.

 I don't expect to get much flying done today as I'm having a day out with friends.  I do have a wash load to go on line though so I'll do that in a minute when I've finished my cuppa.

Have a great day everyone.

Morning

Stayed out of the WAC thankfully, cold symptoms aren't much better but I need to be at the paid stuff so will do 15 minutes yoga then get a move on.

Well done for telling them Round.  I promise I will also be brave today and keep up the fighting spirit x

Not sure what flying will get done today, I finished some washing off in the tumbler so have pulled that out and folded it.

Have a good Wednesday all x

Washing on line, admin checked.  Mouldy shower curtain survived the washing machine so I've put it back in bathroom.  So pleased I didn't have to buy a new one. Batch of food prepped for Poppet.
