Good morning my lovelies xx
Looking askance at Fayolle. Is this plagiarism I see before me? 🤣🤣🤣 And of course I will join you (since it was my idea in the first place! 🤣🤣🤣) You made me laugh. Thank you 😘
A slow start here too. Looks at clock. Oh! A very slow start. 🐌. I'm up, made my bed and had a brew. Thassit so far.
No further side effects to the vaccinations thank goodness. And I slept on my left last night. Happy zzzzzs. piggers - I have dithered for weeks about having / not having the jabs this year. I could change my mind several times in one conversation! Anyhoo. Tis done now. Being vastly overweight, over 60, and wheezy I decided to risk it.
I spose I should get dressed and fly. Or at least flutter a little. Brew 2 and breakfast first.
Have a good day.
Rxx

DH is taking his dad out for dinner as would have been mums birthday today...3rd without her
I am sitting at my desk with papers and books piled up on either side of me and I realise - these are 'hotspots' and I really need to get them cleared. So that's my plan today, make an attempt to tidy out the office and as a minimum clear the desk. Tbh this might just invlove shoving said 'piles' in a drawer until I have more timeHave a good day everyone xx

Yep, Round, that was full on plagiarism 🤣. I couldn’t let a good Round idea die without sharing. And seeing if you would notice, of course 😉.
Bathrooms cleaned. Wet washing draped. Coffee in the pot (because it is Sunday and I am feeling like doing a proper job), so help yourself. And tea bread in the tin, as I channelled my inner domestic goddess yesterday. Nothing to do with using up old bags of mixed fruit and maximising the oven, of course…11 -
Googled tea bread. Ooo yes I'm on my way Fayolle. But can I have instant please - I'm a coffee plebeian.
I did tell you that I'm inclined to call people out in RL. 🤣
Anyhoo. I'm dressed. I've fed the birds and put out the recycling. Done a laundry shuffle. And dried a few of yesterday's pots while I was waiting for the kettle to boil to make my coffee.
Had a curveball phone call regarding the health of a dear friend. Fast tracked tests. Please join me in praying for the all clear result. 🙏
I need food

I've checked both stores here and there are none. We got a slightly different one but she liked thee 2 more. She is appeased for the time being.
Squeak was super brave and had her nerve conduction study done with the aid of continuous pep talk and my epic (eclectic) play list and ear phones.. Her nerves are fine so unless something was flagged on the MRI we have a diagnosis of functional neurological disorder.. it has improved from its onset but not perfect.DD2's GF has taken Pixie to the Taylor Swift thing at the cinema.. it is the second time she has been, DD2 pulled a sicky.. but Pixie was SO excited.. they need picking up about 6.Am@zon delivery 4 stops away.LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)10 -
