Good morning all xx
I'm up, made my bed, dressed, packed my lunch, eaten breakfast and supped my brew. A creature of routine that's me.
I'll feed the birds before I defrost Feargal and head off to the paid stuff.
Hmmmm. 1st December tomorrow and I have Advent calendars for peeps. Not thought this through properly...but at least I remembered where I'd stashed them: TARDIS 😉 I'll text the recipients and arrange collection/delivery ASAP.
Have a good day. Hugs to all and an extra hug to members of WAC to keep you going through the day.

ETA just beginning to snow here. Marvellous!!! Not xxIT ONLY TAKES SMALL DAILY ACTIONSFOR MAGIC TO HAPPENRosemary Ikpeme9 -
Morning all
It's snowing here on the south coast which is quite unusual. Started off with the odd little flake now and then about 45 minutes ago but now we've big fat ones. It's settling on next-door's shed roof but not on the ground.
Today's plan, as outlined yesterday, is to do the porch, hall and living room then finish the AC boxes. If I finish them early, I'll drive them over to DD's this afternoon, otherwise it will be tomorrow sometime. As long as they are there for DGD when she gets back from school tomorrow, it'll be fine.

Morning all (again!)
I managed to drop back to sleep. Rearranged things for today so I don't need to go anywhere, car can stay where it is firmly like an igloo! Also got an online food slot for tomorrow morning which is good.
I have fed the animals, babes away to school, made the beds, S&S the bathroom and degunked the shower plug hole. The dogs had a good run on the field. Small amount of dry laundry FUPA. Feel like I've done a lot more but I suppose that's not bad for 9am! Will crack on with paid stuff, happy St Andrews Day to our Scottish contingent xx10 -
Another here who was in the WAC at 4am, maybe the rest of you who were awake were too noisy, or perhaps it was cold! No snow yet but a thick frost. I didn't wake up this morning till after 8am. Must be three days of childcare catching up on me.
Today I need to get out to the tunnel, didn't make it yesterday. I think the cold will have killed off the runner beans. I'll cut them down. They should grow back next year. I've had the same ones growing for three years already in there. Also need to do DW, several times, and maybe some washing. I need to me all plan for the next few days, use up the leftovers in the fridge. Still need to find Christmas presents for children we'll see at Christmas, grandchildren all sorted. Our children we don't see can have money. The problem with spreading your family out across England and Wales. Might run the Hoover round the front room.
Hope everyone is well, and not too much snow anywhere, keep warm, hugs, mumtoomany.xxxFrugal Living Challenge 2025.9 -

Me again. Done most dailies and a very cold dog walk. Saw three flakes of snow and it's lovely and sunny now.
Sorted banking, still on for low spend December and have now decided to knit instead of fly before more paid stuff.
Is it really only Thursday?Spend less now, work less later.9
