Too ambitious?? Depends if I get sidetracked with TV/crochet which is apparently all I do now 😬

I have a list like that, which I get distracted from by N3tflix and tapestry … 😉

I just get distracted!

😁 that's a good sized list Cheery - not overly ambitious for a Sunday.

Mine consists of wake up, drink coffee, comb hair, mani/pedi, basically get ready to run out of house errands. So far I'm up which is a win!

Well done RT! You're one up on me - I'm not out of bed yet 😬😂 running out of 'first thing' to do my first things in 😂 what time does 'late morning'  officially start?!

...I've managed to have coffee...
...then segwayed into brunch which OH made...
...not out of pj's yet...
...anything before noon is late morning - you are still winning yet! 😁

ETA - surely YNAB is an in-bed activity?

Ha, YNAB is a suit-on, full-coffee activity today! Gosh, I've not done it for so long it was in a right old mess and I'm not entirely convinced I've sorted it out yet. However, it SEEMS to balance (there's just a single regular saver payment that might be pending over the weekend) so fingers crossed. Goodness me. 

Anyway, we spent rather a lot on our long weekend away... Need to not have another one of those for a while... 

So, it's early afternoon now I think... and all I've done is YNAB and got some split pea soup in the hay box. Going to have to speed up a bit - going out in 3 hours! Might give the weekly home blessing a miss in favour of a very quick tidy up - I'm out most of the next few days and Mr C won't appreciate it anyway, so might just change the sheets and save everything else til next Friday... 

Right - washing out and some flute practice, then see what the soup looks like!

Cheery, however expensive your long weekend away was, I think our weekend in Amsterdam beat it - I’m too embarrassed to say how much we spent in four days! I am with you on not needing another of those again for a while - but we’re away for a two-week holiday in a few weeks. Already thinking about how we can make it cheaper (except I know Ireland isn’t particularly cheap!). I think eating out and enjoying yourself has become very expensive recently - I don’t think it’s just that we were having fancy meals (we had one of them and a fairly expensive lunch, but otherwise ate at a food hall type place/got something to go).

 Well done for getting YNAB sorted - it’s always worse when it’s been put off for a while.
