Back again

Octopus end all their communications with Love and Power!  Bit weird but at least they seem to be a decent company to be with!

Ah thank you for pointing that out, I thought it was weird.

Happy new diary, good to have you back. I generally lurk. 

I cringed at love and power and stacked it up on the 'no' side tbh.

Friday morning is reading in school day , I enjoy this very much . This afternoon I am going to move my summer clothes from my wardrobe and replace with winter . Yesterday I got another pair of £17.50 trousers from M@S for winter and a jumper . I am trying not to spend my winter in jeans . 

Can anyone recommend some thicker tights for people with short legs 😂.
Today would have been my DDs 11 wedding anniversary, I will be thinking of all she has been through the last 2 years and hope she stays strong and doesn’t have the ex back . 

Does anyone have any ideas what to buy my sister in law for her 60th birthday. She isn’t a big part of my life as due to tragic circumstances my brother is no longer with us . However she has been a good Auntie to my children.

Everyone have a Good Friday

Can you consider a teenage range for the tights?

Sending hugs to your DD. ❤️
Re SIL's 60th, I think a voucher for a nice afternoon tea or meal is always a good idea. You could always add a bottle of fizzy on as it's a special birthday. Otherwise, perhaps a nice hamper?  I feel that once we get past 50 we usually have enough 'things' so an occasion to go out or some nice edibles fits the box!

Thank you SSG for the suggestions. 

Had another email from Octopus late Friday afternoon from the same person and it now sounds like I am getting nearer to an ending that I will be happy with. 

School was lovely listening to the children reading , the difference in abilities is quite vast even at age 5/6. 

Yesterday I had my flu jab which has definitely given me a reaction , feeling a bit grotty today . May cancel the Covid jab later in the week . 

I had my youngest DGS yesterday for a few hours , he seems to have grown up in the 3 weeks he has been at school.
Today is all about getting ready for the week ahead and it is a busy one . 

Time for coffee to get me going.

I’ve got my flu and Covid jabs in a couple of weeks both at the same time. I’ve felt rough after every single Covid jab so have earmarked the following day to chill out and do nothing.

Tuesday afternoon already , late lunch for me as have been catching up on work awaiting answers from managers. Only 3 hours and that's me finished for the week again . I love my job but two days is definitely enough for me now. 

Tomorrow I am having an outing to meet a friend , am sure coffee will be involved . 

My car is a little poorly, garage thinks the noise under my car is the exhaust pipe , so it's going in next Tuesday for them to have a proper look. 

I have a Covid jab on Thursday, just hope no reactions to it as busy Friday at school , then DDs birthday on Saturday . 

Have had a few sales on Vinted this week so far  £23 coming my way. Winter clothes are now in the wardrobe and summer ones packed away until November holiday.

Saturday again, today is a Costa visit locally to meet a friend , a trip to the tip and charity shop. Then off to see mum and dad for whatever they need doing, This afternoon I am at a birthday party for 3/4 yr olds with youngest DGS as it's his mums birthday today so she is off on a trip to the cinema . We had a tea party last night as a family for her birthday . 

Tomorrow I am doing my usual Sunday chores , then I need to review Christmas and see what I already have present wise . Have had to cut down this year on presents for other people. 

My Vinted account has had a few sales , which is going to be used next weekend for my day trip to London.
