Changing curtains at mum and dads the two big windows in the house , joint effort it did give me some exercise. The children's party was ok , but DGS was a wallflower as I thought he would be . He joined in a couple of things and ate all his party food. 

Enjoyed a peaceful evening of strictly. Have got up this morning with a snotty nose , I hope it is just a cold . Have lots going on this week so need to be well.

Found your diary and subscribed. Well done on your Xmas shopping, I’ve not started yet but hope to have it done by the beginning of December, so I can have have a relaxing run up to the day,(I say this every year but not not managed to do it yet). I’ve a week to my payday, it’ll be a squeeze but hopefully will make it money wise.xx

This morning finds me on a train London bound to meet up with RL MSE friend . Looking forward to our catch up . 

Yesterday was catching up on housework and an early night . Did I sleep no chance so I look as though I have been out on the tiles all night 🤣. 

Going to visit Battersea Power Station today and then see where we end up after that . 

Not mse but will be having a drink on the train with 10% off . 

Since my negative friend hasn’t been in touch I have felt so much better and have headspace again to deal with my own things . 

I am hoping that she will be in touch again after Christmas but things will have to change . Anyway that’s enough from me .

Had an enjoyable trip to London last weekend , ended up with some delay repay for a 30 minute delay going into London, some shenanigans on the way home but only delayed 10 mins. 

The week has gone by in a whirl, work Monday , Tuesday , Wednesday wad computer training with work for a new system starting beginning of December . I have four more 3 hour sessions and they are all on days I don't work but getting time off for this. I did my cleaning at some point Wednesday . Thursday was shopping with dad, then took parents to Dunelm , out for lunch , home then swimming lesson with DGC. Friday took DGC to a big play area as it was half term here , then DGD stayed overnight , dropped her at home Saturday morning . Then I went to my U3A walkers group for a 2 hour walk by the side of a local canal where you pass our RHS gardens. After walking I then met my friend at a very large well known garden centre , home in time for Strictly and to watch the fireworks at the cricket club next to my home . All in all a very busy week , I will mostly be at home today . 

Have ironing to do and food to make for work tomorrow. 

Dinner later is hunters chicken, roast potatoes in the air fryer and veg.
