Happy Sunday!
I've managed to do 14 listings for DH and downloaded a load of photos from my phone this morning.
Not sure what the plan is for today. Not much probably!"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee3 -

I've got two lots of washing out on the line and just made krispie cakes with little miss. DH has gone to the car boot. I shall be having a little rest for now as I've gone all lightheaded suddenly so I shall just sit and rest and finish my audiobook.

A big drink of water and a sit down sorted my lightheadedness, so I've been pottering around tidying bits and prepping lunch since. I am just going to chill this afternoon though!

I did sit with a book in the afternoon, sadly I still haven't managed the art of getting the children to wait on me hand and foot
