Plan To Do Today 

WUDUPA 

9.45am brunch with L ✅
Coffee with P & S* ✅
Drop bag of books at cs ❌ P & S will drop it off for me when they go to town

* Drop pouffe off at P & S's - to sell at P's auction. Fer-ling ✅

On the way home I called at PO and paid the rent and the leccy bill, and withdrew cash ready to pay the hairdresser on Saturday. Then called at Mr C00p and bought bits for packed lunches this week.

I've changed into my scruffs and brought the hoover down. While the pots are soaking I'm going to hoover up the dustbunnies that were lurking under the pouffe.

Wordle in six with Belovéd's help, all four Connection lines (very unusual for me), loved Strands, Letter Boxed defeated me.  J is an odd letter. 

Very surprised when I weighed myself to discover I am 800g lighter than I was on Saturday morning.

Laundry away, another load through the WM and pegged out, Wren walked, two Wren mistakes cleared up.  I'm hoping this will be the last of it.  Some emails deleted. 

Bathroom grout scrubbed, bath, sink and loo cleaned.  Passport sent back to the passport office for renewal, which I did over the weekend.  Irritated I had to do it months earlier than technically necessary because of the three month rule in France.  We're hoping to nip over there for a day or two in April/May time, and I don't blame the French for that.

Now completely exhuasted and very frustrated because there's a lot I wanted to do today.

🙂

Done the usual dailies, been for a nice long walk, had lunch, made a start on the kitchen - having poked my head into the undersink cupboard, I realise it's more chaotic than I'd remembered and will take more time & energy than I've got left for today.   I'll finish the rest of the kitchen & have a think how/when to tackle the 🐸 cupboard.

Good evening everyone,

I had a nice cuppa this morning and sorted my jigsaw into colours and was almost late for work, whoops.   Given the bathroom and study a thorough clean... didn't realise how dirty my radiators had gotten, yuck.  Cooked a delicious dinner and I'm on my way to make a cup of Horlicks before having an early night.

Not an enormous amount to report here.
- one load through DW 
- went to DanceFit
- went to library and complained that as my app hasn't been working and I've had no emails letting me know when my books were due back, why do I owe £12.50. Very nice lady apologised, lots of IT issues and obliterated my fine. 
- dropped in to church friend who is doing an NVQ and struggles with IT skills; fortunately she only needed showing something within my capabilities.
- continued sorting out study/hobby room
- went to zumba ok I had a nap first!!
- emailed some old photos found in Mum's stuff to my step-siblings; Mr N has been restoring them. Had 3 replies so far, all very pleased.
- emailed old school friend as I'm planning to go to that town in a couple of weeks on my way home from visiting Mum. I have too many people I want to see there so I don't know how it's going to work out. I don't want it too rushed or for people to feel they are low on the list!

Morning all.  Wordle in three.

My plans for today include getting admin and finances up to date, changing sofa throws, changing bedding, getting washing machine whirring, walking Poppet and giving shed door first coat of paint.  I also have an exercise class later.

Have a great day everyone.

Morning all xx 

Usual Tuesday 'I don't want to go' jitters, but I'm up, made my bed, dressed, taken my meds, turned over the calendars,  packed my lunch bag, completed Wordle in four, completed Strands with no hints,  completed Connections with one life lost, eaten my breakfast and supped a brew.

I'll feed the birds and put out the recycling before I go. Must remember that I'm meeting S for tea at the village pub straight after work.

I put the feather duster on a stick round the LR yesterday evening. Sudden urge. Oh my days. Note to self: look up occasionally 😳

Have a good day.

Good morning all,

Thanks @Valli for the list, I've made a start on the kitchen already and will finish this after work.  Got the porridge cooking and tea stewing atm.  Also on my list for today is to return some parcels, pick up a parcel, hoover all the floors (again) and keep on top of those nasty dishes that seem to pile up out of nowhere...
