Morning all xx
I'm up, made my bed, completed Strands with two hints, completed Wordle in three, completed Connections with no lives lost, completed Boxed In in four words, and supped my first brew.
Had a few stressful days at the paid stuff - ending the week with a (planned) move into a different office. One more week on Therapy and then I change to.my new roles....not that anyone has confirmed what they are but current understanding is two days ordering stock for DNs and two days in Macmillan. And a pay rise on 1st April or we'd be below Minimum Wage. Again. That will help with the increases in rent and C. Tax and water bill. 😊
So. I'm thankful that it's the weekend. And time to relax, recoup, and reset. Which leads me to:
Saturdailies
Brew 2
Shower
Moisturise legs and arms
Get dressed
Bring down laundry hamper
Sort washing into loads
Set first load swishing
Feed the birds
Put out rubbish and recycling
Put new bin bags in bins

I've also taken the cardboard packaging from a large photo frame, ripped it up and recycled it. Every little helps 😊

Arthritic back & hip giving me the hump today, was aching all night. Hopefully, as the tendon tear pain is receding, be they'll be able to sort me out at next appt. A hip Injection was mentioned at the last appt so I assume they mean cortisol or something 😬"I started out with nothing
And still got most of it left"

Afternoon all,
I’ve been relatively productive considering it is decidedly grey and uninspiring outside.Wm x 1 done, I have risked hanging a few bits outside, the rest is indoors. Kitchen venetian blinds dusted, window cleaned, floor vacuumed. I still have the blinds and window at the other end to do, but no point in getting too carried away in one go. I vacuumed the stairs whilst I had the vacuum cleaner in my hand. DH is inexplicably removing the wallpaper from the downstairs toilet of doom. No idea what has brought this on, but I don’t like to interrupt him by asking. I have kept out of the way by pottering in the garden, getting the green bin full again for its next collection.
Just realised that I have got nothing out from the freezer for dinner and the meal plan is unhelpfully blank.7 -
visited a very unhappy, sobbing mum today. Managed to cheer her up but she’s really not good. can’t be helped…she needs care so, until her mind empties of people and memories a bit more we are at a tricky stage.Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily Dickinson

Morning. Wordle in three, one line on connections, strands with no hints and letter boxed in five.
Will potter today before DGD2s sleepover. In my mind I think I might clean the car. Whether this happens or not.....
Have a great day everyone.Spend less now, work less later.7 -

Athletics is on telly at 11am.
Might postpone picking up my prescription until tomorrow - and take a bag of books to cs at the same time. Could ask other cs if they're accepting donations....mmmm l'll put the box in the car and if they say 'yes' I'll drop that off too. That's a plan then.
