Living Large, on a Small Income, by the Sea.

It might be worth looking up how you 'pair' the remote to the boiler as it may have lost the wireless connection.

Good news on the new WM.

I agree @doingitanyway that the house is there to serve you, not vice versa. Tail wagging dog? Love Humdinger xx

Thank you. The central problem is not resolved. However, I now know how to get heating without the remote so I had warmth today 😊

Exactly that 😊

I think that is something I need to look into. Thank you 😊

Thank you 😊

Thank you @Tresinia511 I so agree. The buffer zone IS more relaxing than a glass of wine…although booth are good 😊

Today my DB came to visit and got my CH working manually. There is still an issue with the remote but that can wait as I can now access heat.

We had a lovely day doing lots of walking, which we both love to do. We had some nice food in a little restaurant I have been wanting to visit for a while. We had a nice catchup. I spent some money as I was taking advantage of his car and getting a lift with heavy things.

The walking helped with my back and leg. They both feel less sore than they did.

I had a shelf I no longer want that we dropped off at a friend's house.

TV and lots of tea for the rest of the evening

I hope you have enjoyed your day too

What a delightful and productive day, and big hurrah for heating!

Thank you. To misquote Beatrice Kaufman, I've been cold and I've been warm. Warm is better 😊

Yesterday was busy but the weather by the sea was awful. I thought I would be blown away. I made it to yoga after mega procrastination. I was late, but I got there. Teacher noticed my stiffness and soreness…I missed an afternoon appointment. I made it to the evening film (but only because I was picked up and dropped back) I went to support someone but it confirmed I won't be doing it again in the evening at that venue in Winter. In cold, wet, dark weather if I go out in the evening I need to be able to walk there in 5 minutes, or not going.

I felt I needed an 'at home' day so I am still in my housecoat. Plants have been watered. A bathroom has been cleaned. A big chicken and veggie stew made. A NSD claimed. Where I live, most shops stay open at the weekend and are closed on Mondays. So, I'm thinking it should be a default NSD generally.

I haven't done a wash in the new WM yet. It has turned into a stress point because of past issues. I need to overcome that and stick a wash in. Better still, as part of the nighttime routine I want to load the machine ready to to go on when I wake.

I'm going to make biscuits to use up some almond flour. Really simple…almond flour, maple syrup and almond butter (so GF and Ve)

I am enjoying the calm and organised downstairs space

I need a finance rejig after the new wm and DB visit

Will leave the house briefly to declutter a teapot and 2 books to the CS.

A bag of awkward rubbish out of the house needed

Posting on tech section as I am thinking through concerns with Minted

I’m still in my PJ’s. Most likely gave neighbours a fright taking out rubbish & getting things from car 🤣

I stayed in my pj’s until 1.30pm yesterday 🤣 Some days you’ve just gotta chill 😊

Tresinia511

Dia, I love a chill day. It's not a proper chill day unless you have pj's on. Or in your case, your posh new housecoat
