Afternoon all. Hope Joey perks up soon Round.I've done a washload and dried it in the sun. Cooked a "roast" dinner. Various things DH can't have so it's a bit of a compromise but better than nothing.Swept round in the back garden, washed all the saucers under the outdoor pots and dried them in the sun before putting them away in the sun until next Spring. The pots were surprisingly light so I've watered them too. We had a little rain overnight but obviously not enough.Was going to say hope everyone's OK but I can see that's not really the case, so in that case I hope things get better for all of us x5

*Helaing vibes* for Joey and everyone who's feeling under the weather for whatever reason.Strands was fine, forgot about finishing Wordle after I'd got three of the letters and Connections was a total fail.My back's decided that something I did this morning was too much, so I've had an afternoon of sitting at my desk working out why the food budget is cause for concern. A hot water bottle wedged against it helped a bit, a D33p H£at patch is helping and ibuprofen helped a lot. Well-made plans laid to see if that reduces it to manageable proportions. I can see where the excess spending is occurring which is a start. Now I've got to stop myself repeating the pattern.See you all on the next one.Better is good enough.5
