    That's some huge to do list and a busy week ahead! Make sure there's you time fit in there too.

    Hope Mr SA is okay x

    She'll do the bulk of it Beanie but she doesn't get home from work until 9pm and we don't really want her stuff in our room another night or the furniture shifting to be going on that late.

    Have done almost everything on my list. The photos for the friend in Oz will have to wait, I don't know what she wants them for. I think she's a bit homesick at the moment.

    Just need to put my soup ingredients in the soup maker, do the ironing and have a bath. I honestly don't know where today has gone. I was up at the crack of dawn.

    No real goals for December other than damage limitation regarding budget and weight loss. Should be ok if I don't go mad. Went way over budget in November and ended up using what had been earmarked for savings to pay off cc. I start the month really well but events seem to take over and I start going free range.

    Next week is only a 3 day working week, the carpets will finally be down and we can get straight again plus I've got Prosecco left over from last night - happy days :)

    Almost forgot today is NSD 1 of December :)

    Mr SA has asked me to make sure he's awake before I leave for work tomorrow morning as he's still frightened about the blank episode.

    Then he reminded me that he still wants the bootee slippers and when am I picking them up. Not gone that blank then.

    Mr Lucky does stuff like that. Can’t remember anything I need him to, but if there’s anything important to him - like remembering when a programe he wants to watch is on for example - suddenly his memory works better (it doesn’t, but you know what I mean :mad:). Xx
