I’m currently being ignored by sulky dog. Sure he will be happier when the roast lamb comes out of the oven.

I have a tiny sofa, I sit on one half and I currently have a stack of food magazines next to me while I meal plan. On my other side, next to the sofa I have a small table with hand cream, tissues, mug and a glass of water on top, and a drawer with pens, and other small things in.

All nice and cosy, just about to watch tv with DD.
