Day off work.
Feels like I haven't got much done but have actually made tonight's dinner (Cauliflower cheese and a baked (airfryer) gammon joint). And two loads of laundry and shifted a couple of bags of outgrown clothes from DCs drawers.

Need to book a few appointments and do an online shop before school pick up.

What have you been up to?

Walked 7,000 plus steps along beach. Finished buying husband’s birthday presents… did some knitting. Yesterday was better as I took some bike panniers and a bag of clothes and books to charity shop and sorted out husband’s medications, I hope.

Im on Day 2 of being off sick from work (unheard of for me) as I have picked up "something" - a virus, likely.

I have been in bed, whimpering and feeling very sorry for myself.

I havent eaten anything since Friday, and was feeling quite lightheaded.

Of course, this would have to happen on the week when everyone else in the house is away, so no one to pander to me 🙁

I had a hankering this afternoon for Heinz Cream of Chicken soup (usually soup is home made). So my achievement was making it to Tesco, buying the soup, and managing to stand in front of the hob heating it up.

I ate about half of it before crawling back into bed, but hopefully even just that little bit of food will help.

I finally got round to going and seeing a dermatologist to get my skin tags/age spots/ icky flat warty things dealt with after finding someone who did an unlimited lesions package rather than charging by the lesion.
At least 50 places on my body got frozen off, and though it isn't great painwise it was massively constructive to finally get it sorted out
