Good Morning All! What are you up to today?

I'm just drinking my first cuppa, in my conservatory spot...ALONE! The alone part is important today - dd1 kept me company until I went to bed last night!

The washer's on to clear some of the overflowing basket before she adds more, the few pots we used last night are soaking & I've had a very quick tidy round for now. I'll take my tablets and sort them for the coming week now, before anything else.

Today will be a pottering kind of day here. Dd2 needs a hand to link her bus app to my card and order a new bus pass ready for college, has a pair of trousers she wants taken up a little bit, and wants to shower early to prepare for her college induction day. Dd1 has the best part of 5 cases to unpack 🙈 and needs to see if she's been scheduled to work this week.

Some of it is going in it's living places here until she moves out again. Goodness knows what the rest is doing! Hopefully what's left will condense into a small case, to live in a big case!

I also need to sort my work bag but that can just be chucked in til the morning.

Dd1's asked for risotto for tea, so risotto it is! Accompanied by a glass of wine for me, and probably something off the shelf with lemonade for dd1. Dd2 may or may not join us.

After that, showers and early nights all round. I'd like to read the end of my book but we'll see 🤔.

What about all of you?

Afternoon all, we were up at 8 and showered and dressed by 9, greek yogurt and strawberries for breakfast. Towel wash on then sitting in the garden with my audibke book and a litre of water ( on WLIs and have to drink 2lts a day).
10.30 we were off to Lacock Abbey for a walk around, I walk witjh a mobility walker and tge Abbey is great underfoot for it.
Tyen into The Red Lion Pub there for Roast Beef lunch, which I can highly recommend if anyone is in the area.
Now just home and back in the garden with the other litre of water and perusing Vinted and MN.
DH has gone for a nap.
No idea what we will eat later, im so full probably just some fruit for me.

Good morning from Canada, its 9:30 here. We’re going out for a late breakfast in a few minutes, then we’re off to an outdoor play place before we go to a museum.

We’re having some of my husbanda friends around tonight that he hasn’t seen in six years, so we’ll all watch the football together later when its on. We fly home on Wednesday so we need to start getting a bit organised and get some washing done.

Evening @lucysmam & everyone. Enjoying the evening sunshine & one of the bunnies is hopping in & out of the kitchen. DD17’s friend has just arrived. DH is having a nap as he’s going to stay up for the England game after all. I’m hoping to but may crash & burn as I didn’t sleep until 3am & was awake around 7, plus I’ve done a full day at work in the heat. We so need aircon! I went for a blood test after work (unusual for a Sunday). Popped out to Tesco Express for milk & chocolate. DD ended up getting 2 meal deals. DH & I will have ham on the bone, coleslaw, celery/nut/sultana salad & buttered Jersey Royals for tea. Might do the dishwasher if I can be bothered & hang out DH’s white shirts. May hoover up the rabbit poo. Oh yes & got petrol whilst I was out. So chuffed when it stopped exactly on £10! I need to fill up but can’t afford it.

Bit tired from sitting up watching the football, so I've cancelled my 11am Zumba class.
Got friends coming to stay for 2 nights so I'll make a start on sorting the house and shopping in a minute.
