Gosh, you’ve all been chatty today!
for annoying Hs.
I missed EWFL. I also tried to watch last week’s but it doesn’t seem to be on iPlayer - anyone else had trouble?
I actually feel really happy with how much I drink. It’s a lot less than in my 30s... we probably share a bottle of wine a week, on average, with maybe the occasional G&T on top. Then maybe a bit more if we go out or see friends but that’s not such a regular occurrence these days. I very rarely drink enough to get a hangover - maybe once or twice a year? - and not stinking ones either, even though i get a hangover much more easily these days. I also don’t mind not drinking (if designated driver or up early with Kids). So all good.
Mixed couple of days. I’ve been struggling with DS for the last couple of weeks because he’s been really agitated about the school year ending, imminent change of teacher etc., and his behaviour has been very testing at times. Last night he, DD and I were all in tears at one point! But then today, the last day of term, he’s been brilliant. Even coming happily along to the local park for an informal picnic with half the school - actually deviating from the ‘going home’ routine would have been unthinkable last year. So today has been a good day on that Front. And quite a frugal picnic - I bought berries but made a stuffed picnic bread with stuff I mostly already had in (pine nuts, sundried tomatoes, gruyere), Just bought two yellow peppers. And made apple oaty muffins with some elderly apples too. All of us are shattered tonight though! Off to sleep now... 😴
Not such a good day frugal wise as I checked the credit card balance
