Snow on the hills a few miles away from her, but nothing on the low ground. Wind has died down too.
Had a productive morning sorting advent calendar fillers to send down for our nephew. Was panicking a bit but have found a little stash of things left over from previous years so we just now need some choccy bits.
Supermarket shop £100 and £33 at butchers. We've got friends coming over tomorrow so I bought a massive pork shoulder (bone in) to slow roast a la Jamie Oliver. There should be enough for tomorrow, another roast dinner and for fajitas.
Properly back into frugal mindset now and having the cleaner is making me want to sort out the 2 rooms in the house which are cluttered, our "hobby" room/dh's office and our bedroom. We've decided that after 15 years it really needs an overhaul so new window, carpet, decor and fitted furniture, very exciting. We have got money saved for it so will work to a budget.
Got tickets for a musical for dd and I to take mil to in January (as her xmas present), sil wanted to come too so we've agreed to do it in lieu of presents for each other and are going to go halves on mil's ticket, food, drink etc as a joint present. Really trying to simplify things this year. We all have what we need so experiences are better imo.
Hope Mrs is okay, haven't seen her for a while and she wasn't feeling well.
