Good Morning Lovely Ladies
Well it's 8am here and DD16 hasn't got out of bed yet...I am guessing her big week of 4 full school days has caught up with her. So I am just going to let her sleep and see how she feels when she surfaces. So it's a few quiet activities for me until then.
I had a really good FLYing day yesterday, weekly vac through all in one day, 5 (yes 5) loads of washing, needed to catch up and get in front as rain was predicted (but it's sunny today). 2 baskets of folding done, 2 more to do today. AND..DH and I had a 'date night in' last night. Girls were out having dinner elsewhere so DH and I had a lovely dinner for 2 of Pork Chops, Baked Veg and Steamed Veg. YUMMMM!!!! Then DH sat and watched football while I cleaned up the mess. And guess what....you use the same amount of pots and pans when you cook for 2 as when you cook for 5, lol
Anyway, on with my day. I need to get some exercise done. Missed a few with busy day out and busy day cleaning (and slight lack of motivation ), so need to get back into the habit. The weather has been almost nice enough to start walking outside again, just don't know if the calorie burn would be as high as the uphill treadmill in the same time and when I do it I want it to be as efficient as possible. But then variety is also good, so I should make the effort a few days a week.
Oh also, there have been some changes at work and it looks like my weekly services are no longer required. DS21 is doing 2 mornings now (to pay off a debt we helped him out with) and DH has employed DF (best man from our wedding). DF has been in sales all his working life and really knows how to sell, he is great with people and knows the industry well too. He just needs some time to familiarize with the computing/point of sale system. I think I will be called in for when DS21 goes on Uni prac or when one of the other employees has holidays etc. Suits me just fine . Also DH has changed up the rooster too, so hopefully it will free up some time for him and he can have a few late starts or early finishes. So that's another bonus.
Anyway DD16 still not out of bed, so I am guessing no school run this morning. Time to get something happening. Wishing you all a Fabulous Friday and a Wonderful Weekend xoxo
