What have you done this morning?

I walked to the bakers early today for bread and donuts, emptied the dishwasher and cleaned the filter and arms, how bits of eggshell manage to block the holes I'll never know as I'm so careful to make sure there's none on the plates, and its a bugger to get them out. Now I'm reading my library book.

Taught 4 hours worth of online lessons. One was a mammoth 3 hour lesson. Poor students. Poor me.

Cleaned guest 'suite' and bathroom, made bed, then made soup, cake, and white sauce for bolognese made yesterday for lasagna tomorrow- cleaned kitchen- whilst OH shovelled 1 foot of snow.

Guests arriving after opening of their exhibition at local Gallery- about Kinsugi. Have you heard of it. Wonderful and so symbolical, for people too.

Looking forward to Dalgliesh as I've just heard it was filmed in Greyabbey near here.

I didn't know that Kircubbin. Must tell OH. I stopped watching as was too graphic.

You live in a lovely area. Our favourite day out is Mountstewart about an hours drive for us.

Not a nice morning - neighbour rang me to say that my fascia has broken and fallen off on to his shed. Rang roofer who will be coming over tomorrow to have a look at it. Depending on the cost, and excess, might have to get Insurance involved. I can’t remember when I last claimed on an insurance. It’s really hard, when you’re a woman on your own. Moan over….

Up at 10.30am. Didn't sleep until 6am.

Doing weekly bathroom clean in bursts, resting in between. Lying on bed now still in dressing gown. OH has done kitchen.

Not a very productive day. ...

Supervised MrJ getting Christmas stuff out of the loft, read the magazine from todays paper, gave GC’s their advent calendars. That’s about it!

I've put my printer in the wheelie bin

It snowed overnight so I made a snowman. It was hard work but good exercise. I hope it doesn't last long!

Nearly finished writing the Christmas cards

Wrapped myself in a big fleecy blanket, curled up in a comfy chair and listened to a book.

I wrapped up gifts for my brother and his wife in Canada and posted them. The postage was £17 . OMG.
Next year they get socks.
Then I drove to the car wash and found it was still broken after I got stuck in it a few weeks ago. So drove further and managed to find one that was working.
