I've done the ironing and popped up to the shops for few bits, shelves were fairly well stocked and while there they had a food delivery arrive. Anyone who has been following these posts will know last week all my ornaments and bookcases etc were dusted, and I've now decided that I'm pacing myself, aren't we all, so I'm going to have one busy week, one quiet week, so next weeks task is to sort out my spare room, I have so much rubbish out there so going to get everything out clean it then put everything back

Hi Jennymary ,
It sounds like you've been really busy today. 
I have done some postings and sending messages during the morning and part of this afternoon. I plan to do some reading and see if I can finish: "The Things We Do For Love".
I been doing cleaning.
I ironed, cooked dinner and fell asleep listening to an audio book.
I am soooo fatigued I couldn't concentrate to read a book.
That is due to health issues but actually at the moment I am loving the fact that I can isolate and have time to myself.
Tomorrow I plan to tidy my kitchen cupboards.
Hi ellj ,
What was the audio book that you were listening to earlier today?
Sorry your feeling fatigued hope you're feeling better soon. And you said a swear word too.....ironing
The Orphan
I am trying to find the book called
This is going to Hurt.
Are both of the books a series?📖

This book's still in print elij, and still currently available from Amazon. I'm not sure what their delivery time is for books right now as they may not be a priority delivery, but if you have a Kindle or compatible ebook reader, you can have it delivered to your device in under five minutes. I must say it's on my list of desirable reads, so if you beat me to it, let me know if it's worth a read! 😊
It’s hard not to go mad and everything at once. My mum had the best idea she would do jobs all morning and then sit in the afternoon 😊
I went out on a lovely fast walk this morning, had lunch, spoke to youngest daughter, been on the computer updated my low fodmap food diary, made some GF bread and then dinner.

Cut grass, shopped, cooked, cleaned, went walking, drew a picture and watched telly.

Ironing is a swear word as far as I'm concerned..... But I nearly contemplated doing some today......for a fleeting moment.
I've been doing emails answering posts on weight loss forum as today was my weigh day. I'm a Wednesday wobble warrior!!!!!
Walked Archie got some washing done and dried.
Waiting for a bit warmer day to sweep my grass!!! No I'm not going mad I had artificial grass put down last year and it needs brushing once a month but not done it for a while cos of the winds we've had. Treated the weeds in garden and patio other day so need to get rid of those.
nearly contemplated .. this is okay, but keep an eye on yourself
contemplated .. definitely vulnerable
eyed up the board and iron .. call gp for advice
made contact with the board and iron .. pack your bags and call ambulance
good luck and keep resisting. i know you can do it.
Cheers so far only got to step one burst out in sweat sat down for a bit and urge went away!!!?!
Will you be my sponsor if I need one please?
i feel it would be safe for me to do that.
and it will give me something to do"in these difficult times", to try to remember when i last succumbed. the old memory's dropping off a bit now.
stay strong
I will with your help 😆
we, the enlightened, must stick together. especially in these tough times, when some will still be ironing their "loungewear" (pyjamas).
Ohhhh I need help you mentioned the I word again!!!!!
And why have you turned into Winston Churchill?
oh dear, i can only apologise.
and i think i'd better hide in my flat so no one can see my shame : not come out again for about three months, maybe longer, who knows ?
It’s okay! You’re doing okay.😀👍 Relax and do some reading.
i hope that isn't subliminal suggestion activ, those lovely crisp smooth pages, flat, folded, and piled hire ready for consumption ... quick, hide this post from crafty before she gets and anxiety attack
that was supposed to be "piled high"
I will be back soon after dinner tonight.😀👍
Hi Jennymary,
I seemed to have very little time today. That was because I had a marathon conversation with my sister this morning and another with my daughter this afternoon. I did manage to turn out a roast dinner after that. My husband did all the laundry this morning and washed up after dinner,(he's such an angel), so I've been relaxing for most of the evening!
Your home is going to be sparkling when this is all over, Jennymary, whilst I shall still be promising myself a good spring-clean, and envying you for having been so industrious. 😊
He's definitely a keeper.
Tracy and I had just started the spring clean so I've got a spotless kitchen but that's as we got before she had to stop coming. We were doing a room at a time. She cleaned windows, blinds, cupboards, worktops, splash back etc. We must have known it was coming!!!!!
I am still telling myself there is plenty of time, so am practising pacing myself! Also telling myself housework will wait until it's raining. System is working so far. I am also doing several online courses (free) with Future Learn. There is a huge range to choose from.
It's surprising how much free online stuff being given away at moment.
Like your plan my kind of plan.
Depending on how old you are you may remember a film called the secret civil servant I hope. About Quentin Crisp and he said after a couple of inches dust doesn't show anymore so needn't bother cleaning
Dame Sybil Thorndike always said 'leave it quiescent' about dust.
Hi. Cleaned fridge this morning, now got batch of pasta sauce cooking. When it’s done will take dog for her walk
i won't say it again, i swear, i'm not the sort of person to take pleasure in a spot of s & m.
Oh shucks I'd even dug out my stilleto heels ready
now there's another thing i've never understood.
but please, may i say to ANYone reading this, i'm NOT looking for an explanation. not condemnatory, but i'm quite happy not understanding.
Your ok no way could I walk in them.....or even stand!!!!;
Done with dinner now.😀👍
are you going to share what you had? but not if it was spinach, for fear crafty gets offended by it's mineral content, lol.
Sure! It was Greek yogurt, veggie burger and baked beans.😀👍
What did you have tonight?
i did a potato and onion thing, with an egg on top.
That sounds great! Is it a Loaded Potato?
You talking about me? Mind you don't do spinach..... unless it's raw in a salad
I had sausage, mash peas and lashings of gravy.
Your meal sounds good.
It was and a lot of people think this sounds awful but I'm having cold sausage sarnie for lunch mmmmmm
Interesting! What is ‘sarnie’?
• in reply toActivity2004
A sandwhich.
Activity2004• in reply to
Thank you for letting me know, Hidden . I never heard that word (sarnie) until now.😀👍
• in reply toActivity2004
You learn something new everyday.. 
Activity2004• in reply to
Yes! That’s true. Thank you!😀👍
How are you doing today?
• in reply toActivity2004
How am i doing what? 
Activity2004• in reply to
Awe! Today is a little cooler than yesterday, but I’m okay.
In Yorkshire it's a sandwich, other places it can be butty, maybe people can say what they call it
Sounds like a great idea.
now what? crafty!
me, i love a bit of spinach
cooked into a quiche, or lasagne, or under an egg, or ...
not trying to be offensive or anything, but i believe in "diversity for all", including spinach.
Everyone can like different things. That doesn’t make a person ‘offensive’.😀👍
No offence taken just joking.
I'm fructose intolerant though so most green veg a no no for me.
We can talk.😀👍
funny how those words seem so often to bring a full stop to any conversation.
Don’t worry! Everything is going to be okay.😀👍
Today was lazy. Go for a run with the dog, work in the garden, clean the chicken house, help out in the firehouse, talk on the ham radio, watch the craziness in the world.
Tomorrow I’ll go sit on a hill and watch things go by.
