Back is murder, calling it quits for the day while Mr Vix takes youngest for a hospital appointment. 🤕

More garage organising this morning, think it's time to get rid of my fish tank. I've had fish for 15 years but there is nowhere practical for it to go now. Will try and finish the loft lifting and organising today, too. The extra deep insulation does make access tough!

Somewhat bruised wrist from dealing with all the boxes and building storage.

Mr Vix has gone to play golf which means I get a day for....

Yes I know it's rarely a good idea to log onto work email when you don't have to, but at least I know of the 117 emails only 36 are things I will need to deal with next week.... 🤪

Another week gone with more promises to contact eldest post interviews once again broken. I'm sure one day this will all be worth it, but in the meantime I'm glad I took her out today to take her mind off it all. May November bring us some better news 🙏

Needed a pick me up on such a grey day so popped to a garden centre. Couldn't resist a few little treats! Chrysanthemum, Primulas (that should love our boggy clay) Cornus, Euonymus & Heather.

I had forgotten how much I loathe trying to do the weekly food shop. Especially when the store doesn't have half the items I want. 🤬

If Trump gets elected, does that make the US the most stupid country to have ever existed?

Bored. Feel a long run coming on tomorrow!

Youngest was also bored this afternoon... look what she did!

Hell yes....

Run done. What now?

End of another exhausting week, I can't get over how busy I am at the moment (which I love) but omg everything just takes so much energy.

Just closed the window that's been open since we moved in. Brrrr. I may have to turn heating on one day! #Newbuild Liz R you told me so!

Where has the day gone? Honestly I ran, popped into town, dropped into my sisters and now I'm cooking dinner. Good thing I have plans tonight or I would be demanding a refund!
