Well yesterday (Wednesday) went well, managed to do the shopping, spent time with sister (Amy) and her daughter in the day. In the evening OH and I went out for a nice meal. Our first choice was a Meze restaurant but they were fully booked so we went into town. Had a great meal but it was rather expensive compared to where we usually eat. I guess you get what you pay for - well sometimes anyway. We would definitely go back there again as the food and service were both really great. Returned home and daughter had cleared up after her Monopoly night, and gone to bed early so all good there. Tried going to bed early myself again (1am ) but had a very disturbed night getting off to sleep and then awake coughing so not a great success. Last night was much better as I slept really well.
Reminds me of Someone lol
Today (Thursday) I had planned to visit a new coffee bar that has opened locally with daughter but she went to the cinema with the toddler and then to soft play and French class. She forgot all about it and so I think we are going tomorrow. Apparently they have a children's play area there and it's near a local park too. Anyway, all was not lost as I finally managed to spend 2 hours sorting the mountain of junk and paperwork in the corner of my bedroom. I think it has been there for around 2 years, as it was dumped in a rush when youngest son moved home after parting with his ex girlfriend. Our 'office' in the box room only lasted 6 months and then became his bedroom again! Gave the corner a major vacuum as the dust was thick underneath. Unfortunately, (as I have a dust allergy) I had a really bad coughing fit with eyes streaming, so had to stand out on the balcony in the fresh air for a while. I am fine if it's dusty and settled but once I disturb the dust I react quite badly. All ended well and I feel very pleased that at last I have managed to attempt sorting out the paperwork. Another 2 briefcases full to go lol.
Daughter and toddler are spending the night at the boyfriend's home so we have the house to ourselves tonight. Cooked a lasagna for supper and Amy visited with some summer tops for me. She buys and sells clothes in her spare time, and these are lovely for the summer @ £2 each, so I bought 4 from her. If I ever finish the paperwork I will have a project on the bedroom next, sorting out all the clothes I never wear! I'm planning to do an hour every day until it is all sorted. I'm sure that I read somewhere that 95% of all paperwork we keep we never look at again, so I am being quite ruthless with what I throw away.
Bye for now All the best x
