Brain woken up

 I went to bed just after 8 pm last night and got up at 06.20 this morning.  I wasn't asleep for all those hours, but certainly slept quite a bit, with a couple of fairly short wakeful periods when I put the light on and read for a while.  So this morning I do feel a lot better and more 'with it'.

Just the Jamie Oliver ice cream to make today, I'm using smashed Maltesers in it this time instead of the mint Aero I used last time.  All dinners and a couple of lunch things are cooked and in the freezer (which reminds me, I must get the lasagne for tomorrow's dinner out of the freezer later on today), my menu plan for all meals for the coming week is done, so I'm feeling organised.  Just the bed linen to change tomorrow morning and hoovering to be done.  The girls are arriving at lunchtime, so I'll make sandwiches in the morning and put them in the fridge, ready for when they get here.  The weather looks as though it's going to be pretty good for the week, which will be lovely, I know the girls will enjoy sitting in our van garden.

It was very misty when I got up this morning, but that's fast disappearing, cloudy and dull at the moment but due to cheer up.  I'll ask husband to do a bit of weeding today whilst I'm busy indoors, I'll have to keep an eye on him though as he's not good at differentiating between weeds and flowers.  He pulled all the flower buds off my alliums last year as he thought they were seed pods on bulbs that had already flowered! 😒

I won't be posting every day this week whilst my sis and her friend are here, we'll be too busy enjoying ourselves, obviously!

  1. Doesn't everything feel better when you've had a decent sleep? Your comment about your husband "dead heading" the alliums made me laugh. It reminded me of my Dad digging up all the globe thistles, thinking they were weeds. Mum was livid! Enjoy the company. You're so organised, there's nothing to do BUT enjoy! xx

  5. I'm finding that if I overdo the carbs I can't sleep. Have fun with your sister.

  6. You sound very organised, much more so than I ever am when I have guests coming ... I usually notice the dust AFTER they have gone. I hope the visit goes well. xx
