Thursday evening, 10-10-24

 Good evening, everyone.

This is what the BBC said about the weather round here today when I checked this morning.

I think someone got this a teensy bit wrong, don't you?

Judging by comments all over Facebook, it was all over the country,m these hurricane force winds that magically missed Mid Essex - wasn't that lucky!!!

OK, so - today.

You know the feeling when you think you have loads of things to get done?  I felt like that today so did myself and Little List and worked through it and you know what?  It really wasn't that bad.

I did two loads of washing which is currently draped all over everywhere - I must fold them and sort them out before I stop for the evening.
I finished doing Jen's farewell gift for Slimming World tomorrow, wrote a nice little message from us all and got some flowers to give to her alongside another gift.
I did my personal card and little 'thank you' gift so that's all ready too.
I decided what I am going to make for the taster table at said group and got what I needed.
I had a lovely chat with Chris.
In town, I looked for bras, was disappointed by M&S (they had loads more online) so now I've got the new size sorted (see line below) I will order some.
I finished up in John Lewis where the girl was so helpful and I ended up knowing what my size is now and also paying what feels like an exorbitant amount for one bra (but it's a good one!) - the others I get will be cheaper.
I came home, put the bins away again, had lunch, folded any washing that had dried and then I could sit down so I did and got on with the Christmas project.

And that was my day.  Phew.
Good night, everyone.  Sleep well and sweet dreams.  xx

  1. A good bra is worth its weight in gold. I am struggling with M and S bras just now so time to go back to Bravissimo. Catriona

    1. I'm not struggling with them, just with finding them. I was almost shocked how much more choice there was online. Now I know my new size, it will be a lot easier as I can buy online and I already have what I want chosen; I will leave it until after I get back though. xx

  2. It was a busy day, but obviously satisfactory. 😀

    1. Yes, it really was. It's funny how a little list helps you get through things. :-) xx

  3. Don't bra sizes vary with different makes? It might be worthwhile to just order one to start with to make sure that it really fits.

    1. Good point although it wouldn't be tricky to return - it's always nice to9 have an excuse for going into town. :-)
      It is irritating how they can differ. xx

  4. I miss our local M and S since it closed. I loved the quality and fit of the bras but it annoyed me that two identical bras might not have the same fit.

    1. It's the first time ever I have not been able to find what I wanted in M&S. I support there's always a first time, isn't there? xx

  5. I had debated whether or not to hang out my washing, yesterday ;) It gave us a chuckle, at least. Xx

    1. Yes, it did me, a split second after reading it and realising it couldn't possibly . . . Didn't stop; me opening the curtains, just to be sure. :-) xx

  6. Yes, the forecast was the same for us too. I'm very glad it was wrong though.

    1. In a way, if it hadn't been for the awful things happening over in the USA, it would have been very funny. As it was, assuming it was the work of a hacker, it was just rather sick, I think. xx
