Hello, there, everyone!!  How are you?
It's yet another cold start to the day with plenty of sunshine predicted for the afternoon.  I'm loving these sunny days this week - when the sun shines through the windows, the heating goes off as it keeps the place lovely and warm.  No complaints here.

Thank you for your concerns about my aches and pains.  I found some ibuprofen (much better than the other kind for this sort of thing) and it really helped. 

I got those drawers beside my bed sorted.  There was a lot of rubbish in them but I also found some useful stuff (including the ibuprofen, so that made it worth doing, full stop) and, while I can't honestly say they are tidy exactly, they are now organised with just the usable stuff in them.  Tick!

I also finished off the ironing.  Another tick.

No weeding though - it was too cold or, more honestly, I was nice and warm and didn't fancy getting cold! And the ground is pretty frozen at the moment anyway.
It will keep and as long as it's done this month, that's the goal.

Then Lindsey got in touch to say her hospital appointment was taking much longer than she had anticipated so please could we put personal training back to today or Friday.  I can't do Friday so it is now today at the same time.  So no massage yet but it is feeling better, all the same.

I remembered that today Matt the Plumber was coming today to replace the water softener so I went into the kitchen and cleared out the cupboard under the sink, glad that I had already sorted out that particular space.  And then I got an email from him saying that he'd gone to pick up the water softener and they had got the wrong one.  It's been reordered and will be put in next week instead.  Shame - I was looking forward to getting my softened water back again this weekend but it can't be helped.
So, this morning, I put all the products back again - but in shopping bags so they can just be lifted out wholesale next week, apart from items I use every day.  I can still find anything that I need but it won't be a hassle to clear the cupboard.

So it is a bit all change again today.  No Matt so I can do the SET class online, Chris is coming over a bit later as a result and it's personal training this afternoon.  I should sleep well tonight.
I will be very careful, I promise, and I've already said that I'll stop if I'm the least bit worried.  As on Tuesday, I can adapt as needed - Lindsey never minds.

On the elephant nibbling side of things, I have more drawers that could do with a good clear out so that's today's little task.  And finally, I have a friend coming for lunch tomorrow and I thought I would use a Simply Cook kit;  I need to decide which one and, hopefully, make it today.

There's plenty there to keep me out of trouble, isn't there?  It should be satisfying.   I hope your day is the same - satisfying, I mean.   Take care.   xx
