Friday, 22-11-24

 Morning, everyone.  It is still cold here today but tomorrow is expected to warm by considerably - and there's a storm a-coming too.  Oh, well . . .

The saga of the wine order goes on.  Yesterday morning, I got an email from Naked Wines saying, basically, that my order had been packed and on their way.
I thought - either they know something about the fate of the first order that they are not saying (ie it got nicked, or they have requested Yodel to return it to them - good luck with that one!) or I am getting two lots
9:56 - message from Yodel saying box would arrive today between 11:43 and 13:43 - very precise!
12:26 - one box arrived - the smaller of the two.  It's a start
Also, an email landed to say the other box will arrive by Saturday.  Again, we will see.

I don't want to get two lots of my order because I will then have to wait in for one order to be collected to return to Naked WInes.  Two lots of plonk would be very nice but there's no way I would be able to keep it - far too expensive.

Enough of wine.  Yesterday was another good day, albeit quite quiet.  After online SET (very good, as always), Chris came over and we had a jolly good chat, catching up with each other's news.

I got the yellow room sorted out - as much as it's going to be right now anyway - and the blue room is not guest ready with the beds made up, etc.  All it will need is a quick dust and vacuum next Friday.  SO that is ticked off the list!

Today is Slimming World and, after that, I'm off next door to Morrisons to do a small shop and pick up my meds.
I plan to make some bread; there's plenty of other bread products in the freezer but not a lot of just bread .  There's a bit of housework to do and then I'm having a me day (again) and do some recipe hunting/meal planning.  I always enjoy doing that and the new Pinch of Nom book arrived yesterday so I hope I will find plenty of new ideas.

I've added to the bauble decorations and there's more in the offing.  It's really good fun and some will make nice mini-gifts.

How are you spending your Friday?
Have a great day and stay safe and warm.  xx
