A good productive day had...

Thursday 22nd June 2023

It's amazing what you can do when you put your mind to it.

Well I woke up and I could move which surprised me after all the DIY I did yesterday, so I'm a happy lady, they do say it's the following day though don't they, fingers crossed.  I was just glad I was able to do it.  I managed to walk round IKEA which in itself hurts like hell, my leg was screaming by the time I got to the checkout.  Then the challenge of getting the boxes in the car and out again the other side.  6 boxes, the heaviest 30kg, I can't believe I used to carry sacks of potatoes 2 at a time when I was a kid, I managed though, even got them upstairs to put the furniture together and here's the finished results.  I love having someone who can do all this kind of thing for me, but I enjoyed doing it yesterday and reminding myself I'm still more than capable of looking after myself.

Our clothing storage solution, these make me very, very happy!  They took hours though and I'm black and blue now plus my poor thumb is red raw thanks to the crappy screwdriver handle being ridged.

My day was none stop yesterday from the minute I left at 8.30am, actually I started an hour earlier by sorting out all our paperwork into filing drawers (check me out) I stopped at 8.30pm and ate this chicken tikka masala out the freezer, it wasn't bad tbh, Sainsbury's own brand I think. 

Then I drank a very, big glass of wine before going up to bed, I messaged Elle at 9.45 and she was like 'what you doing still awake', then ten minutes later told me to go to sleep and take painkillers, I love how she takes care of me lol. 

Not gonna lie, I went to bed sweaty and smelly, I just couldn't be bothered to shower so that's the first thing I'll be doing when I finish this blog, then find something cool to wear today, thankfully the mem is always nice and cool. 

WOW, I did 13,001 steps yesterday, that's really good for me, no wonder my leg was hurting round IKEA, didn't sleep any better for it though, still only had 6 hours, wide wake by 5am. 

Let's get this day started shall we, lots of huddles for me, I'll continue with the sorting for an hour when I get home at lunchtime.  I'd have loved the whole day on it tomorrow but my cars in for MOT, fingers crossed there.  I've got all weekend to mess and there's always next week isn't there, just want the living room done before the sofa arrives Saturday.

Here's to a great day, 

Mwah, luv y

Love me x
