I'm not going shopping today. It's not because of the rain, because there is no rain. It's just because we haven't really got much to get. It's a waste of time going all the way down town for strawberries when we could just go down to the little Tesco to get them. That's if they have any ofcause! Instead I'm going to stay home and do some Mylotting while watching telly. My Mum needs to get some of her repeat prescription from.Boots, but she's asked my step-dad and he's going to go and get it. She asked him if he wanted her to go too, and he said there was no need. So, what are you getting up to today? I hope you are all well. Have a nice day.

We have a home health aide coming to see hubby today so that he can get some prescriptions renewed. Nothing else going on. Have a good day.

@sharonelton I’m looking after my daughter this morning. This evening I’m making the dinner - stuffed peppers. Taking a break from decorating the new house.

I hope you enjoy looking after your daughter. My lunch today is just a prawn layered salad so no preparation necessary. Dinner tonight is smart prawn linguine. Prawns again. I'm going to start to look like a prawn! But the problem was I forgot to put the prawns out to thaw! You're supposed to put them out to thaw for a minimum of 8 hours in the fridge. So instead I've just put them out and layered them on a plate, not in the fridge. So hopefully they'll be thawed before I come to do my dinner tonight now.

@sharonelton years ago when I worked at the Little Chef (remember them?) we used to thaw the frozen prawns by just putting them in a sieve and running them under the cold tap for a couple of minutes. That works just fine.

Yes, I'm enjoying staying home Mylotting! It's been a busy morning. We've had 3 people ring our doorbell. The first one was British Gas come to take the old washing machine away. The second one was the delivery people who brought the new washing machine asking if we had some scrap to take away, and I said it's already been taken. The third was two guys delivering a mattress and we told them they had the wrong address. The place they wanted was three doors up the road! My step-dad went out to get my Mum's repeat prescription from Boots. He's still not come back yet and he's been ages. While he's been out the phone rang but my Mum couldn't get to it in time, so we don't know who that was!

No. Not really need to get anything. I'll probably go down town again next Friday, if the weather is fine.

This morning I took a couple of people to hospital. That was really early so I thought I would be back in plenty of time to get work finished and then get out in the garden this afternoon. It hasn't quite worked out that way yet though!
