1st

Coffee morning of the New Year. It has rained heavily overnight, thankfully it has stopped, but the ground is waterlogged.

I did manage a better night last night, woke briefly a couple of times, but that was all, so feel a bit better this morning. If DB is asleep when I am awake I just leave him to it, but if he is awake he wakes me and then I find it impossible to get back to sleep for hours.

Yesterday we took the decision to cut the cleaner down to every other week. She was off for 3 weeks over the holiday and was going to be off next Monday, so as I managed to do a bit myself, I decided to cut her hours down. As it happened she was ok about it, her mother is ill and it gives her space to do more for her.

I ran into a friend at the post office yesterday, it was good to catch up with news from her family.

Today I am hoping to start sewing again, my last effort ended up in the bucket........... I need to find a box to store the Christmas decs in.

Think we will have mince and tatties tonight for supper.
