If it's Monday then it must be ...... emptying the bins.

Are you fed up of this yet?  Our local day for bin collecting is a Tuesday - one week normal and one week recycling - so it made sense to have today's weekly task as bin emptying so that the large ones are ready to put out.  Mind you I also tidied around the utility room and cleaned out the fire place n the lounge so I have not been to lazy!

This morning was the Textile Group -our project for the next couple of weeks is to draw a doodle picture with the free machine foot.  Since Linda didn't have a machine with her, I lent her mine and then spent the time helping her to finish two UFO's from previous group meetings - there was a good feeling of accomplishment and Linda got a round of applause for finishing!


This afternoon was the dreaded weigh in.  After my efforts this week (I am still amazed at how good I am being!!!!!!) I was pleased to see the scales shift downwards by 2 1/2 pounds.  We could always wish for more but I am now only 1 1/2lbs  away from the 2 stone mark.  So close, yet so far away!   I wouldn't mind but I am out three times this week - tomorrow will need a pack up but then Thursday and Friday I am out at different pubs.  More careful choices me thinks!
