NO WALK... GROCERY SHOPPING INSTEAD

The next two days will be 'walk free' for me.
That will give my legs a chance to recover from three days of walks in a row.

Instead, I shall be dropping the kids off at school, then going into Hamilton to do the grocery shopping.

I'm not actually dreading it either!  Weird I know.
But, as we are really low on FOOD, I can't put it off any longer.  *smiles*

Once home, I shall put it away then get on with some sewing I think.

I'm working on Christmas gift bags next.  No more gift wrapping for me.  I can't thank whoever it was who suggested making bags enough!  No more dreading having to wrap all the presents.

Such a relief.  And over time, the expense of having to buy wrapping paper and cellotape will make up for the cost of the fabric.  I'm going to  have fun making them too.

I've got a bit of Christmas fabric already... but might check out what's new in the shops too.

 ABOVE:  So, I've got 6 Christmas fabrics, some more suited to little bags.  
It would be nice to get some more bright and cheerful ones too.

ABOVE:  I thought this Kiwiana fabric would make a nice bag too.  Maybe some of my 'Kiddie' fabrics would suit being Christmas bags too?  Hmmm.... must check that stash out too.

Right, I'm off to get the day started... catch ya later.

ONWARD...

2.00 pm:   And... groceries are bought, and even put away.
Had some lunch then popped over and properly met a young mum just across the road from me, she's doing the Urban Challenge walks too.  Only she's a nutter and does them at 5 am in the morning!

She's a nice nutter though! lol

She's got one little boy, who's almost 3.  He reminds me of Griffin, very tall and solid for his age, but when he opens his mouth you just know he's still only little.

So basically, I've been out all day.
Therefore, I'm staying home tonight, and going to WW tomorrow, to the midday meeting.

That way I can even stay for the meeting, and see what I think of that group.  Though from past experiences, not many people actually stay for a meeting at midday, usually they weigh and go.  Time will tell eh?

It's a lovely day today!  Sunshine, and if you are out of the wind, it's lovely and warm!  Very crisp in the wind.

I should be doing some housework, but I reckon the kids can help me when they get home.  Griffin's pretty good with the vacum, and Brylee can clean the family bathroom.  
Gotta teach them how to keep house eh.  *smiles*

Next... dinner.  At least we have options now!

Tonight we actually had left over beef stew made into pies.  Twas yum.

And that's it from me for the day... Coronation Street just started, so I'm off to watch it.
