A PROMISE

 Today I have promised myself two things.

1.  NO chocolate or lollies!

2.  NO chipping up asphalt.

I totally overdid BOTH things yesterday, and by 8 pm I was completely DONE IN.

I was exhausted, and my stomach was churning from having chocolate after dinner... and lollies for lunch!

Yep, seriously stuffed up my day eating shit, and doing too much.

So today I'm going to do things differently.

No sweets.  No physical exercise.

Just chill out, be a lazy tart.  Watch Netflix.

ABOVE:  I took this photo of Coco for Mike yesterday.  She's so cute.

I can't believe she's now 12.  Such a sweetie, and doing so well.

ABOVE: This is the salad I bought for our dinner last night.  I don't buy pre-packaged salads too often. I had not bought this one before.  I can highly recommend it though.  It was just lovely.

You could easily add more ingredients to it, to make it go further too.   I didn't bother, it was just enough for Stew and I, with a bit left over for my lunch today.

Right, time to get a move on... and do nothing! lol

12.55 pm:  And I am doing NOTHING!

Seriously, all I've done today is water the gardens.

And that was not strenuous at all.

ABOVE: The back lawn is taking it's sweet time dying off, but it is slowly dying.

Once it's totally dead we can rake all the dead stuff off and re-sow with GOOD grass seed.

Bex just visited.  She's getting Lacy some groceries.

ABOVE: The dogs went nuts when she came inside. Rather sweet.

ABOVE:  Steve has today off work and is out fishing off Kawhia, lucky bugger.  He said he's caught quite a few fish too.

Suemn has left a new comment on your post "BACK TO NORMAL":

I am so glad that the asphalt company is paying you to replace the driveway. They really did a horrible job.

Ahhh Suemn, I don't know where you read that.

The Asphalt Company did NOT pay for us to get a new driveway at all.

They refunded our deposit and gave us a goodwill payment towards the removal of their defective asphalt, which in no way covers all of the removal, at all.

The new concrete driveway is being paid for entirely by us.

5.30 pm:  And as you can see, I've been very quiet on here today.  That is because I slept all afternoon.

Yep.  Did NOTHING at all.  I can do it!

I can't say I feel better for it either.  Still tired.

The Covid fatigue is lingering around it would appear.

Tonight Stew and I are gunna have some sort of takeaways for dinner.

Talking of Stew, he should be home from work in the next half an hour or so.

8.48 pm:  Dinner was fish 'n' chips.  Very average.

Stew is now watching rugby and I'm watching a movie on Netflix.  It's boring.  I will be switching to something else.

Catch ya tomorrow.
