Day 41 an’ it’s a scorcher!! ☀️☀️

When a dog’s awake everyone’s awake…. bloody woofers. It’s 7.40am on a Sunday we’re woken by a bark and the first word out Craig’s mouth is… what time is Asda open? Ok…. so now I’m really awake. SHOPPING!!!!!!!!

Up, shower, hair wash, scrunched, eye liner on….. I am leaving the house yay!!!!!

Few pics of the dogs in the sun before we left!

Not letting go in case the others get it!

Check how empty the roads were on the way to Asda Linwood

Craig dropped me off then went to get cheap fuel at £109.9 a litre the cheapest in a VERY long time. Then a drive to try and charge his leisure battery so he could run the diesel heater to stop carbon build up.

I was in the queuing system in Asda. Didn’t wait long to get in but as I was queuing they suggested the Shop and Go app so you scan your food as you go round! U-MAZ-ING!!! Cuts the checkout time to minutes. Not gonna lie… the start of my shop was probs a lot longer than normal as I took a handheld scanner AND my phone… turns out I didn’t need the scanner lol. Had to wash the handheld scanner with disinfectant on a bit of blue roll… all while juggling phone, trying not to stand near anyone and not touch my face!!!

So…. not gonna lie, my anxiety at the start of the shop was pretty high! I felt myself breathing heavily and I seem to have taken to talking to myself on the way round… I have a list… cannot think clearly, master the list and pen and the handheld scanner and my phone which at this point I think I need…. I also have the added slight pressure of Mr Avery waiting for me which crosses my mind as I hurtle through the clothing section desperate to miss something I might not be able to live without. It’s funny because when you actually get to a shop now you feel you need to make it worth your while and get everything as you can’t just pop back to Asda easily. So… as I said above the actual check out part is fantastic. The girl explains I could have used my phone instead of the handheld scanner. Makes sense but I was determined to use both 🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

Out and ready for collection… thankfully didn’t seem to keep him waiting too long so all is good! Have to handball the shopping into the Jeep. Why? I didn’t get bags… that was way to much to do with everything else going on…..

You get the gist??? I took hunners o’photies and the roads where pretty empty!

Village life…. hand balled the shopping into the house… 🤷🏻‍♀️

Thought I’d take a selfie with my new phone screen and my hair washed and down!! Sat in the sun having breakfast.

After breakfast “we” tackled the bottom end of the garden!

This is me tackling the garden…. need content for the blog?!!

Looking no bad… except I apparently am responsible for the first sleeper against the fence being squint as he drilled it from the other side….. looked fine to me… 😬

Craig chatting over the fence while I sit taking pics of the dogs following his every move!

Had a wee visit from Nacho the cockapoo today!

Nacho and Leo the almost cockapoo twins!

Freya being told to stay still for the photos but she just wants to play!

BBQ dinner, steak for Craig and chicken kebabs for me. Still hot outside!

Who expects to look after the furniture when there’s hosing going on outside!!! they were desperate to get out!

The number of people who have died in UK hospitals, care homes and the wider community has “only” risen by 315 which seems a “good” reduction from the last few days. I’m very conscious that these are real people’s lives ending and yet we talk of them in numbers. The total UK deaths is now 28,446. They have confirmed that the lockdown has worked in slowing the virus. There doesn’t seem to be much other news today as I guess it’s a Sunday…
