Kez - 31st Oct

House:
* 15 mins clearing out spare / junk room while B did 15 mins in his room - I'm finally getting somewhere with the room, I found the bed & remade it today.

Kitchen - Planning ahead & Leftovers:
* Froze the chicken that I bought today straight away rather than procrastinating about it.

Garden:

* I knew it was going to be hot today - forecast of 36 deg C - so I got out in the garden about 8:30am and potted up the blueberries, custard apple & various citrus that should've gone in the ground before spring but are still in their original pots... (is "potting up" the correct term for moving stuff from one pot to a bigger one??) Still one to go but I've run out of potting mix.

Finances:
* grocery shopping today. For the first time in ages, I stuck to my list and my budget. I had $80 to spend - before I left I wrote approximate prices on the list so I could see if anything had to be left off, and kept to that. Total spend $78.15. (And I've written it down as well)

Exercise:
* Does watching Billy swim count?! :)

Kitchen:

Garden:

Exercise:

5 mins...no 2 hours!

Decided to tidy up Danyal's bedroom (with some help) as Hannah and MJ had gone home so the blow up bed needed put away etc in the end we moved all the furniture into new positions and also hoovered behind everything etc - it looks really good now
