turpsIt was my B12 three monthly injection this morning, then off to drop off some groceries to nanna.
She has this habit of talking about people as they're leaving the house, obviously it never crosses her mind we're not deaf and can still hear until outside. As a result I try to get out as soon as possible. Today she'd been nicely complementary about my weight loss, which she's apparently finally noticing. Then when I was leaving I heard her saying how I looked good now, but was very, very obese before. Which okay, true. But thanks, nanna. As always, it's good I love her so much.
Yesterday we went to Ikea, I had my eye lashes dyed so they're actually noticeable again, and then went to see Baby Driver which I enjoyed much more than I expected. Musically it really is something else, every single thing fitting to that perfect note, and of course the action was non-stop and great.
The ending though
When Baby got stopped on the bridge I just thought, this is it, yet another downer ending for a film and he's going to end up shot to death. But no, they surprised me and he got his happy ending. Which I'm glad about because all through the film he tried his best not to hurt people and was so obviously stuck in a trap impossible to get out of.
At some point this week I need to start to sort out the huge hall cupboard as they're coming to fit the new toilet and fusebox next week. The cupboard really is big, the size of a small box room, and as a result is stuffed full of stuff. It badly needs a good clean-out, but just the thought of starting is daunting. But, I really don't have a choice.
But not tonight though, because tonight I've Killjoys and the latest The Handmaid's Tale to watch, as well as the third Inn Keepers Chronicle's book to read.

I feel for you! Starting such a big task can feel almost impossible - you don't even know where to begin. At least it usually gets easier the more you get done. In any case, ALL the good luck!
I hope you'd a very enjoyable evening.

But also came out with some plates, bowls, new scissors and a cutlery set. Amazingly no candles this time. We also had delicious meatballs/veggie balls for dinner. I do like the Ikea cafe, and especially the little tray trolleys they have. They're so convenient, all restaurants should have them.
Yeah, I think about opening the door to the cupboard and want to sigh. But, it needs to be done, and should get easier the more stuff is thrown away. I know there's an old broken washing machine hidden away at the back, and Corey's old pushchair. Goodness knows what else.
I did. Both the shows were great and I actually read a bit fic too. It's been a while since I did that.

Date: 2017-07-10 12:04 pm (UTC)I agree. The thing is with nanna is I know she loves me totally, and yet will still say things like that without thinking. It's also surprised me at time what people have said about my weight loss. It's very noticeable now, and I get a lot of comments, which are lovely because people are meaning to be kind. But a few have said nice things and remarked how I'd been very overweight before. And it's not like I didn't know that.
