Good morning all and special 
to all with sadness and worries.
I loved being with the DDs and GC but oddly was quite happy to come home and be “in control” of my own life. I know they mean well but I have just grown used to coping on my own and making my own decisions! A phone call from my near neighbour and probably best friend saying she had missed me and was glad to see my lights on again also made me feel welcomed.
Collected Rosie from kennels where she has enjoyed twice daily play with the other dogs in the field that they have. I have never seen any of my dogs quite so muddy! Mostly dried on but she was a totally different colour! I am not sure whether to just wait until it brushes out or rubs off or to try to bath her as it’s not really the weather for it.
All the driving -Norfolk and back, then Birmingham and home again - had left me somewhat wiped out despite easy traffic and both the dog and I slept through until after 7.
I now have to finish watching “Their Finest” for todays film studies - a lovely film with great period detail and superb dialogue.
So it’s back to normal, after a fashion , and I suppose I ought to try to shift some of the lbs I am bound to have gained. I wish it was easy as Mick seems to suggest in his OP but I think it will take more than the bus to Bicester or even Buckingham 
Good Morning All x.
A sort of half bright day still damp and mild.
Still laughing to myself at Fanny'sFunnies, just what's needed.
Changed the bedding ready for the machine now. Regardless of the time of year some things still have to be done

If only to shake-off the sluggishness.
I love hearing about everyone's doings. I'm still coping with the little bedroom TV as I rather think that it was a Bank Holiday yesterday so a bit futile ringing the aerial man. First of all I'll have to ring the bank ( if they're open ) and do a transfer as I don't keep a large amount in my current account unless I have a large purchase looming, then I'll see if there's any joy with the aerials.
Had an enjoyable film-watching day yesterday, old repeats but good ones in their day. " Suspicion" to start with then "Evil Under the Sun" and finally " Murder on the Orient Express ".
Preparing a salad for today so will be doing my own potato salad and salad dressing. It'll make a nice change from all the cooked meals I've had these last few days, then I'll polish off some more chocs.
I can't believe it was a week ago when I was busy loading up in M&S's, and I haven't seen a soul since. Spoken on the phone of course but not physically seen anyone. Can't be helped with these strange times, but the main thing is that I've remained well, thank goodness.
I wish everyone else well too and to hope you enjoy your day.Take care when travelling, stay safe and look after yourselves xx
