| Still cold |
I ventured out this morning to yarmouth was going to walk but decided to take the car good job I did as it did start to rain but soon stopped after that. Waiting on another delivery to add to my ashton drake collection so looking forward to it hopefully it will be delivered tommorrow morning. Looking at the tracking status it is showing as reached the iow depot.
Bit dull today but I am quite warm in the flat. Flossy is enjoying her long naps again think she has got used to the washer dryer she doesn't seem to run away from it anymore. I have worked out how to set up the WiFi on it so all good to go.
I shall be on my way to southampton and guernsey soon will probably do a load of shopping but then again I may decide to save my money. Will be in Winchester soon too just for a daytrip. |

| Hopefully a better day today |
It is still dark the weather seems to have settled this morning. Hopefully it will be better today.Debating on what to do. Flossy has got the zooming this morning she has had her standoff at my bedroom door but I have reminded her that no matter how much she asks she is not going in there that room is out of bounds for her. She will have a mad half hour running in and out and then just curl up and go to sleep for the rest of the day.
Not long to go before Christmas am really looking forward to Christmas this year. |

| Boring day |
| It has been a day of boredom for me. I haven't my usual of going out for a walk or drive as the weather has been awful. It will probably be a lot better tommorrow. I am going to have my oven cleaned by an oven cleaning company I used to have all the chemicals to do it myself but I don't have a lot of storage to store the stuff. The oven isn't too bad but does smoke a bit when I put the grill on. Keep warm whatever you are doing and enjoy your weekend |

| Washing machine |
My washer dryer arrived at 2pm today and it only took a couple of minutes for them to install it. The guy turned it on tested it and then put the option onto drain and said to let the machine run for it's 4 minutes when it finishes it will clear the computer chip and the machine will be ready to use.
It has wi fi on it and it took me 20 minutes to work put how to open the door I have put one load of washing in it on the rapid wash and will dry the washing then will put the second load in. Flossy isn't too keen with it she just run off as soon as I put the machine on not sure why because she is used to the washing as my last one was quite noisy and this one is quiet |

| Christmas light tour |
| I went on the southern vectis Christmas lights tour. It was really nice. Couldn't really take many pics as it was dark though I did get a very nice one. There were too buses on the tour and we left Newport bus station at 6 30 and were back around 9 30. It was cold and there was rain but it was very enjoyable. |

| Busy day today |
| I had my hair done again today had the roots touched up and a small haircut to tidy it up. My hair grows so quick. Been to east cowes after the hairdressers and then into Newport to pick up a teal actifry. I used to have one before but it stopped working a couple of years after I had it. Saw this one for sale and arranged to go up to collect it was a bargain for £20. It is even posher than the one that had before. So its now home putting my feet up made a cuppa of tea and got the Christmas music channel on. |

| Nice and chilly this morning |
| It's a bit chilly this morning. Did my usual walk to yarmouth and back so wasn't too bad. I think I will stay in the rest of the day listening to Christmas music. I am having a Chinese takeaway tonight will get them to deliver it for me. I just fancy it as i haven't had a Chinese for about 4 months and as I am doing well with my weight I thought I better treat myself |

| My poor knee |
| I went out yesterday and tripped over should have been more careful have had a large cut on my knee. Felt it stinging a few times yesterday wasn't too bad until I got in the shower and that's when it really stung. I did have plasters but had to use 2 to cover up the cut. So this morning I drove out to the pharmacy and managed to get some extra large plaster to cut in my knee. |

| Busy busy busy |
Went to the beefeater in newport last nice and it was really lovely there the food was lovely and my stay at the traveling was perfect. Had breakfast there this morning. I had to pick something up from newport. I got there OK picked up the stuff and on my way to the car tripped up and fell. Didn't notice anything as just got a stinging pain. Went to rookley then made my way home and the traffic was awful. Got home Went to check my knee and there was a big cut on there. Have put a plaster on hopefully it will OK in a couple of days.
Flossy wasn't very impressed with me leaving her for the whole night after a few treats I think she has forgiven me |

| Dash cam fitted |
Now that it has stopped raining I went down to my car armed with my dash cam and set it on the windscreen and then with the cable tidy tool managed to hide the cable plugged it in the cigarette lighter. Did switch it on and it came on fine. The picture is very clear. I am really happy with my purchase have put the 2 stickers on my back windscreen stating that the car is protected with webcam. Will see how I get on when I go out driving again.
Felt a bit lazy and bored yesterday evening so decided that I am going to have my shopping delivered on Monday 2nd December. So went onto waitrose website and ordered some shopping. I chose a 4 hour slot gor delivery between 4pm and 8pm. I should get in email from waitrose tommorrow to let me know what time they will deliver. I should really stop getting bored snd stop feeling lazy as its just as easy gor me to drive to waitrose and when I am bored I spend money ,makes a change from me picking on food when I used to get bored. I am behaving myself with food these days.
I am pleased to say I only need to Lose 1.3lb before I get to my ideal weight. I guess that will be achieved by the end of this week |

| Dashcam |
I got the memory card for the dashcam yesterday but the dash cam arrived the day before I tried putting in the micro sd card I had but it wouldn't recognise the card so had to order another sd card from nextbase. I have been pleased with the service from them the dashcam was cheaper going direct to nextbase than to buy it from currys Halfords and argos. I also got 10% off my first order from them.
The dashcam is fully charged ready to be installed in the car i was planning on doing that first thing this morning when it got light but it's raining outside and I feel a bit cold so I am going to wait for the rain to stop before I go down to the car to put it in there.it should only take a couple of minutes as its only stick it on the windscreen and put the cable in the cigarette lighter and then tidy the cable away. |
