    Hello hello :hello:

    I’m a busy bee:
    - Won £57 in a comp at work :T
    - Got allocated 4 x £3.50 mystery shops, bringing total to £24 this month
    - Food from stores – not shopping!!
    - Voluntary work – good for ol’ CV and CPD
    - Went to cinema with club card vouchers :cool:
    - Taking refillable water bottle to yoga – saved about £100 a year by buying this I’m sure!
    - Checked banking – last bills have come out. Roll on payday a week tomorrow…
    - Working from home tomorrow – little bit more of a saving
    - Lesson planning for tomorrow’s yoga class

    Catch up soon y’all xx

    This morning started very shakily for me after another playground incident with another mum (the same one, who likes to treat me like crap/talk about me) but after an initial wobble I have decided its her problem not mine and I am not going to change the person I am (there is only this particular mum who has a problem with me and all because I kept asking for something that was mine to be returned, this was over a year ago). So today I have also managed to

    Check plants/seeds
    Input Cokezone Codes
    Stashed another comp win away for (Christmas) :shhh:
    2 x Washing
    Paid cheques into Bank
    Emptied LO's money box & banked
    Popped to library
    Finally signed up to Adpoints (and earnt 339 points - wow) - massive thanks to ally :T

    Think that may be enough for today, lol. Night all
