Today is a bit of a strange day, have to drive fifty mins either way, to sort out a presentation for my counselling course, don't know how long that could go on for, so it could be ages or only a short while, so it really does depend on how much of my time is taken up with that.
So today i will/have
-worked on my website and made some changes/improvements to it.
-Keep heating off for as long as poss
-Continue to work on getting higher up the search engines!!
-I will do two mystery shops today, one is in the town i am having to drive too, so at least my petrol will be covered!!
-Do mystery shopping reports later
-Go to halfords and plead being an unknowing woman so that they can help me find the replacement bulb i need for my car headlight, bit of a pain, but at least my fella will fit it!!
-Write up notes for key concepts
-Work on massage case studies for 3rd case study
-Work on case study for number 2 case study
-Pack bag for going away tomorrow
-Sort through emails
-Do any surveys i receive
-Look for mystery shops
-Check ebay for oils
-check ebay for trainers
-Check online banking
-Sort out finances for going away so i know how much i have available to spend
-Begin writing up job lot items to list on ebay
-Go and work on counselling presentation
Have a good day everyone and will catch up with you all later.

-Have scanned shopping with shop and scanner
-Have decided on a great present for myself for in two years when i pass my counselling course, i am going to go on holiday to South Africa and go cage diving, in order to swim with the sharks. Will be an expensive holiday, but am going to use my payment a pay pig to help make some of the money. Plus i will be arranging it myself so will be doing lots of researching it and finding the best deals. Very excited, love sharks!!:j Live on £4500, £2531/£4500:T 101 in 1001 (52/101):j:beer::j
