Still lovely and warm, have found a bottle of pink Cava in the fridge. We are now going to look at the garden from a horizontal position to see if anything is growing at the moment.
May just watch the ants though. Its good to have purpose in life:D:D stay wonky

I got my incremental pay rise this month :j:T
A whole 30p per hour more :rolleyes: - before tax :eek:
OK, I have £680 salary this month to play with. Well, not so much play, rather wring my hands with despair, but it will be fine.
I really need to buy some contact lenses, I only have 2 or 3 old prescription ones left. I think I'll use my new CC for some, that will be around £30 which I can then pay off next month and it will trigger the free flights voucher.
One of my shares is showing an £80-£100 profit today. I am tempted to pull the profit again, I think I'll wait until tomorrow to see if it goes up a bit more. I know very little about shares so not sure if it's the right thing to do, but I think if they are going to dip, they do it in the afternoon so I'll wait until tomorrow and see."Stay Wonky":D

make sure you check out the forums for the cheapest deal though. I know probably a lot of your cost is because of your prescription though:p:heartpulsOnce a Flylady, always a Flylady:heartpuls0 -
tbh jinks, lenses are the same price whatever the strength, I buy the fortnightly ones and usually pay around £28 for 6 pairs and wear them for 3 weeks or so rather than the fortnight. The only problem I have is because they are a high prescription they sometimes aren't readily available and I've had them arrive from all over the world - Canada, Sweden, the USA! I'll definitely do a quick scan of the boards. I think I used Lensway last time.
