    haha! One of our admin girls lives round the corner from me though - so I would soon be found out if I claimed being caught out by the weather, if she managed to get in on time (which she would!).

    Snow temporarily stopped - am off to do mystery shop.....

    Hugs to Surfbaby -we had the same thing too. My auntie who was in her eighties complained of a chest pain-it eased came back and she colapsed and died all in three minutes. I was alone with her which was pretty rough-I'd dropped in to have a cup of tea with her-yet despite the obvious symptoms they the authorities insisted on an autopsy which caused a lot of distress not just for the delay but the fact she was Jewish so should have been laid to rest by sundown the next day....Oh and then I managed to convince myself it wasn't a heart attack but she must have choked on the sandwich I had just made her. Those five days were awfully long. Bloody red tape -I know it has to be done but it really adds to the stress.

    That MS is instead of the run or yoga as it's snowing-so well worth doing Hypno :)

    Well I've done day 3 of the 28 days yoga book, yet again it's a case of not really wanting to do it beforehand, but realising how good it is afterwards.

    Also done some stomach exercises earlier, but need to do something more aerobic later to burn some calories.

    Hope your ms went well.

    M/S went well - was well worth the dash to avoid the snow showers.......I managed to pick up a fab coat for DS, which will save for his birthday - in the sale, a brand normally avoided due to cost......and after the amount I get reimbursed for the visit, will have cost me £10. So I am more than happy with that, as DS will be in due course, I am sure.

    I get paid £5 each for my visits (after expenses) tomorrow and Friday - so all in, the coat will be cost neutral from Mystery shopping this week :T And because I am doing them in my lunch hour, there is no petrol or other cost to take into account either.......hurrah!!

    That's fab - I got a bit slack with mystery shopping - I think if I could walk somewhere in my lunch hour I would be more inclined though so well done!
