Comments

            Today was busy with work and I'm very tired but hasve managed:
*not to buy starbuccks
*onepoll and V opps surveys filled out - probably a total of 50p but every little helps.
*going to buy tomatoes and then cook out of data asparagus with them for dinner
Off to check asparagus before I buy toms!Debt at highest: £8k. Debt Free 31/12/2009. Original MFD May 2036, MF Dec 2018.0 -

Mini MSE list for me today
* check online bank - yep, much good did it do me, lol!
* transfer Amazon payment if it's arrived - nope, but shouldn't be too long
* PhD all day - yes, actually got quite a lot done!
* NSD - er, no, but only bought fruit
* washing done and hung outside - done but hung inside cos it went cold and dark
* adjust signature after paying for breakdown cover yesterday - yep, looking good! Have enough between the two of us for MOT to be £130 now so not bad!
* eat properly - slimming world this evening (pre paid) and I want to have lost 1.5lbs! (not that today will make much difference, but I can avoid making it worse!) - just been and I've lost 2lbs!! Yippee!
Also...
* posted photos back to Dad (second class)
* posted old magnetic slimming world menu cards to Mum (second class)
* posted transcribing CDs back to friend
* bought 2 bags of reduced watercress (and ate most of one of them)
* was very brave and requested ex boss pay me by bank transfer rather than cheque - even after she informed me she'd already posted it (it still hasn't arrived - and neither has the bank transfer...
So all in all, a good cheery day! (although slightly hormonal and grumpy - still managed to get a fair bit done).
Isn't it good to pop back in and cross things off the list at the end of the day?? Makes me really feel like I achieved something! :rotfl:
