It was raining here yesterday so we had a quiet day in the house. It is looking a bit better today though so should get out in the garden.
It's always nice when things are tidied and looking good. x

Morning
Mindee hasn't turned up this morning so I'll just get on with the jobs I intended to do in the garden today. They are probably running late, not like I need to be anywhere
Emergency fund is sitting at £1000........woo hoo target hit
Holiday savings is sitting at £24.38
Plans for today is do the ironing and get it all put away
dig the cross trainer out of hubby's garage and get it set up in my shed so I have no excuse not to use it
Go steal my gran's lanwmower and get my grass cut as it's grew really quickly in 10 days
Put my buggy back together after I dismantled it to wash it, it washed up well
Pay money into he post office account that I made over the weekend.
So I have enough to amuse myself today.
Wrote down my Fitness and weight loss goals I need to bit the bullet and weigh myself on hubby's scales and remember they are out by 3 lbs compared to the boots scales I use. I need to get more workouts in hence why I'm digging out the cross trainer. So My aim is to be good with food as I can't stop eating the bad stuff (doesn't help that Abbie makes awesome cakes) which is cancelling out my workouts and it needs to stop. I'm upping my water intake as it's at zero at the minute.

Yeah they turned up half an hour late.......not like I'm going anywhere lol they are running late again today
Managed to complete 3.5 of the tasks I set yesterday
Get the ironing and get it all put away
dig the cross trainer out of hubby's garage and get it set up in my shed so I have no excuse not to use it
Go steal my gran's lawnmower and get my grass cut as it's grew really quickly in 10 days
Put my buggy back together after I dismantled it to wash it, it washed up well (still got the top section to scrub down and put back on
Pay money into he post office account that I made over the weekend.
So I'll finish off the tasks intended to do yesterday, it just went in so quick and I also got a workout in an hit 12000 steps well 13500 so I feel it was a productive day.
Today I need to nip into the post office and put money in my account, I had a Avon customer post a order and money through my door asking if i could place a online order for her which i as happy to do for her so I think I'm going to give those who placed a order through my online store during this difficult time a free gift in their orders when it all gets back to normal for supporting my business. Seems fair.
Also need to bleach the hallway floor today after work so it nice and clean for me painting the woodwork and shirting boards tomorrow as managed to get paint over the weekend thank goodness.
Transferred £7.60 towards the holiday fund, I have £31.98 in thereslowly but surely wins the race.
washing machine is on so will get this on the line so when Abbie gets up shes stripping her bed so want the washing machine empty for her then.
Will do another workout after I've finished work at 3pm as I always feel better after a workout then a shower....refreshed
Right off to get ready for wee one coming xx

That was a busy day. I am thinking of investing in a new fitness tracker in the future. Something I might save up for.
Busy day again for you. That is a lovely idea about the Avon. Do you have a link for your online store? X
