Squizz's Fizzy Diary

redsquirrel80

Thank you

I decided that an electronic calendar was probably better for me than a paper one, so I've gone for a Google one.

Realised that I've accumulated quite a few Groupon vouchers for massages etc, so I've just been through and noted all the expiry dates so I make sure I use them. Got two for the same place which need to be used by the end of January - one for a Tui Na massage (Chinese thing which look rather vigorous!) and one for a pedicure where they use those little fish to nibble off the dead skin :eek: The place is really near work so going to pop down at lunchtime tomorrow and try to book them both for lunchtimes next week.

As I was saying a while back, I am a bit lacking in time to myself, so think this will be a good way to chill out. I also need to figure out how to fit in some time for de-stressing meditation etc.

Just enrolled on a load of courses at work (day/ half-day things) - including Positive Influencing Skills, Mind Mapping, Prioritising and Time Management, Stress Management, Relaxation (they're doing a month of weekly sessions in November), and some more computing things.

Thats the thing about vouchers - you have to use them! I'm glad you've booked them - and have a nice birthday evening tonight (um, you've left by now ... anyway, the positive vibes are there!)

Not booked yet, that's today's mission! I also have to take some books back to the library, get another couple out, post Mr S's grandma's birthday card, and try to finish off my mentoring portfolio - shame there is work getting in the way really

Had a lovely evening - Mr S cooked and we had cava.. feel a little bit, er, dehydrated this morning

Oh I *love* cava! Excellent evening, excellent

Erm, you're taking over sending Mr Squizz's cards? Thats the thin end of the wedge, you know!

Lol.. no, he bought and wrote it, it's just that he's in London for work today and won't get a chance to post it. There is no way I am taking over his present/ card duties, even if he does always leave them worryingly till the last minute!

What is Groupon? I'm not living up to my mse credentials to know nothing about it?

Not sure if I'd be keen on the fishes nibbling though.

Sounds good to me then

**KC heaves a sigh of relief, tho realises quite how nosy this all sounds **

http://www.groupon.co.uk/ - you get daily deals for vouchers for specific cities, and some that are nationwide too.

Isn't that what diaries are for?

I am never going to be one of those women who does all the organising for their partner/ family - I have tendencies to be like that, mainly because it drives me a bit mad when people leave things till the last minute (e.g. we decide to do something, I want to organise it NOW, book tickets or whatever, whereas Mr S will leave it a few days, have a look, think about it, go back a couple of days later for another look...) but it is good for me to attempt to be patient.. plus I wouldn't want to suddenly end up doing everything, although I can't see that happening because I quite often offer to do things and he won't let me.. OK, rambling now...

Thanks - Sounds like it's worth signing up for, just got to work out which city!
