Hi,
Here goes for one day:- 1. Croissant - got it from other shop - 12p cheaper
- 2. Free cuppa x 2 or 3 - 'tis gonna be one of those days
- 3. Soup for lunch; bread from home
- 4. Leftovers for tea - OH made a fab roast dinner last night instead of getting take away :T
- 5. Suggested £5 each for bouquet for colleague…please don't let it cost more
- 6. Keeping an eye on groupon - looking for restaurant deal for bday and hairdressers
- 7. Check onepoll - but boo, have forgotten password so need to wait until I get home
- 8. Admire new tea cosy; changed avvy in celebration
- 9. Brought kindle to work - hopefully read at lunchtime
- 10. Trying to make foundation last another month - can buy more with bday money then
- 11. Sent email for voluntary work - saved a stamp
- 12. Yoga at home - use free code for online studio
I find I only do it when he's out too.
Pixie - fingers crossed for you at hospital. Enjoy your roast tonight!It's amazing the effect milk can have on you. I totally believe it, even if the docs are skeptical

Oh stitchy - I'm bad - have decided to keep it for myselfI had to try it on my teapot as I was sewing it up so I knew where to leave the holes and then it just kinda stayed there... And it took me way longer than I was expecting to knit it and sewing it up took for ever (mattress stitch on a curvey thing wasn't fun!) so I really don't think I'll ever do another. Also, then I thought how sad I'd be if I gave it away and it wasn't appreciated and it ended up in a charity bag... And then I had convinced myself enough just to keep it... :rotfl:
