Today I have:
-Checked online banking. Already concerned about next months budget, and its not even pay day til Friday!
- Brought sandwiches from home
- Charged phone on the train
- Free coffee at work

Have a great day everyone.

• Made HM lemon curd - dead easy and tasty - having it as snack with oatcakes - like mini cheesecake type thing
• Free cuppa in work x2
• Arranged free collection instead of going to PO with parcel for return

• Look into why dehumidifier might not be working

La escocesa - Just catching up on yesterday's thread & I don't think I'll be paying for the yoga if they only hold 6 videos at a time! It's just not worth it there must be better out there. Did you find out about your payrise? We have to wait until July for that, but I swear bonus time is soon...*fingers crossed*

I saw another online studio based in Canada. I follow the founder guy on twitter and he sent me a code for 50% off. Might look into that and see if it's worthwhile. Or I'll just use my books - probably easiest after all that!

I was wondering, are there any good youtube videos? That's free then

Hi everyone.
Today:
1. Kept up with my diary
2. Brought in a packed lunch to work
3. Brought limited funds with me if I do *absolutely* need to buy something.
4. Am well stocked with coffee at work (although I forgot to buy milk powder the other day - therefore need to ration for the rest of the week/ drink black).
5. Travelled on my prepaid travelcard (so nothing to pay here!).
6. Avoided buying a coffee this morning.
7. Charged phone at work.

I believe a NSD is possible!

Happy Tuesday lovely Small thing-ers!

I keep thinking it is Wednesday and actually just nearly typed happy thursday!

I'm still feeling quite chipper, though quite sluggish today. I thought my cold had gone this morning but I'm still quite sniffly and coughing a lot. I'm keeping warm with lots of mugs of coffee and going to sit and crochet at lunch for a bit.

Today I have/will:

-walked to work
-will walk home
-breakfast at home
-bought lunch with me
-hoping for a NSD (it'll be number 6 if I do)
-tea will be spuds we didn't have last night (we had chilli at our friends house instead)
-coffee from the kitchen rather than the canteen (much nicer and free, well, sort of, we buy the coffee and milk between us)
-bought a couple of extra yoghurts for my lunch as was a bit hungry yesterday
-research craft business names
-going to start making a list of what is in storecupboard and freezer/fridge - will start using stuff up pre move, i don't fancy carting half empty packets around!

Can't think of much else, have a good one gang xx

Afternoon folks , interesting times at work but my day off today , yippee.

So far I have:

• Walked to town and back
• heating off so far
• not MSE but ordered prescription sunnies, chose a cheaper frame than I would have before

To do :

• sort out meal from freezer went to bed and forgot - DD went to coop for meatballs instead
• list more items too tired now , probably at the weekend
• ring scottish power who want to up my dd by £30 after only 2 readings - and that was the winter !they only do email , so emailed them an articulate response
• get more stuff ready for posting bit later on , hopefully dd will post tommorow
• sort out cc payments one set up need to do other next
• re organise big bedroom cupboard done , about 4 bin liners of old towels and linen removed
• look on freebies board requested some facial wash
• do some comps just done a few

Need to have a good tidy up too !!!

Exhausted , did a big walk as part of my 'get my fitness back' and was exhausted, spent 2 hours in bed as a result . On a bright note a few more broken electricals have sold on ebay . In the last month I have made enough to buy DD a new orthopaedic double mattress and am halfway toward a new bed for myself. Suupa Duupa !

• Most important? I have come back here. I need my focus back. I need somewhere to write stuff down and where other people support and understand

The rest of the day:
