Hello All,
Today I have brought packed lunches for myself and my boyfriend for work, made a flask of coffee for him and brought in 2 cans each from a multipack. I am feeling good after a week of eating rubbish on holiday last week!
I have done a couple of surveys so far and checked my online banking. I was very lucky and won £450 on the lottery at the weekend :j (I had 3 hotpicks) so I checked and it has cleared in my account so I am just sitting working out what I am going to pay with it and then I will transfer it over.
And then I should really think about working since I am in the office after all ;-) Have a good day everyone.
