Cool I'll have a look at that, I imagine it's something my Mum would be interested in too.

Thanks

Finished the stitching, got told off when I was doing the detail on the hat as the chart said as it wouldn't be the right colour for the button pattern....so did as I was told for a change. Just trying to remember my password to the pic hosting site to get it on here.

Went to Mr S on my way back from the flat to pick up some salad to go with dinner and came out having spent £37 on clothes in the sale, but I did need some more smart work trousers for future interviews, and some new bras, couldn't see any knickers I liked so will probably have to have a trip in to town before work one day next week. I did however spend £3 on food....

Kindle may have worked its way up to 3125 ebooks this afternoon too. Whoops.

Hehe, 3125 books will keep you going!!

Sometimes we all need to spend on work clothes, I'm lucky I can wear jeans in the office I work in. I don't very often but it's a nice option and means a home/work wardrobe in one.

Good luck finishing the download

At the moment I don't need to spend on work clothes, we get a uniform given to us and can exchange things when they get worn out or stop fitting - I swopped my work trousers a few months ago as they were getting too big and a little bit delicate at the seams, lol. But if I want to get away from the job I have I will need smart clothes for interviews, the last time I had to wear smart work clothes was about 4 years ago now so while some should still fit it's all looking a bit battered but theres no point spending alot on things like that as it'll be fine to wear at work just not smart enough for interviews.

Todays plans involve getting dressed at some point to go for a run - mapped out last night at silly am when I couldn't sleep, and get the hand blender out of the car to turn the chunks of potato and parsnip in the slow cooker in to a soup for lunch/early dinner.

sounds good, impressed with the run.... you healthy person you!

It's still planned...getting up off the sofa is proving difficult! And if I am going to do that route I need to go fairly soon before it starts getting dark as its along a river path I'm not familiar with so have no idea what the surface will be like. If I do go the lazy option I can possibly force myself to run a 1.2mile route in the dark around the local roads but going off my recent methods of avoiding it I won't bother at all in favour of sitting around eating junk food.

Hmmm as I've never run anywhere for fun in my life this may not be motivational logic, but if you go for a run now will you feel better about eating the junk food later?

Nope because I'll have wasted valuable reading time....

Plus I hate running but its been the best way to keep me losing weight, healthy eating can only do so much and my idea of healthy will never win me any awards from nutrition experts.:D

hehe, I have to say running has never been top of my list, I did dance a few years ago, but the classes got expensive.
