Making chicken feed of my mortgage

muddywhitechicken

Thank you

Still 5 days to pay day... CC card bills are in and MUCH smaller than normal so I should be able to make a big OP next month as well :T

I spent yesterday afternoon gardening and yesterday evening sowing seeds - very relaxing

My bad luck with the colour of flowers continues though... the expensive orange tulips I bought are actually pink or white :doh:

Today's plans are:

Chub club
Garden centre
More gardening
[STRIKE]Housework[/STRIKE] Upload holiday photos (when it's raining!)

Fab overpayment MWC. It's a bit drizzly here today but this time last week the garden was my priority. Hope chub club was a success.

It was!!! I reached a milestone - 25 lbs lost since I joined :j

The sun is shining at the moment :cool: but it's forecast to rain later this afternoon

I've treated myself to a new fancy-pants spray nozzle (with nano-bubble technology ) for my hosepipe - £29.99 RRP, I paid £3.99 in HB :money:

Awesome! Well done!

I'm referring to your weightloss; not the super duper spray!

Although the all-singing, all-dancimg nozzle was a mighty bargainatious purchase and does deserve its own 'well done' too!

Great result at chub club. Are you still keeping up your healthy habits, drinking water, body brushing etc?

I agree :j

Yes, I'm still drinking water (better on weekdays than at weekends) and dry body brushing every day (even on holiday!). I didn't do so well with the fitbit steps last week - I need to make sure I go for a walk every evening this week. I can't remember if I set myself a good habit for May :think: I think it will need to be "look after my hands/nails" - wear gloves when washing up/cleaning/gardening, use hand cream, cuticle cream etc.

We had a productive afternoon in the garden yesterday: Mr MWC topped up the raised beds with compost from the hot bin and planted potatoes in bags; I weeded a gazillion sycamore seedlings, did some planting and generally pottered

Mr MWC fed me well yesterday :drool: roasted fennel & quinoa crunch salad for lunch and roasted garlic & cauliflower pasta with walnuts for dinner. Today he is attempting to recreate Rainbow Cafe's Shepherdess Pie :kisses3:
