    Spendtastic today. Had my annual hair cut and colour. Farrier. Went on strike.

    Money 0/10 gave up wages for chalks of the future, as chalks of the past gave up theirs for me
    Health and fitness 7/10. Two hours walking at least. Didnt overeat.
    Family. 3/10. Dressed my 6 yo this morning while she kicked me.
    Work. 10/10 LOL

    Life gets a little easier after tomorrow.

    Did manage to snatch lunch in the park with DH. We work in different counties so this is rare.

    Not going to work sounds like a very good day at work :)

    Well done for sticking up for your principles.
