Do you think Mr SA has turned to spending for something to fill his time since he's not working?

No SSG he's always been the same. He was worse when he was working that's how we got into debt, he's always been a big fan of bunging it on the credit card.
Tempted by Mr M sending me £10 of £100 spend, added more to my weekly shop than I usually would, especially as I get 10% staff discount courtesy of DD. However, for £83 have got loads and next week's bill should a lot cheaper. One thing I added was a veg box for £5 which is absolutely brilliant - onions, potatoes, swede, leeks, courgettes, cabbage and cauliflower - all really fresh and great quality, would get one again. Hark at me getting excited about a box of veg - rock 'n roll

I used to have the organic veg boxes delivered, they used to leave them outside in a black plastic sack sweating all day. Then there was the excess of beetroot - so stopped having them. Anyway I'm still admiring this box

Gym at lunchtime today
Going to brave the scales at WW tomorrow, can't keep putting it off
Mr SA has made a start on stripping the bedroom, he's done one wall. Between us we should get it done this weekend. DD hasn't done her room, didn't think she would - her room can go to the back of the queue if she can't be bothered.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)0 -
Quite right re DD's room.
Did you ever discover more about the mystery man?
