Life gets in the way...

  • Apologies for no update yesterday, I'm poorly so went to bed straight from work. Feeling just as bad today and hoping I can shake it off for the weekend!

    Made my PAD this morning of £1.50 by rounding down, other than that it has been a NSD for me :)

    I have realised that as pay day is Monday my wages will actually be accessible on Saturday... The only advantage of banking with this particular company! I can't work out if this is a good thing or if it will mean I will be tempted to have a spendy weekend... Hubby is working overtime so I will have spare time. Might eBay some stuff, that usually takes me a long time!

    Off to nurse my cold...

    Hope you're all well x

  • Thanks! That's what I was thinking, otherwise it's just going to prolong next month isn't it?

  • Thanks hun, I have been feeling under the weather for a few days now but making it into work so I don't have any wages deducted. It's nothing I can't deal with so a few lemsips throughout the day have helped me.

    My PAD was obviously not planned but it's such a good cause I felt I must contribute.

    I get paid tomorrow, except I don't really and it's actually Monday, I have agreed to spend the day with my sister who has just landed a new job so I am glad I still have funds available for the weekend x

    Mot and vets bills loom for Monday so we will see what happens there... Savings pot will be diminished I think!

    Not quite as positive as my usual self and for that I can only apologise, I'm poorly lol

  • Hi hunny, you still sound positive even if you are still feeling under the weather.

    Hope the vets bill and the mot bill are a fraction of what you're expecting. If you can accommodate them out the saving pots then that's a huge achievement, so fingers crossed.


    Hope your feeling brighter and you have a lovely time with your sister xx

  • Hi sweets, I am still very poorly with this cold, it feels more like flu as it's aching in all my bones :(

    At least I am off on Monday so have a nice long weekend. Managed to pop out with my sister this morning and did some charity shop bargain hunting :) was good x

  • Hi hunny.

    Hope your feeling a bit brighter this morning and it's not getting you down too much. A couple of days curled up on the sofa might be needed.

    Take care

    Xx

  • You're right about the rest, I have not had much sleep and it seems to be getting worse rather than better :(

    More medication needed I think!

  • Night nurse always works well for me. If nothing else it guarantees a good nights sleep. Xx
