Hey thank you Ellidee I've told it to listen

Just paid a wadge off the cards

£500 to each

Just as well I'm having a wee lie down.

starnac

Wow that's a lot!!

Think you best need a lie down after that!

Karmacat

Blimey that is a lot! Congratulations :j

I'm glad Mr RG is there to look after you, you really don't sound good. I'm glad you're posting, mind, but bear in mind that chopping wood when you're this ill ... mmm .... :huh: not if you feel ill enough to be in your pjs at 5pm :kisses3:

Well done on letting plant pots go! And of course you don't let window boxes and seed trays go - my big window box, I must have had it for nearly 30 years :rotfl::o:rotfl::o:rotfl::o

Well I don't like to have any money in my account for too long as I'll only spend it on bread and flowers.

And, to be fair £600 of it was directly from work expenses so I needed to make sure that went straight to the offending card so my own actual payment was quite a bit smaller.

I also paid penguin face £100 so its all slowly coming down.

I'm terrified I'll have too much debt when I go so I do need to put every spare penny to it before the wages stop.

But yes, lying down helps!

The cards need a battering otherwise I'll be stressed when I move so I do need the focus of here - thank you all for helping me.

The wood chopping is well assisted by electicity but makes a big difference in the house (also dries the washing) and makes life cosy. I could buy wood as today I was slowly tempted but 10 minutes of chopping makes a difference. I promise i had proper gear on including a dust mask and took it easy. Mr RG needs a lovely fire and he's well minded enough NOT to interfere with my wood piles.

PJ's went on less shyly after some hard labour and a hot shower although I'm not sure the sawdust that went down the plug hole was very good for the drain:eek:

I don't know what it is about seed trays - I just cannae let them go and they are expensive. I'm quite attached to mine.

As I am my window boxes from the former homestead with the million windowsills full of tomatoes and basil.

One day they will be full again but the pots yup I'm happy to lose them as I know any good garden centre will have a stack outside somewhere to be recycled to folks home

And if I feel like this tomorrow I think I'm awa' tae the dr's I'm wiped out.

And, as Cheery says, if I'm on the sofa under a duvet in my jimmyjams - I can't spend anything can I?

I've already blown 57.65/100 on shopping this month (well some of that was me, some the troups when I was crookly in bed), so I'll have to mind on and take those spends a bit easy too as I don't want to go over 100 this month if I can.

I forgot to say I landed a free neep and 5 tatties today when I popped into work.

I don't know why the bag was handed to me, perhaps I looked a bit neep-less

Working p/t in an agri department has rather odd perks at times, not that I'm complaining a neep is a neep in anyone's book. And it did make me smile, it was nice to be handed some vegetable loot. I think its leftover from a burns supper - I didn't think to ask (too busy snatching and saying thank you)

Cheery_Daff

:j :j to vegetable loot :j :j What fun!

Poorly sickness does NOT sound fun though, pah! Hope you're feeling on top of things soon lass. JPJs and fires and snoozing hounds sound perfect for this evening xx
