Pay Off Before Lay Off!

:wave:

Today I did:

* work
* more work
* drank 4 litres of herb teas and water (and had a cheeky coffee)
* 6727 steps on pedometer (plus some cos I forgot to put it on first thing)!

Today I didn't:

* successfully speak to door man
* successfully speak to consultant or his secretary

MFW actions: still waiting for this months mortgage statement to come through, am armed with spreadsheet, calculator and an urge to update signature towards April's mini goal! Spendy day though as have started making purchases for Mr Hbbb's birthday next week!

Grey Cloud:

* As above, still haven't had conversation with consultant who asked me to phone him to discuss "condition" but got letter from GP today asking similar and for me to also make an appointment to see nurse for immunisations?
Phoned surgery but GP is away till next Tues. Apparently she'll ring me then and I'll need to see nurse after that! Curiouser and curiouser!

* My big girl's limping after today's romp in park, poor old thing forgets she's not as young as she was when she races the boy for the ball! Nowt serious I don't think, but will keep a close eye.

* Can't work my new phone!

Silver linings: sunshine all day and happy dog walk (apart from resulting limp, of course)

Note to Tilly: I thought of you when preparing for said walk, re: your upping the pace suggestion, so today I wore .... my trainers instead of my boots! Does that mean business or what? actually, perhaps that explains poor doggy burn-out?

Daily Declutter: Did 15 in 15 with charity bag, which should be picked up Fri, so total now into the first 100 ... 102 / 365!

Simple pleasures: weighing self each morning and putting it into free app which makes a little graph ... This is ridiculously pleasing to me (and not just because the graph shows a steady decrease at the mo)!

Hope you're all well! X

One day our kitty will come, eh P*M

I'm counting down the days! If all else fails I'm off to see the Wizard of Oz and he'll sort it for me.

Doggies sat nicely to do this again today so Mr Hbbb could see (to cheer him up of course). I think he was impressed, it's so hard to tell!

Lol! Talking of puppy tricks, one of my favourites with our collie was to perch a small bone-shaped biscuit on his nose and make him sit still with it on there, his face was priceless! As soon as I shouted "go!" he'd flip it and catch it in his mouth, I may or may not have numerous cross-eyed photos of him sitting there with tiny bonios on his nose, it never really stopped being funny. :rotfl:

Today I didn't: exactly the same as yesterday! Hair-wise I could body-double for Kate Bush on her forthcoming tour.

:rotfl: If I don't get tickets, Hbbb, you can just do a private concert for me.

Great decluttering! :T

Hey HBB just flying through when I have a wee min

Well done on the weight loss and keep up the walking ( my fave excercise )

Hope you get to the bottom of the consultant etc shortly as well to put your mind at ease if nothing else

Wow...all sounding great except for poor doggy limp which I hope is nothing serious. Great decluttering.

I really must start doing these little diary lists - are all the smileys in the advanced bit?

Doggy limp is well on the mend, thanks Watty ...in fact, the dogs are proving to be the fittest things in the house! x

Hi Elantan, many thanks - am trying to stick to a daily walk of sorts where possible. I'm desperate for the longer evenings as it will really help! x

Aww, you must miss him so! I've tried this with the boy ... he just doesn't get the principle of why on earth a biscuit would be put on his nose!

... You haven't heard me sing P*M!


Great decluttering! :T

:wave:

The big question is did you manage to get tickets P*M? The news said they sold out in 15 mins!

Sorry for slack posting, mad couple of days ...

MFW actions: one NSD but a spendy day towards Mr. Hbbb's birthday next week. Waiting for end of month figure for mortgage, but signs looking good for mini-goal!

Grey Clouds:

Mr. Hbbb, long story short ... continued illness all week, got sent home from work when he tried to go back, then bad night resulting in unconsciousness in bathroom, dented his head on his way to the floor, so all day in A & E today. Home now, sad looking head, but chipper in himself. Follow up with GP to be had for a few more checks.

Silver linings: could have been soooo much worse!

Uni work hasn't started yet. two days ago this would have been in the grey clouds section, but all in all at the back end of this week I think it's just as well I haven't heard from them! Will chase all concerned next week.

Daily Declutter: has fallen to the way-side last couple of days, will pick up with this tomorrow (must do some housework around here)!

Simple pleasures:

* Gift of homemade tea bread from a happy client
* Offer for more, regular work from another client
* Faithful hounds
* Having the man safely back home

Will try to catch up with diaries over the weekend. Hope everyone else is OK and looking forward to a lovely light evening on Sunday ... I cannot wait! Happy weekend all x
