Pay Off Before Lay Off!

:wave:

And so to Friday ...

MFW actions:

* NSD
* After more to and fro emailing, student money finally safely received!
* A bit of bank shuffling and spreadsheet shenanigans later, MOP of £133 made.

SMASH day 41 / 100 = £ 1,983 / £ 3,000
I know, ridiculous figure, will be looking to TT that into a nice round number over the weekend!

Grey Clouds:

Slipped my bare feet into Mr Hbbb's boots by back door, to go up garden and take snacks to chooks, without noticing dozy old wasp in boots. Now have evil sting on foot to match mozzie bites of yore!

Silver Lining:

Students are turning out fine, Mr. Hbbb has had a better day after ducking and diving low flying boss bullets in his direction all week.

Daily declutter:

Another small and saggy bra hit the bin, so 251 / 365. Mum should be popping round to claim boot sale box tomorrow.

Simple pleasures:

* Home made pizzas and homegrown salads for dinner, students very happy with it and all pretty low cost!
* Lemon and ginger tea on a cold wet day
* Spreadsheet shuffle
* That Friday night feeling!

Hope everyone's doing Ok. Happy weekend! x

Thank you! Last third will be the hardest I think as still chasing for confirmed booking of students for August, although do still have some uni pay to come which will go straight into MOP!

Ta Watty, if you think it's funny hearing about it, you should hear the singing! :rotfl: It works though!

Happy weekend to you!

Very bad night's sleep, so feel a list coming on today:

* Students ... Double lunch as they are in London, give cooked breakfast and send them off in manner of Ma Larkin or such.Done, all good, they even washed up after themselves!
* Scrub henhouse Well, took bally ages as I now have 5 of them involved in quality control!
* Rescue lettuce plants from slug invasion Mr Hbbb helped with this due to unanticipated delays to hen house efforts. He also sorted my squashes for me (had to abandon them as no flowers at all, so think they were scuppered seeds as I used the from a SM squash)
* Cuppa with mum ... two cuppas, a carrot cake and biscuits courtesy of Spanish student later ... but I forgot to give her the bootsale box. Never mind, there's always next week!
* 30 mins decluttering in garage including knocking nails into walls to hang stuff ... I like doing that!
* 30 mins decluttering in workroom shocking amount still to be done though!
* Revise meal plan for week now I know more about student schedule and their food likes / dislikes! Resurrected my Kitchen Revolution cookbook for assistance and now remember why I like it so much.
... and walk pooches at some point!

Added in to do: half hour money stuff as statement and another client payment have arrived.


Edit: done so far, now a bit tired after early morn so am doing my money stuff as a fun slant on the day whilst Mr. Hbbb pops to L1dl for stuff for student packed lunches and usual bargains!
Hope everyone has a good one x

Just popped in to say Mr GG guessed your technique as well. But did crack up when I told him what you sing :rotfl:.

I was a bit poorly one eve so Mr. Hbbb offered to put chooks to bed. He grumbled when I insisted he stick to the bedtime routine but apparently gave them a rendition of "bird on a wire" :rotfl:

Are you guys secret pet-whisperers or great guessers?

How's your foot? The thought of stepping on a wasp makes me wince!
