Now go phone the plumber :rotfl:Must use my stash up!0 -
Gosh KC! Glad he's apologised for talking to you like that - whatever he might think about your relationship with your ex-friend and how you've dealt with it, there's really no need to be rude! Hope the rest of today is calmer xx0

Completely forgot
:rotfl: Thank you KnitWitch, appreciated :A
Just had an early lunch, having a cuppa, washing is out on the line, fridge is nearly defrosted, clothes are now organised to kondo - all tops in whitewood wardrobe, everything else in built in wardrobe. Kondoing will be done another time. Never, ever realised how unorganised my clothes were :eek::p:rotfl:Three grotty hangars thrown, 2 of them into recycling.
Finishing things is my new mantra - wardrobes are now repacked, yes, but the washing must be dried, the fridge freezer must be switched on again, email to partner must be done, beans that were soaking overnight must be cooked (and definitely a long hot shower to be had after that lot).
Then I'll call the plumber - to be honest, the kitchen sink being out of action is just like camping

A bit of transference there I think.

Not doing anything I don't want to for the rest of the day, or thinking too much - no writing, nothing. I *did* cook some browniesand I may have opened a tin of chestnut puree to act as a sauce :j
This emoji says it all about this site: :A:A:A thank you.

Wrestling the thread back onto topic
I now have 1830 points in my yougov account, and when I experimented today with a Nectar survey, it gave me some points! Only 20 :eek: so I don't think I'll bother again, even for me its not really worthwhile, but it was a little bit interesting
I also have 1892 Eon points - they can become almost £20 of Bonus bond vouchers, which I can spend at Iceland etc - thats good! Thats 80% of a week's food shopping!2023: the year I get to buy a car0 -

I try to do the surveys as soon as I see them, and now that some are getting more and more detailed, try not to overthink it, which is a failing of mine in many arenassmallholdingsister wrote: »Sending you virtual love and support.
Thank you
Also a metaphorical poo on partner's head for trying to stomp over your boundaries.xxxI'm still at the overthinking stage
but doing it privately now I've dealt with the shock ... I'm working with clients from midday to 3.30, and that has to take precedence over everything. And yougov haven't sent me anything today
so I'll have a play round here, and then get to work.
Oh, pension update!
- today is my last paid work this week, so today is the end of week 21 in the retirement countdown :j
- savings are tax free :j thats going to help.
- must do lots of research about annuity vs drawdown, I'd no idea the choices to be made. The news wasn't kidding when they said the market had opened up.
Stuff like my blog updates (nothing in March :eek:), banking, buying cards to send, all have to wait till tomorrow.2023: the year I get to buy a car0
