Thanks Hidden - hope you have a lovely weekend too
I always find it amazing how much of a difference a masseur or osteo can make!
Another small OP of £3 made this morning. Mortgage balance is now below £78K for the first time :j

Good afternoon
Had a lovely day with my visitors yesterday. Place seems a bit empty today now they have gone.
Having a low key relaxed day today and just pottering around the house. Did nip out earlier for some bread rolls and milk...and was surprised at how quiet it was. Think everyone else must be away!
My side table has arrived and now that it's in place, I'm really happy with it. Quite amazing how even a small change can make such a difference.
I'm finding it hard to resist spending temptation at the moment...and having to be very stern with myself so I don't undo all my hard work with a few moments of impulse/madness.
Hope everyone is having a lovely Sunday

We're trying to be extra careful on the spending front as we've been having a bit of a splurge.
Apart from the supermarket for food, we're not going to buy anymore 'things' this month, the only money we will spend is if we go out for a day, for trains or coffee.
i agree that small changes make a big difference to the house. We painted a couple of chairs in the spare bedroom when we decorated recently, and together with a couple of cheap cushions, it looks great - I keep going in to have a look, I'm that pleased!Early retired - 18th December 2014

Had a quiet but happy day pottering around at home. Trying not to let the 'work tomorrow blues' catch up with me now
Looking forward to bank accounts updating tomorrow so I can do the monthly figures update.0 -
Happy bank account updating day BW! :money: I hope today hasn't been too stressful for you.
Your massage sounds good, I've been suffering with tension in my neck and shoulders and was considering going for a massage - think you've helped to make my mind up.
Hump day tomorrow!By mid-day you'll be half way to the weekend.

MG - I think you should definitely go - after all it's important to look after yourself
I've had another rubbish day at work. There is a total lack of support by the new management and it's so frustrating
In brighter news, I was cheered up no end to receive an email to tell me I'd won a £10 Am@zon voucher in a prize draw :T Already added to my account
