Ahh Sam I loved my dancing banana. That (sadly) has a lot of meaning for me in real life, so it was a double bonus!!! Dancing bananas help me avoid the chocolate so thank you for that too!!!

Things have been good for me this week, thank you. More about that shortly.

I know Rosa, I was shocked at spending that on coffees but it does make a massive difference when it's being spent on people I love!

So, it's been a while since I updated, this is mainly due to having this week off and trying to get things done and avoid distractions. I was only half successful!!!!

I've got WAY WAY WAY too much stuff, and it's suffocating my life! I know that sounds a bit dramatic, but it's true. So, I took this week off in order to have a major clear out. LUCKILY, I found the Maria Kondo declutter book and she's made the whole task feel much more achievable. I had visions in my head that I'd be on a minimalist lifestyle by the end of the week, but truthfully I've only managed to sort out clothes, shoes and handbags. But it's a brilliant start and so momentum now needed.

I swore I'd do nothing and see no one this week, but have managed to meet up with people most days. Only important people though!

Financially I'm doing pretty good at not spending haphazardly (thank you YNAB). Each day I check my account and there's the exact amount I expect to see! Oh! I did buy a couple of things on the Amazon prime day yesterday so a little slap deserved for that. They weren't impulse buys, but they were things I should really have waited to get! BUT, I got great discounts and I do have the money so it is sort of money saving!!!!!

Yesterday I was approached by a really nice looking (and very complimentary) man. Initially I panicked and reacted very kindly but very negatively. But then when the panic subsided I put it all in perspective, wrote my number down and handed it to him. Hmmm! Watch this space!!??

I need a new diary. My blurred lines are in focus and, man aside, things are going great for me. I'm focused and on a path and I want my diary to reflect that. So I'll start that off and will post a link shortly.
