    Hello Happy New Year. I am reposting my resolutions as I wrote them a few days ago and they are lost on previous page.

    New Year's Resolutions for 2019:
    To save my wage rise (£9-10) as well as my usual overpayments and savings
    To take in a mug and teabags to work as then my tea is free
    To take sandwiches as much as possible
    To save all £2 coins into a money box
    To walk everyday when my health is up to it.
    To only buy individual bags of crisps as buying large six packs are empty calories.
    To continue to save £20 a month into my Christmas Fund
    To avoid eating out as it is v expensive and avoid illness:j

    I spent yesterday in bed. No marking done. Today I am going to do some I am also going to try to cook some sausages and eat some food too. V tired but feeling better. Dr's orders are to rest.

    Susan wants to stay but I cant cope with anyone else being here let alone do laundry so I have had to say no. I don't think they realise how run down I am.

    Bless you, I started to have more energy today. Still feel nauseous but I can walk around now.:j

    I also did a bit of marking. I am not going to meet my deadlines. For my subject I set the deadlines so I will leave that till later and do other tasks first.
