I'm so sorry, I missed the bit about your friend. Some people are just nasty and enjoy causing upset.

Thank you ladies it's fine, I will try to cheer my friend up. We've got to remember that it's the good people that keep us going not the idiots. If possible I would like to start to declutter the garage tomorrow.Aiming for a minimal spend 20222

I did a tiny bit of decluttering before work, the petunia plug plants arrived. A friend is bringing compost on Saturday so I can pot them and more weed and feed as I can see more clover coming up again!. Work was crackers. Im hoping the worst of it will be over by Monday. Ive just picked some strawberries and raspberries free food yum.Aiming for a minimal spend 20222

Think you need to borrow a baby cow to nibble the clover. There does seem to be a lot of it sprouting up as even I'm seeing it pop up.
Work will calm down and you will get to appreciate and tend to your garden, for now enjoy your fruit!Mortgage started 2020, aiming to clear 31/12/2029.2 -

Skinty I wrote just asking if I could return 3 pairs that I have not worn. I have to go to a medical appointment and will post them this next week
On Saturday after housework and mowing the grass, a friend is visited with compost, we went to her house for a social distancing takeaway. I spent £40 (on cc) to say a thank you as she has done so much for me over lockdown.
I have £60 cash to my name 9 days till payday.

The hospital says I can go back to work from next week as long as I take some precautions. I am rather excited and hoping I will lose some weight. I spent £27 in the supermarket on food and taxi was £12. I charged it to my card as I am running out of cash. Tonight I put in a new plant and watered in grass seed.Aiming for a minimal spend 20222
