Why does the naughty food always taste so good 🤭
You needed a rest as you've been working hard and long hours. Now been rewarded with sales too 🤗
Have a lovely weekend!

I’ve had naughty food this weekend too. I’m putting it down to the weather. 😆. At least your cleaning will have burned some of it off 😊

I doubt it Skinty not the huge amount I ate! Lol.  I just walked 2miles and visited a supermarket for the first time in six months. I did a £20 shop and think it will last a whole week. There were a few yellow stickers in there which is a good feeling. I was very tired when I got back as I am very unfit.

I have sold a bag for £15  it clears some clutter out. I hope the lady comes for it soon so the house is clearer. I cleaned the dustbin in the garden. Tomorrow i will do some gardening and also my lesson. On Tuesday i would like to paint the last bit of the fence.

Crisps, drool, I can do the same. I tell myself a 6 pack will 'last' me a week, and it never does....! I try not to buy them, or, just the single bag (veggie crisps are so moreish). I have declutter sales envy!

Lol don't have any envy as so far one hasn't paid. I hope they do. I could do with the £15 in my account! It is so much colder today.
I am going to do some lesson prep but really want a lazy day. I have spent £17 on clothing and £20 on food. Having a spending diary has really helped as now i can see where I spend money. For the rest of the month i am not going to buy anything apart from food and household essentials. I have to get out of the habit of marketplace browsing and looking on fleabay. I am keeping £5 for spending money at work every week though.

I only browse when I want something, even then I watch the items for a few days / week. Boredom shopping, or shopping for no actual purpose, costs a lot financially and that's where money slips through fingers like water.
Remember you are selling things you are not using or didn't have space for, don't replace them with other things, Aunty Babs is watching 😁

To be honest I have not achieved much today. I have done my job work, I will mow the grass later.

Hey Swan
I count getting up and just taking the dog out some days as an achievement!  So don't make me get the wet fish out.... in your case, I will let you borrow the horrible wet dog towel with the muddy paw marks on it, to slap yourself with... That will cure the blues, especially if I am chasing you round your place with it, falling over the dog at the same time....

Hello Ren, blood sugars were high so i have been exhausted, still i sorted it now. I wanted to paint the last bit of the fence but could barely do anything so instead I mowed the lawn in 4 stages! The buyer came to buy the handbag hurrah and paid as she collected. Im going back to bed have a good day all.

Hope you feel better when you get up.

Stop trying to do so much, you've a demanding job and have to take care of yourself too.
