This evening I took leave of my senses, I now declare I have an addiction . . . . .

Of the good kind . . . . o/p. After reading MvM's post. I thought (knew) I could/can do more.

So to this end, I made an o/p of £400 being the large (ish) sum I have been talking/dithering about. I will make this work, I will get organised, I will sell, I will save, I will switch, etc,etc but most of all . . . I will be MF

I will over the next 6 months now have to watch what I'm o/p as my 10% limit is approaching fast who would have believed that - certainly not me Just shows you what can be done

Morning AFK - am ok. Trying to start studying again after taking a break....I am the queen of procrastination. If I get my act together am hoping to do two exams in December...but we shall see.
Well done on all OPs...SIL

Thank Goodness its Friday, had a struggle all week, not sleeping well, no energy and out of sorts, really do need a few days off, however have a couple of long weekends coming up later.
Bexter - no more sleeps now :eek: :j :beer:
Have plans to do loads of errands (shopping) tomorrow, one of the girls in work is leaving to have a baby
and want to try my hand at making a baby princess nappy cake - look nice in the photos, but will see how it turns out.

Lovely blue sky after monsoon rain during the night - woke me twice - so heavy, so perhaps cleared and will now get some weather that will allow me to get the garden done.

Monthly check up at my gp's on Monday, so better behave myself and not stress out over the weekend, or I'll get another telling off. BP still not behaving:(

And on the saga front - phoned them again today, was told by the call centre - didn't know why they have raised another job no and started again:( Well if you don't know - how do I :mad: Can't get through to the work dept to find out, asked to speak to a supervisor - why - they will only tell you the same as I have - well let me speak to them, then. Sorry no supervisor or manager available. So that's work dept, supervisor or manager all not available - no, but will get someone to phone you back sometime next week, :mad::mad: Not. good. enough. :mad: Another Rant over and breathe

Claimed for two p/cone surveys done so will be going into pot once received, and lastly will have a go at a statement of support regarding the secondment.

Morning - up nice and early, washing on and breakfast eaten so far. Loads to do, so lets see if I can get through it all.

Anyone any ideas on how I can improve my computer skills PDQ, looking for something that will self teach me, need to learn basics on docs, attachments and spreadsheets, not sure if chromebooks are different - you all seem to have them. Had a go at a spreadsheet myself and found I had more :dance: than I thought :eek: :rotfl: so thinking along the lines of another big (to me:o) o/p. So, need to get spreadsheet sorted - all these little bank accounts add up ,

Mission for today, get shopping, tidying and learning.

So break time - cuppa, washing up on clothes dryer, bed changed so another washing on, and its not the weather for drying outside. Chicken fillets in oven, getting ready for a small batch cook later on today, been thinking of buying a mandolin (don't laugh) if I've got the name wrong its a slicer.

Wonder if I can leave shopping bits and bobs till tomorrow, weather is dismal, hope it clears up later, meanwhile back to tidying.

Weather pretty carp here too..lets hope it clears up.

We too have a mandolin...:) OH loves it for getting really nice salads put together...you cant beat a lovely bit of finely sliced home grown courgette

Chin up re building work..I hate incompetence too...but see where you get to on a complaint..even if its just a small financial gesture re your stress and time
