Not managed any NSDs this month yet.I went to physio class earlier and found it really hard going today. Think I’m tired after my gallivanting last week.We went shopping yesterday at a big Asd@ a little drive away. I got lots of reduced items for 28p each…..tomatoes, potato cakes, bread, tea cakes, avocado, mushrooms- best haul I’ve had in a while. It came in at £60 I was expecting much more. That’ll keep me going for a couple of weeks at least 😄
Just found out The Michael Bubble concert I was gifted tickets to in 2020 is going ahead in July. I’m looking forward to it….I can actually take or leave Micky Bubbles but my friend loves him and I’m her guest….but it’s in a city I’ve never visited before and my nephew who sent me the flowers lives there so I want to meet up with him 😀January spends - £587.580 -
What a great haul you got. I rarely come across reduced items, I must go shopping at the wrong time of day. I’m like you with Mr Bubble, he’s alright but not actually a fan. I did download a Christmas album of his a few years ago though.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)0

Friend called in yesterday and has booked a hotel for when we go to see Micky Bubbles in July. It’s a Holiday Inn - 3 nights so will be a nice little break. I’d better put some cash on 1 side as my eyes watered when I saw the price……and that was the cheapest with cancellation option 😳😳.
I’m expecting a phone call from the DWP in about an hour…..hopefully it’ll be the same lady I spoke to last time.
I can hardly put my foot on the floor today. My ankle is so sore…..which has set my hip off as I’m not putting weight on it properly. It’s so annoying, I’ve been trying to walk lots to keep going and strengthen muscles etc but I’ve done too much 😵💫 I think the physio class finished me off yesterday 😵💫

I will when you do Beanie 😂😂😂😂
I had a long chat with a cousin today. I still think of her as young but she will be 80 next month. We were very close when I was little and I used to stay at her house as I’m actually closer in age to her children. We hadn’t seen each other for years but I bumped into her in a supermarket at the beginning of lockdown and we phone each other regularly, it’s so nice to speak to someone about my mum as not many people I know remember her. I haven’t done much today. The phone call with DWP was ok…..asked if I’d considered working from home 😳
I went around to Morrison’s for potatoes as I’d forgotten them at weekend - another yellow sticker find…23p for 5 lb of Maris Piper 👍👍 there were loads so I bought 2 😀😀January spends - £587.582 -
I set out to go to SW at 9.30 but decided to go in the car as my leg has been very sore this last day or so. I went to get my handbag…..couldn’t find it anywhere, had the place upside down. I was convinced I must have left it in the car yesterday when I bought potatoes. I phoned dh at work as he had gone out in my car…’Oh’ says he…….’I hung it up and then hung my coat on top’……WHY 😏😂😏😂😏 I always put it in one of a few places…..never hang it up and why would you cover it with a coat……..
I just about made it to SW. I’d put 2lb on which I fully expected after lots of emotional eating and some lovely meals out for my birthday…..in fact I expected more.
I’ve got my flu jab at 2 pm so want a bit of a tidy up before I go and then I can chill when I get back 😀

At least you were expecting the gain and it's pretty good considering you had a few meals out. Glad you found your bag but what a place to put it! Men!I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)1
