Get a grip !

Still got a headache 😩 Work has been a real slog. 

Ordered shopping including milk, sausages, couple packs of micro rice, fruit, 8 pack Pepsi max, lemon juice for some pancakes using some of the flour my house moving friend gave me & some cream to make a quick cheese sauce tonight with gammon and cauliflower. Total £20.64 includes Delivery. 

I still need to go to town and get printer ink and I need to phone the solicitor. Maybe tomorrow 😬 Going to have a snooze 😴

Email the solicitors, that way you get written quotes to compare against each other.

Shopping was a good price.

Hope you're head is feeling better.

Pepsi max sounds gooood. I've been on water all afternoon.

Hope you're feeling better, Skinty.

Pepsi max was refreshing after peach squash or tea all day. Headache has eased this morning thank goodness. I think it’s just a stress headache with worries about work & selling the house. I need to print & sort the paperwork about EPC, indemnity policy, transfer of equity after divorce & it’s digging up a lot of memories. In some ways I wish they had just moved out & bought somewhere else. 😬 

I may even try some Pepsi max with lemon juice today, live life on the edge 😆

We were told yesterday we are being recalled to the office but can work from home for 6 days in a 4 week period. It’s supposed to start at the end of feb but I’ve been told it’s likely to be later for me as they still have to get DSE assessor to order me a new chair. I will increase petrol in my budget for March just in case. 

Will be getting up again soon to walk the dog. I can hear the birds singing this morning 😁

Wilco online is showing a sale on printer ink so I will go there after work today

Have walked the dog and bumped into my friend with 2dogs so had a walk and chat with her. 

It’s a lovely sunny day and I have so much to do that I decided to take a days annual leave and this has been agreed. 

I’ve just had breakfast and a hot chocolate & washing is just finishing for me to hang out. Then I am going to head into town & see if I can get printer ink on offer in Wilco.

Have DS and GF got the mortgage application in? If not, slow down and stop rushing to get everything sorted out today. It's not helping your stress levels.

Keep saving while WAH and see if you can pick the office days to suit your lifestyle.

Hope your impromptu day went as planned 😊

Got printer ink in Wilco a twin pack of colour & black compatible cartridges reduced from £18 to £13.60. Also got luxury quilted loo rolls 9 for £3. 😆

Then drove to nearest charity shop & dropped off 2 large bags of stuff. Then on to morresons & got 2 bottles peach squash, kippers, tiger bread, value freezer bags, pack of finger rolls yellow sticker from 79p to 32p, pack of 3 peppers yellow sticker from 99p to 40p, lambs liver £1.40 which should do several meals. Also got 2 hot cooked chicken legs £2.30 (instead of kfc) and shredded them in sandwiches with tiger bread. Total spend £14.62

Then I spent the afternoon printing stuff until my friend phoned me to go for a walk about 4pm. DS & gf walked the dog. Me & friend walked to McD and had a meal each, it was friends turn to pay & my meal & drink £4.99. I will pay next time. Was good to get out and have some fresh air and a chat. Feel a lot lighter this evening now I have sorted stuff my side for selling.

You've been busy and sound less stressed compared to earlier. Enjoy your evening.

Belated congratulations on the house move.  It's going to be an exciting 2022 for you.

Thank you @MovingForwards and @MoneyWorry

DS is getting stressed and I can understand why, it’s a lot to take in for a first time buyer. He is going to use the broker his 2 friends used recently to buy so hopefully that will help them.
