A whole new world, for now

Counselling sounds shambolic.
You are right we are more looked after by the NHS than most other countries.

Today’s conversation with my wii indicates a 2lb drop.  This may be in part due to my tummy’s reaction to the wonder drug.  My blood sugars were also comfortably in range.  Under normal prescribing guidelines, I would by now be on 5 times the dose but yet on the lowest dose, my sugars are consistently in range.  It makes you wonder about the guidelines.  

Yesterday I completely blitzed the kitchen and dh progressed the bedroom.  It’s pretty close to where it needs to be.  Today I am meeting a friend and we are going grocery shopping instead of for coffee and cake.  This evening I have a semi work call scheduled with another friend and, having watched 3 episodes of the woman in the wall, we are hoping to watch the other three tonight.  

I want to get the living room deep cleaned today so need to get cracking.

That is absolutely shocking about the counselling.

Hope the viewing goes well!

Within 2 rooms, we knew the viewing was a write off.  It just wasn’t for us but did have some nice features with good natural light in most rooms.  Though when we went to the garden, we did see a wild rabbit.  This is within metres of a main road.  Still, it’s the first house that we’ve ever viewed together so I was relieved that it was a no from both of us.

dd is home and a lot of sleeping was done yesterday.  She woke, consumed sausages and potato bread and caught up with eastenders so priorities have been addressed.  Ten items finally went to the cs before she was awake enough to realise.  

Today’s good news is that I won £200 from pot 1 pb though nothing from pot2.  That starts the scoreboard for next month’s purchase.  

Today I have a webinar to attend and client work and invoicing to do so need to get moving.

Congratulations on the PB win!

Enjoy your time with DD

Pity about the house….at least you were both on the same page about it. 

Enjoy your time with Dd…..nothing better than spending time with our grown up offspring 😁
I hope you get something sorted out with the appointments…..it’s not good at all 😡

Mr wii advises of an upwards creep this week but not enough to add a pound to my weight.  I’ll happily take that as revisiting DD’s favourite foods has been quite calorific.  I went to the talking therapies session on Thursday and, while I get that it’s early days, part of me wishes that it had cancelled again.  Half the time was spent reminding me there were only 6 sessions available and the other half on admin. As for my homework, while smiling at myself in a mirror I have to say aloud 3 things I’m grateful for.  Maybe she picked up more than I realised as I’m really not comfortable looking at myself.  

On other news, work was mainly avoided.  A charity was assisted and the rugby was watched yesterday.  We went to the final dance class that was my birthday present from dh.  I want to book another 4 but I think that’ll be a tough convincing.  The money is there and works out at £20 a class per couple.  It’s also the only structured exercise we both do.  

I’m glad to report that this week is a busy one so things will have to get done. Today I will get one job up to date before meeting the client tomorrow.  I also need to pay bills and issue invoices.  last week while staring blankly at a screen, i worked out that I need to get an extra 175 plus any withdrawals for bills, to end the year 15% of the way towards by pb target.  There’s still two monthly draws between now and then.

Today I am grateful for
identifying a cheaper way to enjoy dh’s favourite takeaway
a relatively steady weight
my online cheerleaders
help from a friend for dh

Dance class sounds brilliant.
Glad you’ve enjoyed time with Dd.
