🤣 Looks like a slap-fest between the two cats there SA.Mine do that every so often, just slapping & chasing each other round the house and it sounds like a thundering herd of elephants when it’s up and down the stairs. 🤣Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.

Sorted out all my notebooks today, ripped out pages with writing ready for re-use. Some of them had notes dated 2007 😱 Really must use them not just hoard them.Then I sorted out my lipsticks, threw any away that were old, not my colour and lipglosses that I never wear because having long hair it just gets stuck to my lips 😆
Roasted an aubergine, courgette, cherry tomatoes, pepper and red onion earlier which will be added to some out of date pasta, passata, teaspoon of red pesto and sprinkle of grated cheese cooked in the ninja oven for 10 minutes. That’s tonight’s dinner and tomorrow’s lunch sorted and the pasta used up.That’s my decluttering for today 😁

Morning, happy Monday, another new week of 2022.
This week will fly by for me as I have the dreaded interview on Thursday 😮
It won't be a NSD as we need milk and bread. It won't last out until the next Mr M delivery as it's not coming until Wednesday this week.
Today's to do list (other than WFH)- Nip to local shops for bread and milk
- Lunchtime dog walking
- Clean the kitchen
- Spanish
- Washing and ironing
- Read a few chapters of my book
- Exercise - 30 mins HIIT session plus walking
- Look at finances

Happy Monday ….
Great to do list - enjoy completing them ( I love them on an actual list so I can draw a felt tip line through. 😆)
Goodluck for ThursdayAs a dear MSE friend says “keep plodding” or

Didn’t get everything I wanted to done. I think this week will revolve around the interview, I will be so glad when it’s over. An experienced interviewer is giving me a mock interview tomorrow and has sent me a list of the sort of questions to expect.Went to Lidl at lunchtime, Mr SA came with me and we took the dog, it’s a long walk so that killed two birds with one stone.
After work I did a live HIIT workout via the WW app, enjoyed it. Then I had a nice relaxing soak in the bath. Came back downstairs feeling much calmer only for Mr SA to wind me up about his beer supplies going down. He has 4 🤬 crates at the minute. Told him I’d stocked up while they were on offer and the price has now gone up so am waiting for another offer. It’s not as if there’s an immediate rush. He then had the cheek to tell me to stop being stressed about the interview when it was him stressing me with his beer panic. So angry with him🤬
I had leftover roast veg pasta tonight instead of the dhal as I made lentil soup at lunchtime and didn’t fancy lentils again. I’ll freeze the dhal as the soup will last all week.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)6 -
4 crates!!!!
