    Heating broke at work this morning - it was freezing :( Fixed later thankfully but took ages to warm up.

    Snow and ice gone so back to walking to and from work. I hate getting the bus. Gym again at lunchtime plus a NSD :) Should've been another AFD, but emptied the last of the tonic water into a glass then topped it with a splash of pink gin, whoops.

    Mr M delivery booked for tomorrow, have been really ruthless and only ordered what we need this week. Looking forward to Pilates tomorrow, really enjoying it.

    Happy hump day indeed :)

    Got Mr SA some hair clippers from Mr S for just £10 :) He's really happy with them and it will save money as he currently spends more on haircuts than I do at £7 every other week - and he has hardly any hair!!!!

    Got another job on promotion to apply for so will have another attempt.

    Went to Pilates, it was good but not one of my better ideas to walk home 3 miles uphill straight afterwards as my legs were like jelly, I felt every step. Next week I'll go back to my desk for a bit until I've recovered.

    Hope everyone has had a good day :)
