Morning, happy Monday 😎
Running very late this morning, didn't wake up until 6.30, then decided to walk to Lidl to pick up a few bits. It's a fair walk so over 7k steps clocked up so far.
I've decided not to keep up the 20k steps a day self-imposed challenge for October but to push for a minimum of 100,000 steps per week, which works out at just over 14k a day. This is more doable at the moment when I'm not walking to/from work.
Finances for last week done and there was an underspend of £9.62 which has gone to the iPad savings. Also sent another £50 that would've gone to the EF so now have £62.72 saved towards the iPad. Have cleared the cc, just a couple of bits pending which will be paid off when they clear.
Have had a delivery date for the greenhouse so need to pay the balance, thankfully have got that saved up. It's coming in 2 weeks. Still uncertain whether to have a go at putting it up ourselves with the help of DS or just pay someone to do it properly and professionally.
Fly Lady is living room today, so will crack on with that as and when.
Have a magnificent Monday x

Made some spicy carrot and red lentil soup for my weekday lunches this lunchtime, using up some carrots past their best. Then took the dog on the park, we had the park all to ourselves and it was lovely in the sun. That's got my steps up to 11k 😁 Going to do a yoga session after work to stretch out a bit.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)9
