Happy Friday. I’ve not ventured out as it was really foggy this morning and icy too. It’s partially defrosted now but looks lethal out there with icy patches. Annnnd that is the end of my weather report.Happy FridayJanuary spends - £587.587

It is thawing out quite quickly here. I took the dog out at lunchtime for a quick walk and it wasn't too bad. Only trouble is it is forecast to be very cold again overnight so the stuff that is thawing will ice over again by morning and will probably be worse tomorrow than it has been today!6

I’ve been to the park twice with the dog today. It was half muddy grass and half thawing snow, the muddy bits were the worst. Mr SA hasn’t mentioned the cheeseburger so it looks like I’ll get away without a trip to the shops and achieve NSD 7 🥳

I achieved NSD7 🥂 Mr SA didn’t notice he had fish and chips instead of the cheeseburger and chips he’d requested earlier in the week 👍 Good news is I haven’t used my big oven for a week now thanks to the Ninjas. DD has got to grips with them and using when she gets home from work. She’s not easily impressed but thinks they are great. Next step is to make a pizza from scratch tomorrow involving bread flour and yeast.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)7

Morning folks, happy Saturday 🍾
Weighed in this morning and I’ve lost 2lbs 🥳 Only need to lose 3 more to be back at goal.I need to go to the local shops today for a few things. Today’s exercise is a 30 minutes dance class or a jog, plus dog walking of course. Also need to catch up with the cleaning I didn’t get done in the week. Making a pizza for tonight’s dinner with salad and wedges. Prosecco is chilling in the fridge 🥂
The new gel varnish arrived yesterday so I’m going to do my nails later. Also hoping to make some time to just sit and finish my book with my feet up at some stage.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)9 -
Have been on the park with the dog this morning and it’s unbelievably muddy after all the overnight rain and thawed out snow. Had to walk really carefully. The dog enjoyed it though and it will keep her quiet until lunchtime when she’ll want to go again.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)8

Well done on the 2Lbs I can’t wait for the day I come on here and say I have 3 lbs left to lose 😂 that’s something I’ve started looking after my nails I’ve got some nail strengthening varnish on they doing ok and when I get back to work I am going to start wearing gloves when I can popped in to mr A when I was out and heard the young lad say to someone excuse me sir can I just make you aware that it’s only one person one trolley he was with his wife and a lad of about 15 he said well I hope you’re telling everyone else and his wife said just go and get a trolley each and follow me around they can’t do anything about it then I don’t know if I have worked to long in customer service but I have got to the point we’re I can’t bear to listen to them lost all patience then when I came out a man was saying to my hubby just been told to get out in there hate the shop anyway so they not throwing me out I won’t go in so I said to him no you weren’t I heard the lad politely asking people if they were aware of the rules and unless you’re a idiot you will be but unfortunately every one knows your job and I just walked away I just can’t be done I have no patience and am just turning into a angry unsociable old bat6
