Yes I noticed it was light until 10 past 5 today. Beautiful day here too.
I can’t believe the man not giving the ball back without you having to ask. That’s just barefaced cheek 😡
Lol I know what you mean about the next house project....we haven’t got the furniture back in the back bedroom from the front and I’ve been discussing colours with the gks....it’s the room they stay in......although it feels as if they’ll never stay again at this rateJanuary spends - £587.587 -
Great savings totals - you are very organised.
no sunshine in my part of the country today - very grey. Fingers crossed for some sunshine tomorrow or the next day or the day after 🌞6 -

I have a neighbour with a yappy poodle cross type dog that is forever running around in the road while she ineffectually shouts to it from her doorstep.It makes a beeline for B every time and she just stands there shouting sorry at me. Last week I told her I would rather she trained her dog than keep having to say sorry to me.Its really excitable and B gets very nervous when it's bouncing around, she nearly bit it the other day, it's only a matter of time before it gets run over 😟Original Debt Owed Jan 18 = £17,630 Paid To Date = £6,510 Owed = £11,1208

Morning 😀
Mr M delivery coming this morning, so will be a spending day today. I've had an email offer this morning of 100L of compost for £17.99 free delivery. Any opinions on whether this is a good offer? We will need some for the seeds (yet to be bought) that Mr SA wants to sow in the greenhouse and the tubs later in the year. We need to buy seeds but will leave that until next week.
Last month's exercise focus was HIIT and this month it's running and abs/core plus yoga. I like to keep changing what I do and I've let the running lapse a bit just lately after completing C25k in the summer, so will be running 3 times a week like I used to, well it's probably more jogging with the odd sprint thrown in 😆
Chicken for Mr SA's dinner is out defrosting. Not sure what to do for myself yet. Cleaning is the bedroom. Will need to take the dog out.
By contrast to yesterday's beautiful weather, today it's pouring with rain. There's bits of snow on some roofs too.

We woke to really heavy snow this morning. The other half set off for work at his usual time and he isn't there yet. He was sat 5 minutes down the road for over an hour. A lorry got stuck on the hill. He has had to turn round and go a different way but that is busy as well. What should have been a 35 minute journey is 90 minutes in and he is nowhere near Sheffield yet!7

Looks like our snow turned to rain thank goodness.I’ve answered my own question about the compost. I can get the same amount, delivered free from a local nursery for £13.98. Could get it even cheaper if we had transport.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)5
