Hey up SA XX
Bedroom sounds great, I am doing my room white with grey curtains (carpet is disgusting would love floorboards) and grey throws on the bed and desk chair. I am hoping painting it white and being neutral I can easily change the accent colour. I love the plant leaves bedding I see on Amazon. And the rugs. Weirdly for a grown woman my stuff has rabbits on............moving on!
Hope MrSA is doing ok and you are too. Good news on DD XXXNevertheless she persisted.5 -
Yay to your hair and your DD's negative tests, and boo to Mr SA falling... hope a good night's sleep puts him right though he will be sore for a while.I think a bit of sunshine is good for frugal living. (Cranky40)

Happy Friday 😁
This week has flown by for me, been really busy but feel like I haven't achieved anything.
Today won't be a NSD as I'm having an eyebrow wax and tint at lunchtime and I need to order more pebbles. Mr SA is a bit battered this morning and isn't really with it so doesn't feel up to going to the builders merchants. I'm sure they must take orders over the phone so will try.
Have been for a run this morning, another beautiful but cold morning. Will take the dog for a run later.
Stir fry for dinner tonight and leftover pizza for lunch. Mr SA is having his usual Friday fish, chips and mushy peas, daren't deviate from that 😆I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)6 -
Hope mr SA is alright today sounds like a nasty fall bless him I can’t wait to get my eyebrows done but the girl who does them hasn’t opened back up she hasn’t been well for a while and now they have diagnosed her with ME I feel so sad for her she’s only had her business for a couple of year and one of them she was closed I will have to go elsewhere I liked her to do them as I have a underactive thyroid and my eyebrows are very sparse and she did them great feel a bit selfish saying that when she is so poorly5

Finished work at 12.30 today. Had my eyebrows done, picked up a few bits of shopping then sat in the garden reading my book with a G&T.Mr SA is hassling me to death for some new shorts. Driving me nuts going on and on about them 😩 He said he’ll have a few pairs for his birthday, they’re only £20 a pair and they have them in all colours 😩 Told him he’s got the bag plus I bought him a huge bottle of his favourite CK One, so no more. So much for him not wanting anything for his birthday. He was wearing a Christmas T-shirt today because according to him he doesn’t have anything else to wear. And so the pester list begins 😩I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)6
