I feel like I’ve done nothing but walk and work today. Went for a really long walk before work then just returned from a lunchtime walk with the dog. Went to a different park, one that’s just a bit further down the road and had forgotten how nice it was. It was so nice to see the little local independent cafe bars busy as we passed. People sitting outside with bottles of wine chatting in the sun and there’s me going back to work. How the other half live 😆
Yet another spending day as the Morrison’s order arrived this morning with - are you sitting down - no subs or missing items 👏 However I forgot to order bread so have just picked up a loaf locally.
Got a real meh mundane Tuesday feeling today, I don’t know why, I just don’t feel very enthusiastic.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)7 -
I think there's general getting up and going of the get up and go. I am even clearing papers in place of baking a cake today - though I much prefer baking and have promised the cake for this evening - but the get up and go for that is not to be found. I suspect it's gone to the beach for the day.
Nice that Morries have sent all your order.I think a bit of sunshine is good for frugal living. (Cranky40)

Morning, happy hump day
Have been for a run this morning, just over 5k, feel so much better for it, really energised. Have got a very busy working day ahead as I’m in live webinars back to back all day from 9.30. Won’t even get a decent lunch break.Will finally make NSD5, no plans for spending today. Will be the only one this week as I need to pick some bits up tomorrow and I’m out on Friday with my friend. Isn’t it typical the weather has been beautiful and the day I’m going to my friends it’s forecast rain.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)8 -

I'm meeting a friend tomorrow and of course it's going to rain 🙄we are going for a coffee though so will at least be indoors, I hope you got a lunch break of some sort today 😊Original Debt Owed Jan 18 = £17,630 Paid To Date = £6,510 Owed = £11,1205

My friend has a lovely conservatory so we’ll be sitting in there now. There will be no coffee involved it will be ginsecco 🥂 Will be a faff to get to her as she lives 18 miles away in another county but worth it for the break from Mr SA. She woke me up last night at 11pm messaging me about what I wanted to eat 🤣I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)9
