It’s my birthday month who cares about the actual date 🤣🥂🥳 🎂
Staycation Day 2.
Mr M order no missing items, 3 subs but all sensible and acceptable.
Very long walk with the dog this morning.Still no joy in getting through to Boots, constantly in a queue, but can now see the £56 in points on my digital card on the app. Rang Virgin, they’ve been fixing an outage in my area so can’t see what the problem is with my TiVo box. I have to call back tomorrow if the problem persists.Made a gorgeous pizza salad for lunch using aubergine slices as the pizza base, truly delicious 😋 Making veggie spaghetti bolognese for tonight.Beautiful warm sunny day here today so have done lots of tidying up in the garden plus reading my book in the sun with my feet up ☀️Just 117 steps more and I’ve hit 20k 🥳I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)5 -
Well done with the steps and the pizza sounds lovely.January spends - £587.584

Happy Not Birthday!
I realised the other day that my Boots points had reset to zero, hadn't used it in over two years so they cancel them. Hope you get yours sorted.My mortgage free diary: +++ Divide by Cucumber Error. Please reinstall universe and reboot+++

The veggie bolognese was gorgeous too. Had to smile because Mr SA looked in the pot and said he was really looking forward to his minced beef tonight as it smelled and looked lovely. Had to break it to him it was my green lentil bolognese 🤣 He had sausage and mash in a giant Yorkshire pudding so wasn’t overly disappointed.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)4

That is exactly like where I live, the New Look shut down and so did a few of the restaurants, I can't buy clothes in the high street, in fact I just go there for the pet shop and the chemist and occasionally the supermarket. I hate shopping at the best of times so can't say I miss it, but it is very empty there now.Nevertheless she persisted.4
