My journey to a debt free life

Glad she seems perky and managing ok. Not so good about your cough being back though. Do you think they will leave you some more antibiotics or something to help? I know with a virus it's up to your body to fight it and antibiotics don't work but wondering if it is another infection that needs something stronger. 

I have just got home and did plan on stripping the bed to wash this morning. I got up late and then ended up not doing it so I must remember to do it tomorrow morning now so that I can have nice fresh bedding. It's nice when you can get things out on the line. x

Hope B goes on ok and that you are feeling better soon. 

I’ve spent the last couple of weeks reading your diary. What a difference from the early days to where you are now. Well done 👏👏

The antibiotics  I was on were strong ones apparently,I'm going to wait a couple of days and if there's no improvement I will request another appointment, it's not as bad as it was it's just when I'm talking I cough and get breathless
I was going to strip my bed today but haven't done it yet, I've done my ironing and now I'm wiped out

Today I have managed to catch up on my ironing although there's more on the line 🙄 I've also made a Whiskey Tea Loaf which is really quick and easy to make and tastes yummy
I phoned work and updated them but I haven't been to the shop yet, I do need to go but don't know if I can be bothered, I might leave it until tomorrow now , I had a jacket potato and cheese for lunch instead of my usual sandwich which got ground the lack of bread situation

Wow it's hot here today. I was awake most of the night because I was too hot,I chucked my duvet off in the end and slept under a throw. So far I've done one load of washing and pegged that out and I also walked down to the shop, going down there was ok because it's downhill but coming back I had to stop a couple of times to get my breath back.
Im going to finally make the leek croustade today now I've got bread, luckily the leeks are still ok
I also still haven't phoned the vet so need to do that too. I am so bored and have so many things I could be doing but can't do any of them.
Last night I watched a hybrid drama/ documentary on Netflix called The Social Dilemma,it's about the way in which social media is undermining society in general and was quite eye opening. I'm not sure it will make me change my habits around using social media myself but I think parents of teenagers should watch it and heed the warning it's giving,it's certainly sobering that when asked all of the professionals on there who were past developers of Facebook, Instagram,Twitter and the search engine Google won't let their pre teen children have a smartphone without exception. They had a psychologist on who said that the rate for suicide in the i think 10 to 14 year age range has gone up by over 150% in line with the popularity of social media apps and the use of smartphones in that age range which is a horrifying statistic

Scary statistics there from the programme. I’m pleased I don’t have teenagers. Funnily enough myself and dd were talking about the best age to let gdd have a phone.....we both came  to the conclusion 25 might be ok.....😂😂 we think gdd might disagree. It’s like a minefield 😱

That's a really worrying statistic. I do worry about DD and growing up in the social media generation. I don't want her to have it, but also don't want her to be the odd one out either. x

Im also glad I don't have teenagers,I see the results of the pressure they are put under everyday at work, phones were just becoming popular when my two were teenagers and neither of them were allowed one, they got one when they left school and could pay for it themselves

If my daughters were growing up in this situation they wouldn't be allowed a phone,I've spent too much time sitting with children as young as ten years old who have tried to kill themselves due to online bullying
