My journey to a debt free life

I blew the lights upstairs by using the wrong bulb last weekend. A few minutes later the neighbourhood WhatsApp group was asking if anyone else had a quick power cut. Whoops!

Woke up to a sunshine and showers kind of day and it's warm so no heating on 🎉🎉 I'm just chilling out this afternoon because I'm working a night tonight. I've walked B, sorted the 🐓🐓and changed my bed but that's it. I'm going to try to have a little sleep in a bit,it hard on the first night because you've slept the night before so don't really feel like sleeping in the day, I actually didn't sleep well last night though so I am a bit tired today which might help 😊

well done on the weight loss 🎉. I think your new weight loss measures will work because it's small changes to your lifestyle rather than a punitive diet you can't keep up. Extra walking always makes a difference as does decreasing portion sizes. When I go to eat something I try to ask myself why. Am I actually hungry (as in is my tummy empty), or am I bored, stressed, sad or just eating out of habit? One thing I noticed when I lost weight was how much more comfortable it was to sit, lie, get up, cross my legs, etc. It's not just vanity, it has health benefits and makes you feel more comfortable generally.

It's good that the new mattress is helping you. They can make a massive difference as I always used to wake up with a backache until we had a new mattress and now I never do. 

What a relief it was only a power cut. DS1 thought his tablet was broken as it wouldn't charge but then then he tried my charger and realised that it was the charger that was broken and not his tablet 😂 .

I hope you manage a sleep before your night shift , I can't sleep in the day it gives me a headache . 

I got a new mattress 12 months ago and although my sleep isn't fantastic, it is definitely better since the new mattress arrived . 

Can you go horse riding now ? One of my colleagues has two horses and I know she benefits from her riding , mentally and physically. 

Glad to hear the electrics are ok.

It's been on and off rain here too, but I did manage to get out on a walk. That was lovely. x

Phew to it being a power cut and not all your electrical appliances. Think there’s something in the air this week about electrical things breaking down. My washer was playing up and ds fridge is waiting repair.
Hope you have a peaceful night in work. I really couldn’t work nights 😲 hats off to you 👏

I couldn’t work nights either 🙁 On a separate note, there are some brilliant podcasts at the moment, I love listening to them on my morning run/walk.

I wouldn’t know how to access a podcast......I’m way behind the times 😏😊

@milann have you got an iPhone? If so podcasts are on the app from the iTunes Store, if android there’s something similar. Well worth looking into honestly.
