No, I rocked up to the doctors surgery. Muppet! Lie in tomorrow as its jab day for the B12 not the other one. Cleaning fairy has been and house is looking great, except kitchen as DD1 has cooked......lets just say it was an interesting tea and normally I'm a great advocate for using up leftovers but probably not this time.
71 parcels today so a bit quieter. They're just lulling me into a false sense of security before the weekend. I even managed to do some of the stocktake today. Slowly getting there, as I managed to get some listings done on Saturday. Probably still got half a dozen to do.
The old girl is looking a bit moth eaten as she's moulting. Honestly for a smooth haired dog I really don't know where it comes from compared to the fluffies. No matter how much I brush her she's leaving a trail all over!

@bd80s yes sure it's today. At least I ruddy well hope so! In the greatest of news I've lost 4lb!!!!!!!!!!! Well chuffed, I'm peering over the edge into the next stone, if that makes sense. Just need to behave this weekend despite it being Mothers Day. I'll be catching OH up, who forgot to weigh himself...hmmmm running scared me thinks.
Got to do the shopping tonight but feeling so uninspired, this is dangerous territory as I quickly fall into 'lets have a takeaway!'
Phoned up and got the balance on my M&S card which I've cleared. Not managed to put much into the ISA this month, hopefully do better.

B12 jab received, correct day and time, go me! Just a waiting game now for the other one. In other more exciting news, accountant has said to get the en-suite done at the Skye house. Now I really have no clue about such things and as the shops are shut I'm going to struggle. I'm also rubbish at visualizing things. However the world of FB has come to my aid as I put a post on there asking for designers to help and I've got 2 people looking into it for me. One of them from past experience is eye poppingly expensive however he has come with lots of recommendations and I've seen photos of his work which does look good. I'm also getting quotes in to have the exterior painted. We were hoping to do this ourselves but its not going to happen.
