Angst and action sounds great! I think I will write my own... It can be so easy to get swallowed up in the angst so I love this
No need to feel guilty about the Clinique purchase... £35 is good value and if you use the products why not? It's a smart decision
Really lovely that you've reached out to the family member... Life is to short or (as the kids say) YOLO :rotfl: Ideally they respond and it goes well.Total Debt : ?? / ??0 -
Hope the facial is a joy tomorrow, know what you mean about the skin issues. I found a place near me that does really intense deep clean ones, not enjoyable - like going to the dental hygienist - but makes a huge difference to my dry patches and blotching.My mortgage free diary: +++ Divide by Cucumber Error.

Stressful day work wise yesterday but WFH so no horrible commute
I made vegetable, halloumi, and chicken kebabs and they were gorgeous. I had them with lentil pasta and salad.
