Moving forward and upwards

MovingForwards

Thank you SW. At the moment I've no choice but to slow down. I'm just about able to struggle through working and it's a huge drain after a few hours. 

Did a few surveys tonight while watching TV. My points are up to £91 now and I'm planning on buying little step ladders with some of it.

TomBo did the cleaning today. As he is working all weekend I'm going to try and make a start on my to do list.

We had pizza for tea 🤗

I think you are inspiring Babs. Remember slow and steady wins the race. 😊 We can both do up our homes and take our time to enjoy it instead of spending days in pain paying for it after each thing we do.

You are so right Skinty!
When I get a calendar for next year, I'm going to write myself a winter health warning on it for September. That way I know it's coming and half the battle is won 😁

Thankfully, today is Friday as I couldn't do another day!

Well impressed with the savings & planning you've already done Babs! I'm sure there are more folks out there doing less than you, even without any physical hinderance/slow-downs. I think a lot of people will be affected mentally/emotionally this year, which doesn't motivate any of us..... You are an inspiration (stop blushing!) to me, thank you.

Thank you Ren.
I've picked myself up, had a chat and dusted myself off.
It's winter, it's cold and I can't expect to keep the pace I did when I moved 🤭

Had an enjoyable day today. I like spur of the moment things where there isn't time to think!

SIL and mini me came over, visiting one of my local shops. I took an early lunch.
Mini me wanted to stay outside the shop and grabbed my hand 😶 I'm not used to little people and how to deal with them. I had to do a conversation 🙈 afterwards we had a catch up in the garden and mini me wanted a tour while SIL and TomBo were chatting. Mini me asks loads of questions, this caught me out as I only speak with adults and not get interrogated 😂 

I've been given a bag full of things to list on FB, so will do that tomorrow morning. I thought it was easier to have things here to list and sell, rather than adding an extra layer with people contacting SIL and then me finding out if things were collected.

The internet went funny this afternoon, while waiting for it to reboot I sorted out / organised the big lounge unit. Only two things left to do in that one 🤗
Opened up the next unit, looked, closed the door and backed away quickly. Definitely needs a big toolbox 😬

2 days until I can start moving money to savings.

Having roast chicken tonight.

SW, too much energy for my liking!

Skinty, I'm contemplating watching it, loved it as a kid 😁

Rough night, so been very tired all day. Managed a shower.

My gardening book arrived today and I've been reading that. Learning a lot about the land up here and why the entire garden looks how it does; before it was split into six. TomBo picked up my gardening magazines, got loads of free seeds.

Watching some Nordic / northman type series on N3tFl1x this evening. It's no Lost K, V1k1ngs and other ones I've watched, but will be ok.

Had carbonara for tea, washed down with a hot chocolate 🤗
