Keep calm and carry on....

I've had another one delivered today 😂 Have never found it necessary to scrub my hands after opening my post before - but I did today, don't know where it's been! 

I stopped just short of wiping down the outside of a box with a disinfectant wipe this morning. I did scrub my hands after though and also asked the fella to leave it on the back bench rather than handing it directly to me.

I decided that, in the unlikely event that I make it all the way through all the books that I haven't read yet (and just so you know, I counted, and I have 5 partially read ones, and over 50 unread ones that form part of my work library, plus a folder of about 3000 e-books), then I will buy on kindle! I do have about 5 books that I'm itching to read and haven't bought yet; perhaps those can be my rewards for reading some of these others first 😂😳🙈

Beware video calling your boss not properly dressed - someone I am close to revealed rather more than intended to his boss when first working from home LOL.

Did he accidentally leave the ball gag out?

Deary me, I disappear for an afternoon....😂

Sound advice SH, I'm not sure what the etiquette is on these things??? All they can see is my head and shoulders (and the stolen stationery on the wall behind me 😡), so am focusing on wearing a proper top and not PJ's/scruffs as per yesterday morning. They've never seen me not in business dress (with hair and make-up done) before, but I am taking my lead from my boss as he looks about 12 with no hair gel in 😂

So, no news is good news as far as the business is concerned....? We are still open(ish) but the instruction from the top brass is very limited. I can happily work from home catching up on my admin for the next few months, so I'm pretty chilled about it as long as they keep paying me - the struggle will be getting me back in the office 😯! It definitely helps that I'm pretty antisocial by nature anyway 😂

Had a bit of a "What the h*ll" moment this afternoon and cracked open a bottle of champers at 4.00pm - no video calls to keep up appearances for and reasoned I'm not going to get many other reasons to pop a cork for a while 😀

Although I did enjoy my 2-second commute to the fridge last night - much better than the usual best-part-of-an-hour 😂

Right....mortgage.... (oh yeah) The OP's I made last week have credited so we currently sit at:
Current balance £28,162.36
Savings for OP £119.05
Net balance £28,043.31

I have enough Huyu points to cash out, which would normally mean £5 moved across from the grocery pot, but I have no means of printing a voucher at the moment so the points and money are going to have to stay where they are for now. I'm also within 3 receipts of £5 from Shoppix, but with no trips to the shops or access to BF's receipts that's also out of reach at the moment 😢!

Wage slip day tomorrow, ahead of payday on Friday, so lots of workings-out to be done on the back of an envelope. Mission for today: Try not to drink too much 😮!

Have a good day all

Try not to drink too much...after 3 days of trying to homeschool I need a drink! Thankfully it's been dry so kicking them outside has worked a treat. I dread the rain! At least we have the joy of money shuffles ahead of us.
