(accidentally deleted my post last night when it was nearly finished - decided I needed to sleep. Hope the capitals and italics are okay - did read someones tips on doing colour but it was way above my technological skills. At least I can do a neat list. Will learn one or two bits a month.)

Ditty - you can only do your best at the time. They are people, but so are you - we are none of us perfect. Have a big apple hug x

Dolly - I'm jealous of your warmth and sunshine! Yesterday I was wearing along-sleeved tee, a hoodie, a fleece and my waterproof, along with my winter woolly hat. And I still got so chilled that I had to warm up a microwaveable polar bear when I got home!

I'm not at all well but have eaten, taken my pills and had a shower (only just, felt too wobbly before). Now I feel human. Not cancelling tomorrow (or I will only ever go to mum's and appointments). So I'm watching Wexford epsiodes and sewing away madly. I haven't set a cut off point, will see how I feel. Doing little bits every time I take a break and have a list of things I need to get back too when i can stand up again.

Have a good day turtles.

Hiya turtles.

I had a lovely afternoon off, enjoyed the sunshine, walked to my local zoo and hung out with the animals 12k steps in the bag

just need to reduce the amount of food I eat next. I treated myself to a drink as it was warm there. So funny when the zoo is quiet they sort of miss humans, all run up to me. Great photos taken.

Today spent bought hair dye, fail to see why I am paying a hairdresser £40 a month to dye my roots so back to dying my own. Nice treat whilst it lasted.  Gym after work today, really aching all over but will force myself there straight from work.  Then chill out with my new dressing gown tonight, sad when this is my big excitement for the week.

No more NSD's to add. Yesterdays spend £1.99 and today lidl shop before work £13.20 and hair dye, toiletries 12.50.

Claimed £9 paypal cash back and £5 amazon voucher for surveys and £25 for cleaning office so I am winning today

hello everyone
Been to self employment role today which I really enjoy - wish I could do full time self employment.

hi all.

mothernerd hope you are feeling better.
Small update today:
decluttered 2 lots of DS room & been able to put 15 items into a charity bag.  One of my personal goals for 2020 is to fill 20 charity bags with 20 items so nearly done my second one.
NSD - not today - still 4/15.  Had to go to aldee for work refreshments so bought a few items for myself as I was there.  Also gave DS £3 for school swimming and non uniform day.

Feeling a bit stressed hopefully get a few things organised over the weekend to reduce this.

Received our water bill for the year surprise surprise it’s gone up only by £4 a month but still. Will need to rearrange my budgets to reflect this.

Today I am grateful for a dry day, for having the car to take dd to sch when we discovered her bus pass was in the wash!, for getting done in the shops what I wanted to do, for plenty of walking, for my needlefelting, for dh offering to take dd to youth - and pick her up too.
