    Happy Friday ⭐️
    I have nothing exciting to report. Nothing at all…apart from I am eating sweets, but it is Friday! 🤭

    Insufficient information to judge. What kind of sweets?

    Love pic n mix - 10p mix from the local shop was the best. 
  • Not really a fan of sweets these days. Much prefer some chocolate raisins. :)

  • I can get behind chocolate raisins too keeponknitting….in fact anything sweet or chocolate coated 😁
    The pic n mix was the charm as I lost the pound (again) this morning! Imagine how much I could have lost if I’d eaten the whole bag 🤭
    MrWW was on nights last night so I’m tiptoeing around. WW dog went for a nice sit in the garden in the rain and I managed to get up to 2k in steps just by marching around her in the grass, along with emptying the dishwasher and feeding the furries before we went out. I need to wait for her to sleep soundly and then I should be able to sneak out for a walk around the beach and forest track without setting her off on a barkathon. If she thinks we are all inside she’ll sleep soundly and not wake MrWW up. I have only been getting to 7 or 8k on workdays so need to get over the 10k today and tomorrow. 
    I am planning a full day of no spending…wish me luck! 
    I hope you all have a good day ⭐️
