Morning, has your reaction settled down any. Hope dd has a great time at party.

Ive been to the shops just catching up with some tv now, hoping to get the garden tidied up a bit lots of leaves everywhere and they’re wet n soggy 😩 x

Yes thank you Parky, I’m on best behaviour though. 

I’ll need to do the leaf sweep at some point as well too! Yuk 

The party was amazing. There was a live snake there. A big python called Liz which I held for most of the night. X

Oh, that sounds great! I remember taking my DD, when she was 7 or 8, to a local museum, to a « snake event ». She got to hold a python, and was cool as a cucumber as it wrapped itself around her leg! Snakes are amazing creatures. 

DD was great until it started moving it’s head then she panicked!

Well my week off is over now. 

Money wise I did okay. All things paid for and paid a little extra off debt. I rounded down my bank account today as well and will likely do that every Sunday. 

Watched a programme about plastic this morning and felt sick at one of the features. I feel so helpless to the world but will do my best to keep my plastic and waste down. It really did have a huge impact watching what it’s doing. 

I also saw how there’s an online fish place selling the daily catch delivered within 24 hours. It’s called pesky fish and might be worth a look if you eat fish. It sells the catch of the day, supports our UK fish industry and everything it comes in is recyclable. So much of our fish is exported abroad. I love eating fish and it’s something I can eat on my diet. It has fish that are unheard of but also recipes on there too. I think one of my resolutions will be to eat a lot more sustainable next year. Local butcher has already started with me. I have now found the fish place too. I’m going to try and grow my own herbs again. I get them started okay but then can’t keep on top of them. I think the key is going to be to cut and freeze them. I’m going to do the same with veg, buy them at the end of their life and freeze them. I have two freezers so might as well make the most of them. 

I didn’t expect to have started my targets for next year so quickly! 

The biggest target for me is to clear that loan. It’s been a burden on me for a while (of my own doing) I’ve let it just slip and paid the minimum for most of the year, but now I’m on it again. 

I’ve made a strong start on Christmas too. Next pay day I’ll have the majority ordered and sorted. I’ve got all the little ones done, I do need something for DD. 

I should have two more £25 vouchers before Christmas so that’s going on some food and presents. That will actually buy the majority of the other presents. I also got a voucher for online shopping at a shop I’ve not shopped at. It’s spend £60 and get £15 off. That can be used to buy some presents too. £45 is over my normal shop but I can use it to stock up on cleaning things and things I use and £45 isn’t too bad. It’ll mean I’m well stocked on a lot of cleaning things though, It won’t be wasted on just anything. 

My mum is asking what I want for Christmas. I’m not sure what to ask for. It’s November tomorrow already, time is getting away. X

This year has flown by, it’s frightening really how quickly time seems to be passing.

Today has felt sooo long it’s amazing what an extra hour does. 

I always do my recycling one thing I would like to do it get milk in glass bottles but unfortunately I can’t justify the extra expense right now. Maybe that’s something I should seriously think about and cut down on something else. 

I hate fish and the smell of it oh no 🤣🤣

Yip, Christmas will be on us before we know it. 

Hope you’ve enjoyed your week off. How’s your living room looking x

I have glass milk but that’s something I opted to do a few years ago. It is more expensive like you said but it is picked up every monday by the milkman and I guess reused. 

The living room is still the same. I’m still waiting for my sofa to arrive so sat on cushions. 

I love fish! My mum hates it so I grew up thinking fish came out of a box with bread crumbs on it 😂

is anyone thinking about putting their tree up? I love putting it up and I’m excited with my living room being like this x
