In the Meantime

Glad you got the tech frog sorted out.  I really, really need one of those kind robots now so if you find one will you send me the direction???   Please! XX
Hope your break gives you some well needed respite and you come back feeling refreshed. 
One day you'll look back on all this and think 'how the hell did I get through all that', but the lovely thing is that you will get through it, and things will fall into place.  (((hugs))) XX

Well done on tackling all those frogs.

Eek sounds like a frog massacre in your neck of the woods. 
Maybe you could try kissing one, see what happens 🤣🤣🤣

Good luck with the frogs.

So back after a break.  I have moved my creative work on and met some cool people. Got a lead to an opportunity I would not have known about.  All good 

The coach travel was an eyeopener. It will be fair to say it isn't my favourite method of travel. OTOH it was cheap and enabled me to do what I wanted to do.

I ate what I was given and was thankful. It wasn't how I generally eat, so I'm really craving veggies and lean protein.

I've been offered the cottage again so going to go there tomorrow to continue the creative stuff. I'm in the zone creatively and I want to stay there. I am already packed and can use the wm when I get there.  I found some cheap train tickets so that's good. I will eat YS, pulses and veggies whilst away, to keep the cost down. Ironically frugal eating is also better nutrition for me normally, well it is the way I do it.

I've switched some funds to PBs for various reasons. You need a clear month before they enter you into a drawer so did that on Friday and will be in the November draw. 

House wise, nothing came up that was suitable whilst I was away. There is one I'm sort of interested in from before I went away. It is massively overpriced so waiting for the price to come down. If it goes, so be it, as has lots of work needing. Hoping something comes up that I can view soon.  Then if the one mentioned is still on the market I can see that at the same time. 

I am feeling panicked about not having my own home. I am hyper aware of my lack of privacy. It does not feel as bad when I am away, so roll on tomorrow.

Hope everyone is ok

Glad to hear that opportunities are arising and creativity is flowing. We also added to pb on Friday to be entered into November.

I hate it when the 1st falls on a weekend.  Of to check when the results are out.  That's on the site where you don't need to log in just put in your holder number.

I use the prize checker app. Next results are 3rd Oct.  I normally check just after midnight !
