Rolling Down the Green Hill Towards REtirement 😊🌄💚💜

greent

Hi sh - I'm going to aim to finish no later than 2pm this week - and hopefully 1pm ish. I'd also like to wfh for min 2, ideally 3, days this week. I could easily get signed off again if it gets too much.

Small flebay sale today of a random item DH had for a Xmas pressie last year - good to see it gone. 

Successful shopping trip yesterday for a second suit for ds2 for school. We've bought several but none have been 'right' - he like this one and it was a bargain at £90 - have ordered a second pair of trousers which will be ready in around 10 days. Also picked up some more shirts for school for him from pr1mark (he really likes the fit) and a couple of jumpers - the latter being needed as he only has 1 long sleeved top in his wardrobe - a Xmas jumper, so not that suitable for everyday wearing! 😁😁

Have some items to list on fb00k, but don't think I can be bothered today...

Sunny day here - sat here with patio doors open and washing outside on the line. Went for a walk down to the canal basin this morning and saw loads of ducks and our local Swan family

A suit for school? You can't even get me in a suit for work!

Hope work is kind to you!

Haha! Most of our local VIth forms require a suit, I think (at least all the grammars do - I've not looked at any of the comps...)

killerpeaty

Really? Maybe it's just a thing now, having said that I don't know any grammar schools nor school goers..

Just as long as you look after you Missus... top priority

Thank you! I worked from home 3 days last week and this week I only went in on Tues. I have got a fit/ sick note from this week until half term - but it says I may be fot from work and could work feom home/ reduced hours - it just formalises it. 

3 sessions done - 7 to go ,Am surprisingly tired already....  but I know that I'm pushing myself, so I'm my own worst enemy....

Money wise - roll on pay day! We are literally down to less than £5 in the current account - my payday is 28th... I'd like to not transfer any money over from any of the other accounts, so we'll see.... I have a £10 a5da voucher that I can use on milk DH needs to claim expenses- maybe £2000 worth...... 🙄🙄 sigh...

Ouch to outstanding expenses!

Listen to your body and be kind to you. Glad you have the weekend to recover 

Karmacat

Wow, yes, what SH said!  You're cutting it a bit close to the bone in terms of your health, greent, please take care **single-arm-hug**

killerpeaty

How can he have so much outstanding?! 

Please give yourself a little rest now and again.

DH hasn't claimed expenses in months and months, KP (and is away tonight, so racking up more.... sigh...)

I've been working not too many hours - I promise!

Finished my radiotherapy today - whoop whoop!! That's all my active treatment done 🥳🥳

Won £150 on my PB today - 2 x £25 and 1 x £100 - I've never won more than a £25 prize before (but I have won several £25 in the same month)

Ooh - don't know if I said, but DS2 was 1 Mark off a grade 9 for one of his GCSEs - we went for a review of marking and they found the extra mark - so that's another grade 9 for him now (I think that makes 6) - he was pleased (I wasn't going to apply for the review - we got it in just before the (internal) deadline)

Off to London for a family wedding this weekend

2 and a half weeks until half term - can't wait!
