That is a nice sized bonus.

caterpillars are my can't stand thing. Make my skin crawl. I am guilty of avoiding the veg plot mid summer onwards once I spot the first ones.

Nice surprise on your bonus!

Thanks @beanielou, @cheerydaff, @redofromstart, @CCW007 😊 I’m expecting to loose 40% of it in tax but even so it will certainly help! 

Targets for the day (apart from work ones!):
- claim expenses now I have had a third version of the hotel bill from the Manchester trip … 🙄
- chase down answer on timing belt v. chain ….
- hopefully, get out for walk at lunchtime - I will take my waterproof with me for light rain but if it’s monsooning I will have to admit defeat - not much fun sitting in wet trousers! 
- change all bed linen 
- wash hair
- start looking and deciding on easy, healthier food options for next week so I can plan the shop for this week
- transfer the cat chip data to our address 

If I get this lot done I will be very happy 😊

So how did I do …?
- finally got expenses claim submitted - even asked my boss for help at one point in utter desperation to just log a meal receipt(!) but it became very obvious that he doesn’t actually use the system, his PA does it for him …. 🙄
- got an answer about the timing belt - it is a timing belt but mine is not recommended to be changed until 2030 😊
- got out at lunchtime but only for one circuit of the site - ended up talking to a new op on the agency who has a lot about him - think we might have accidentally found a talent 😊
- bed linen changed before dinner! 👏💪😊
- decided to leave hair wash for tomorrow night - it didn’t need it and it will mean it looks nice for when I meet my friend for lunch on Saturday 
- went through all recipes I have as well as my summarised recipes index list of what recipes are stored where this evening and cooked butter bean lemon mash for the first time in years this evening to sub for the frozen chips Mr KK had 😊
- cat chips - not done … my head is mush - this can wait until the weekend.

Congrats on the extra bonus - that will help a lot I'm sure. 

Definitely be kind to yourself. Between you, you have a lot going on. Hope the kitties settle soon. LOL at Mr KK's shock at the mess they left.

Thank you 😊
Mr KK, after clearing their preferred tray three times in the space of 90 minutes this evening, said firmly that the Pooh Porter was done for the day! 😂😂😂😂

Have just ordered a new head torch for dark night litter tray clearing …. 

Oh the glamour … <said in utter deadpan> 😉😂😂😂😂

Total glamour. Do I confess to bagging it up and chucking it out the back door and then dealing with it later?
