That sounds a productive day with a good mix of things. Glad you're doing the JSA and it's easily accessible. A pain about the bralettes but well done on being prompt returning them. I love bralettes but my somewhat buxom bosom does not

All the benefits went up 10% last year (?) just before the election.  Weird huh? 

I think it might also show how long it is since I last claimed 😉😊 I think it was £85 a week then.

I get utterly frustrated by how they keep changing the structure / design of these things … I have two mns bralettes from a while back that fit reasonably and are quite comfortable. Are either of these styles available now? Of course not! 🙄

If your father has good bra recommendations then by all means pass them on 😂

Ah! That would now be the £75 a week Universal Credit for those who have not paid in enough so do not qualify for JSA or unemployment figures ...... There is a whole new sub-strata of benefits.

Feeling really flat and meh … I think the clock change has proper nobbled me - I’m staying up to be aligned with Mr KK and try to reset my body clock, but my body is auto waking at the previous time so I am an hour short each night atm …. Sigh …

Being kind and not expecting too much of myself today 🤷‍♀️
Had a quick spin through the job websites - nothing new to apply for. No recruiters to push atm. 

Got out in the potting shed and sowed broad beans Aquadulce Claudia and two varieties of sweet peas as a start on next year 🌱🤞😊

Next breakfast and get dressed and go and see my friend, her amazing garden and have lunch at hers ❤️ I suspect that this will do me good. 😊

Enjoy seeing your friend.

Enjoy this time to do all the things that you were not able to do when you were working.  If you were still there you would be setting off in the dark, and getting home in the dark, so meet up with friends, sow your seeds, go to the cinema or theatre in the afternoon. Guilt-free!
The recruiters are excited about you and their commission.  You won't be without work for long, we all believe in you (sending  more mad Kate Bush dancing).
