    Congrats on the possible promotion! I love adding to my diary every day as I find it therapeutic and helps me stay on track and accountable. That plus I have nobody to talk to about my debt with who 'gets it' or who wouldn't judge me so it's all about freedom of speech here :D x

  • Had what I’m considering a productive day but previously I’d have focused on how little I’ve done, it may not be as much as I’d like but it’s more than it was this morning! 
    Cleared 21 items out of the house, did two lots of washing, a food shop (£58 in Aldi, so should only need milk for the rest of the week) cleaned the front room, did the washing up.  

    Working tomorrow and then have a small area in the kitchen id like to get cleared in the evening.  Aiming for a nsd tomorrow.

    I bet clearing that area of the kitchen tomorrow will make you feel great as I do love it when I have a mad deep clean!
