    So glad I am working from home today as I feel washed out, have very low energy levels and all I want to do is sleep. Did manage to pack my parcels this morning ready to post tomorrow, would normally post after work, that's not going to happen today.

    Definitely going to have a nap in my lunch hour.

    Early finish as I started early this morning. Plan for the rest of the afternoon is to put another line of washing our as the sun is currently shining, take the dog for a walk and have a relaxing evening as I am still not feeling 100%.

    Busy day, visit to the accountant to drop off my accounts, before work, normally wait until about this time of year as they process them quicker, have them back next week and I can pay my tax bill.
    Called at the tip shop and dropped off a boot full of stuff, pleased its out of the house. Will slowly get another load ready over the next few weeks. Have two bags of books that need dropping to the Charity Shop on the weekend. I was very good when I looked around the tip shop and did not buy anything for myself or my business.
    Added £25.35 to my 3-6 Emergency Fund/ August Challenge, pay out from Prolific and Vinted, signature updated. 
    Started to wash the holiday clothes as it been a fab drying day. May need to get a few dresses as some of mine are a bit tight, will have a look on Vinted see if there is anything I fancy, if not I will make do with what I have.

    Rang in sick this morning, feeling dreadful, full of head cold, sort throat and aching all over. Duvet day is called for, will find something on Netflix to watch. Haven't felt this ill for a long time.  :(

    Felling better today than I have for the last few days, so making the most of the energy I have. Line of washing out and some ironing done.

    Mr D has been doing the dog walks, if I feel up to it later we will have a short walk, as I have missed walking the dog and I need the exercise.

    Wrapped a few parcels to be posted tomorrow, may do some listing later

    Just finished work for the day! Love being able to start early and have an early finish. More books taken to the charity shop this morning, still have a few hundred to sort through. I have down loaded some apps, to see if some are worth selling.

    I have set up a locked Monzo pot of my 3-6 Months Emergency Fund challenge and I have transferred £396.10 into there today from other accounts, I want to get the first three month of wages in there ASAP roughly £5000, then I will start on six months. Total is currently standing at £649.12, if I can fill this buy Christmas I will be very pleased.

    Going to potter about on eBay and Vinted for an hour and complete any surveys that come my way.

    Picked my accounts up early this morning, will take a couple of days to be proceeds and I will pay my tax early next week.  :) 
    Moved some money from the tax account over to my Monzo pot as I always overestimate the amount needed, also received a pay-out from Prolific and some bits sold on market place.

    3-6 Months Emergency Fund £819.30.
    August Challenge £76.68

    Creeping up slowly.  :)

    Booked annual leave for Friday so a 4 day weekend to look forward too. Need to get some work admin job completed this afternoon as I have an out and about day tomorrow.
