Make it a fantabulous weekend xx
2026's challenges: 1) To rebuild our Emergency Fund to at least £5k.
2) To read 50 books (12/50) 3) The Re-Shrinking of Foxgloves 8.1kg/30kg
Remember....if you have to put it on a credit card, extend your overdraft or take out a loan to buy whatever it is, you probably can't afford it, as that's not your money, it's somebody else's!2 -
Thanks all. So far I’ve made two coffees with the new machine fairly successfully but need more practice. The first one didn’t have a crema because I didn’t pack the coffee down enough but the second one did. I can’t see Mr SA getting the hang of it though. The freshly ground coffee beans smell amazing.
Just took the dog on the park and now really must make a start on the cleaning.
Today’s exercise is dog walking (done), Zumba and strength training.
Tonight’s dinner is air fried salmon with lime and coriander rice and stir fried vegetables.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping) -.literally have been run over by a bike, mobility scooter and a car - still here 💪0 -
happy birthday weekend. I hope you get to enjoy a relaxing coffee on your hanging chair today - perhaps when MrSA has his siesta?
