You can do anything if you put your mind to it. x4 -
That's Wednesday done.
Worked in the office today. It was fairly quiet, I think probably a combination of train strikes and school holidays.
It's finally payday today - woo hoo! Treated myself to a coffee at work to celebrate 😆 Finances all sorted and in place ready to be decimated from tomorrow onwards.
Mr SA is being Mr Grumpy this afternoon. The scooter insurance company phoned him as he's broken the seat on his scooter, I think they've moaned to him as he's forever claiming off the insurance for various things that have broken. Now he's ranting about everything he can think of, he's almost like he used to be pre brain damage.
@warby68 I might have mentioned Liz Earle, I do often use her products and it is a good offer. I need to use up my vast stock of skin care/toiletries before I buy anything else though.
Today's exercise is walking to/from work 18,000 steps plus a live Zumba class at 6pm so will be well in excess of 20,000 steps.
Tonight's dinner is scampi, swede chips, asparagus, baby corn and sugar snap peas. I bought another two bags of frozen edamame beans from L*dl on the way home while they've still got them in stock as they're a very good price. I think I have enough bags to last me for the rest of the year now.
Ages ago I signed up for Tryit and my first parcel of free samples is being delivered today. I'd forgotten all about it, my name must've come up on the list. You have to try the items and leave a review then you're in line to receive your next lot of free samples.
I need to cash out from surveys today, have changed it from every week to the end of every month. Annoyingly I'm just £1 away from being able to cash out £25 on Opinium so that will have to roll over to June's balance.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)5 -
