Progress not Perfection

I listed 5 items on eBay although thinking about pulling them and waiting until there’s an offer on selling fees 🤔 I have a few more things to add. I hate selling stuff and this is why I usually just bung unwanted items in the charity bag. 

Mr SA is driving me nuts as he’s just finished watching cricket and has turned straight over to football. I think not, let the TV battle commence 😆

I hope you win! I’m hiding from the Grand Prix 🤭

New Ninja sounds good

I won the TV wars 🙂

Meant to say earlier, how’s this for a weird coincidence - I was reading my book, Firefly Lane, in my hanging chair and in the story the women said they’d been friends since David Cassidy was cool. I started to feel raindrops so packed up and put the radio on in the kitchen. They were playing a David Cassidy song! Spooky! Reminded me I used to love David Cassidy when I was about 12/13, I was definitely going to marry him 🤣🤣

That's Monday done. Worked in the office today. Annoyingly I forgot to take my make up bag with me so couldn't brush my hair, renew my lipstick or apply handcream when I washed my hands. At one time I would've gone out and purchased said items but managed to survive the day without them, albeit with wild hair, bare lips and dry hands 😆

Not a NSD as I had to go to L*dl on the way home. The free bakery item wheel spin thing has been rubbish the past 3 spins keep getting sweet pastries which I don't like so haven't picked them up. 

Finances checked and I need to be careful this week as it's the last week of the 4 week budget period and I could quite easily go into an overspend if I don't keep a tight rein on it. I'm only buying things we really need this week, anything that can wait until another week won't get bought. I'm out for lunch with friends on Friday and this will involve train fares as well as food/drink but this is from a different pot of money.

Today's exercise was walking to/from work just under 20k steps so will go over that by bedtime. I'm also going to do the yoga/Pilates session I didn't get around to yesterday. 

Tonight's dinner is leftover aubergine curry from Saturday.

On the way to work this morning I took a detour from my route to look at the flowers that had been left for the 3 murdered people. There were so many flowers I could smell them a fair distance away. So sad.

SA, I take hand cream in and leave it in the ladies (can we still say that??) - it's surprising how few people use it. 

Do you have your own locker, where you could leave a brush, lipstick, etc?

We’re not allowed to leave anything in the toilets that’s personal. There is a block of 30 separate gender neutral toilet cubicles on each of the 9 floors so even if you could it would be unlikely that particular toilet was free. I have a 25% share of a locker and it’s crammed with everyone’s coffee/tea/cups/glasses. 

This is the first time I’ve forgotten it in years and I’m unlikely to do it again.

That’s the forfeit for being able to work from home. I do miss the days of having your own desk and storage but on the other hand being able to work from home is brilliant. I’d struggle to go back to having to be in the office all day every day now.
