Saw a mouse climbing up the wall by the bedroom window at 3am but I am choosing to believe I hallucinated it.
And the boiler is dripping again.
And we have to have an 8pm video call about the build this evening.
I am feeling tired and stressed and overwhelmed. My profile pic is being particularly true right now, feels like this week has been going on for a fortnight and it's only Tuesday 😂😭
Anyway, we carry on:
Usuals
More food bits to mums
Pest control appt finally booked. Big up to them for their hold music being Rat in Mi Kitchen
40 minute walk asking pawnbrokers about laptops. It was a no but at least I asked ✔️
Found 5p
Online enquiry about laptops
Survey
Did my prize social media ✔️
Quarter wussy situps
Receipt survey
Spec work
20 minute carpet walk
Entered some competitions, today I'm mostly looking forward to winning 1k
Dinner is mash from the freezer if it hasn't gone too grim, with baked beans and grilled peppers

I can't believe the mouse is still at large. You are right. Time to turbo-charge your actions!!
Talking of pawnbrokers and the like...Do you have any odd bits of gold? An odd earring or two. Apparently gold prices are sky high. A friend just sold a few tiny bits for a surprisingly high amount!
Yay to wussy situpsIf you have built castles in the air, your work should not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them

It is absolutely typical for us to get the one mouse in the world that doesn't like peanut butter @doingitanyway 😂
No spare gold knocking around sadly and the stock market is strangely silent on the topic of circa 1997 Claires Accessories pieces4 -

I spent a lot of time and money in Claire's when my daughters were growing up. There definitely should be a high value attached to any surviving pairs of earrings, hair bands etc.
sending positive vibes for a useful, productive call tonight and that progress can be made.2
