An in-between phase

Well done for nailing the invigilating and enjoy the catchup with your friend

In a rather lazy mood after that very tiring week but dun:

Usuals
Survey
A third wussy situps

Popped some bits over to mum
Flat clean

An hour's walk as need to make up my steps
Beer time with Mr PIP

Mr PIP took an item to be sold so that's a few more quid in the flat pot and a thing off my to-do list 😊

Knackered! Hope everyone is having a good one 🍻

Happy Saturday 🍺

Well I woke up with period pains and Mr PIP woke up with a cold so productive day went out the window!

20 minute walk getting essentials

Admin
Tidying
Comping

Receipt survey

Survey cashout, shares to usual pots with a couple of quid in the Christmas pot to get it started

Prepped a nutritious pasta bake

Entered some competitions, today I'm mostly looking forward to winning wine and cash please

30 minute carpet walk

The Big Rain has just arrived with some thunder so I'm now going to hunker down on the sofa and enjoy a cosy evening doing very little. Hope everyone is having a lovely Sunday 🍻

Feeling a bit ropey with period today but best get it out of the way as much as possible before invigilating early tomorrow 🤞

Finished a book with Mr PIP, The Suspicions of Mr Whicher. Absolutely dreadful, cannot fathom why everyone loved it when it came out

Usuals

Quarter wussy situps

Ordered a birthday card for Mr PIP

Receipt survey

Lots of build admin
Our potential mortgage lender is getting right up our noses. Really, really hoping for a big money win so we can tell them to shove it

Shower and hairwash

60 minute carpet walk in sections (of time, not carpet)

Finished a book, A Little Book of Language by David Crystal. A delight, aimed at younger readers but thoroughly enjoyable

Did not go back to bed at any point which was an immense achievement

Well that was a pain with the MSE site being so intermittent again. Hope everyone especially @ladyholly is okay

In the meantime I cleaned the kitchen sink and completed enough surveys on a site to cash out a $25 reward for doing 500. Don't know if I'm impressed or appalled. Or human according to the dodgy MSE verification!

Up horribly early tomorrow for invigilating, was meant to be starting later but manager messaged and asked if I wanted to do extra shift and I can hardly turn down money if I want to enjoy my imaginary scenario where we turn around to the mortgage lender and say haughtily 'we will not be engaging in further speculation with you'.
In this scenario I am wearing a bonnet and a dress with several skirt layers and am pruning roses in a somewhat worrying way with my secateurs. I have really missed my calling as a Victorian dowager.

I love the imaginary scenario. I hope invigilating goes well

You do make me chuckle.

Oh yes being a Victorian Dowager really would be quite fun wouldn't it - you'd be well set up for epic levels of flouncing!

Am also up for being a Dowager, but perhaps slightly later than Victorian. I could model myself on the fabulous Maggie Smith as the Dowager Countess.
