Cheery's path to fulfilment - finishing the DIY, looking after myself, appreciating the garden 🌻

What an awakening for Mr C!
@Fortune_Smiles what does it mean when a parakeet is eyeing up your gaff to come in like happened to me the other day 😁

Well done on all the varied work Cheery, particularly impressed with you wielding a pitchfork after a day's work

Maybe you have the heating set too high @PennysIntoPounds 🤣

Ha, I was trying to make a little use of the last of the daylight! It doesn't happen that often (although more often in the summer 😂).

😂 @Fortune_Smiles, I'm still refusing to put mine on, maybe it thought I needed warming up with some feathers!

Impressive all the same Cheery, and good idea to make the most of any daylight, can't believe hibernation season is nearly upon us again

I'm still making it out into the garden for odd jobs when I get home early enough too - on that same basis, at this stage in the year that daylight is precious! 

Loving the visiting wren - how sweet! We had a sparrow fly in, say "eek!" and fly out again a few weeks ago!

Picked up two pictures from the framers - they look stunning. Well worth the investment. My next OAT is to decide on all the pictures for the room they are going in, and get them on the walls!

Thank you, I'd not heard of them! 

Evening chums 😊

Nowt much to report here. Had to make a trip to the village shop for milk today, but I'd given Mr C the last of my cash so had to build up enough to use the card. Never mind, I was pleased to see they had some veggie sausages in, so I might even have a sausage butty for breakfast tomorrow 😊

End of the work week for me, and it's been a tricky one. Well, one bit of it anyway. I'm evaluating something that someone else has done, and it is not coming up to scratch. Going to prove rather a tricky conversation in a couple of weeks I suspect 😬

Anyway. Tomorrow i am off for my first ever spa day with my sister 😁 Booked using a Wowcher. We booked it on the understanding it is a spa DAY with a treatment and lunch - but all confirmation just refers to the treatment, not the whole day 😂 so who knows. We'll see when we get there. I have all the receipts! Bizarrely lunch includes a bottle of Prosecco, which you CANNOT swap to a nice cup of tea because you can only do that at 'premium' locations 😂😂 Presumably they have a job lot of cheap prosecco they are desperate to get rid of 😂

Anyway, remaining pots totals while I'm here: 

Food & household: £257.55/£350
Diesel & parking: £224.49/£300
Joint treats:£133.50/£200
My spends: £71/£150
Mr C spends: £142.90/£150

Mr C has taken out £50 in cash for his personal spends, need to check if he wants to just log that as £50 off the total now (which means keeping it just for that), or whether he wants to keep logging spending. But not tonight! 

😊

Enjoy your day tomorrow.

We did a spa holiday at the end of August and the couples pedicure was supposed to include prosecco.  Then gave us a slumber spray and a massage instead, which was actually better as we both detest fizzy wine!

The only tthing not included in the all-inclusive package was decent tea and coffee which had to be purchased separately at the day spa users cafe!  Go figure!
