Afternoon/Evening?

So.. im sick sick sick of seeing clutter everywhere its honestly doing my head in and weighing me down.. I see it and i think why can't I just put it away? So going forward im going to force myself to put it away. I dont enjoy cleaning at all but I think its not the "cleaning" it's the finding a place to put stuff that I dont enjoy..

Morning!

Was woken up by my dog at 1am barking because it was too warm for him in the bedroom, so I grabbed my pillow and off we went downstairs.. he was led like a little frog with all his legs sprawled out and I went back to sleep for a few hours on the sofa.

My manager wants to speak to me today, hes doing interviews for that job I told him I wasn't really interested in. I have a 1-1 meeting with him at 2pm, ive got an inkling he wants to talk about the job more in debth and see if he can persuade me to take the role.. im open minded about it, ill see what he has to say.

Debt wise, anything I make on vinted goes straight to my loan now! Im thinking of maybe chasing out my surveys at the end of each month paying towards a debt and then starting again on a fresh month.

Working this weekend until 12pm, usually sooner if im done quicker, last time I was finished by 10.30 but maybe due to the weather ill come in at 5.30 tomorrow so it doesnt get too hot by the time I have to lumber around all the discs and car batteries!

Weekend as follows,

Saturday 12pm boot sale and 2pm boot sale

Sunday 7.30 (maybe) 10 and then 12! When all the boot sales are on i basically never get a chance to fully "rest"

Evening all!

Weekend went as good as can be, we did the same things as usual.

Saturday -

12pm boot sale followed by charity shop and then we went to tkmax as they have the yellow sticker offers!

Sunday-

6am wake up, walked dogs around the block. Arrived at boot sale number 1 for 7.20 spent half hour there, then drove over to the second boot sale but that doesnt open until 10 so we went into the town and got our usual pastries from the bakery and I popped into the coffee shop to get our caramel latte and flat white.. can you guess who's is who? 😂 went to the boot sale for 9.40 waited until 10, spent 40 minutes there. Made our way onto the third boot sale that opens at 12 but we was in the queue for 11.25. Spent around 50 minutes at this one and then tesco, mcdonald's and home! My OH is a reseller mainly trainers or consoles! So we do this every single weekend when its not raining.. so I dont really get a weekend off "working" although I know its technically not work for myself but its still tiring. Also OH always always buys mcdonald's or takeaway every weekend and we really need to stop doing it.

So nice relaxing bath now and early bedtime for me because im so sleepy!

I never knew there was that many car boot sales about. I am just getting back into like retro gaming so I am hoping to start getting out and about to some of these things

Morning all!

Just ticking away until payday now.. I had 4 empties in total that I've now recycled. I'm going swimming after work, going alone so kind of nervous not sure why! But I'm hoping I will enjoy it.

Swimming will be fine.
