    Number today. 
    Went to pay for drinks and breakfast at a lovely little cafe and my friend insisted she was paying. I’d planned to pay but she was very insistent. 🤣
    that’s twice this week this has happened from different friends! It’s because I’ve done things for them that have helped…but not cost money. So I’m reflecting on my good fortune, especially as I also won a very smart handbag in a raffle earlier this week and kept it, rather than listing to sell!
