Gone with the Wind...... fabulous book! XXXXI Believe.....
That it isn't always enough, to be forgiven by others.
Sometimes, you have to learn to forgive yourself.
Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery
Today is a gift. That's why it is called the present.
happiness isn't achieved by getting extra things,
but by getting rid of the things that make you unhappy4 -
Today I am grateful for getting to the gym after a rather long break, for a simple day at work, for Pip enjoying his evening club, for easy food, for my book.What's your favourite film?I do like the Oceans ones - 8, 11, 12, 13...remove 7/100; read 3/10; ex 27/100; make /100; lose /10; save /1000; improve 12/100; protein 30/1005

Today was money juggling day in F0xh0les Towers. Savings accounts filled. Bills paid. Credit card brought down to £0.
86p Big N0M0 Chocolate Eggs bought from Saintsbobs. I am my own worst enemy. They are for 'Ron'.
Will be able to finalise budgets just after midnight. 🧚♂️.
Bought some more 🪴 🪴 for the garden. Only £13 spent, and then bought a 27th Anniversary watering can and fed my plants with Seaweed feed. Happy Days.
I don't have a favourite film. Maybe The Lost Boys? or Guardians of the Galaxy 3? I loved the soundtrack to Captain Marvel, but Wonder Woman was good fun too. I love a Marvel film.4/10/25Three Years Mortgage Free Yay!

I quite like The Bridges of Madison County, The Notebook & the film adaptation of When the Crawdads Sing. All 3 made me cry. Also loved all the Lord of the Rings & Hobbit ones, & the Avengers ones (so I can look at Thor 🤣)
Norwegian & exercises done before work, yoga with a pupil & then a walk after work (even jogged a bit to get home quicker for my tea!). Thankfully work went a lot better than the nightmare of yesterday afternoon!! Received good feedback from the parent of one of my pupils at a meeting this morning.
Quote of the day from a 7 year old "I think I just pee peed in my pants". I said we could change once inside. She laughed & said "not really, I just sweatted from my privates!" 😂 We'd just been doing the daily mile. Think I'll use that phrase in the future 🤣😂🤣
Pinned a customer into 2 pairs of trousers, then cut & pinned 2 pairs for someone else. Managed to see one, then got frustrated with my machine on the other pair & I was super tired, so saving doing them for another day.
Grateful for it staying dry until the last few minutes of my walk, funny children, a better afternoonUse it up, wear it out
Make do or do without!
If you see someone without a smile, give them one of yours 😃

Good morning guys
I like the Indiana Jones films, you can’t beat an oldie and any of the Disney princess
I’ve made a lovely list of what I need to have money for this month, and the next couple too. It just rolls on on my iPad , getting added to and deleted as needed. I love a good list. Chiggling away at the money part with my PADs.
Today I’m grateful for my lovely family, the weather being fine and comfy (not to hot or cold) and for it being Manchester tart day at work to celebrate it nearly being the end of the week ( I work Saturdays)
Anyway better get on
Have a lovely day and hugs to any that need ( or just want) one.
