Tell Us About Your Day

boring boring boring and boring

and did I mention boring

Sounds good ..I made curd myself too. But Ive never heard of Meyer lemon here?

and that's a wrap.

the end of easter sunday and I've eaten a crap roast lamb and some chocolate

so exciting

anyway now I have some relaxation music on. my tranquility cd.. its nice

It's Monday so that usually brings a busy work day for me.

Too lazy to watch a whole film?

Respect!   

I've been doing the cooking. I also went to the garden centre with my sister. It was such a lovely and sunny day, it was well worth it.

I just wish we'd spent longer there!

I did the supermarket shop yesterday. Everything will seem a day out all week now

When that happened to me, I just closed my purse and buy only when desperate. I eat whatever is in the house, I cut open 'empty' toothpaste tubes, and make similar savings. I buy nothing really. I turn down the heating, and wear extra clothes. I do everything to avoid being overdrawn or need to borrow. I just needed to wait until my paypacket arrived at the end of the month. I have never liked robbing Peter to pay Paul.

It usually worked for me, and that month taught me to behave more sensibly.

I just got my phone number transferred over to the new cell provider. Yay! I guess trying it before the long weekend was the problem?

Also went grocery shopping and actually took two kids with me - I'd gotten used to shopping alone and having all the work to do. The boys were good together and not too hyper as we shopped, so I might not have to do one at a time as I used to do pre-pandemic. Times changing as they age!

I am with you on credit and debt, but I suspect, I may have got it wrong. Maybe I would have had an easier time by managing my debt in a sensible fashion. I do have the mental ability for that.

I used to have a clerk with a total credit card debt of just under 3 times her salary. She was completely out of control, and wasn't helped by her husband who was just as bad. They had this stupid mentality, that if one spent, so could the other...

She was smart enough, just money foolish.

As children both my husband and I came from very poor families. It was always a case of counting pennies and luxuries were few and far between.

But both sets of parents were of the opinion that if you couldn't pay cash for something then you couldn't afford it. And none of them ever got into debt, something that has been focal in our lives too.

I have always been proud of the fact that while we might not have much, not the newest car or the most fashionable clothes what we have is 100-percent ours, paid for in full and we owe no one a penny..( excluding the mortgage of course)

I do the same and it's paid automatically each month. There must be a lot of people who don't though otherwise credit cards would be less of a winner for the banks

Another day at work, I'm so excited. It looks like I have a motivation problem this morning...

having a bad day, but this is me we're talking about- so is it any wonder?

had no sleep again, making it almost 7 weeks

was told by my postman this morning (out of all people) that it's been ages since I've had a good day, so may as well give up. (charming!)

breakfast didn't really hit the spot- I had pineapple and a mint tea

checked emails and watched some tv, wet myself 3 times today all ready (3 times!), clicked my back, and that's me for the day- having sausages for dinner and the thoughts all ready making me sick, so great. not eaten good for a whole week either.
