Hi there, how are you all today? Welcome to my recent new followers, it's lovely to see you! And thank you to all who have commented of late. I see we are all pretty similar when it comes to the National Lottery! Yes just how lovely it would be to look after those nearest & dearest to us as well as enjoying some financial freedoms ourselves.
So here I am, the last two days off of work before back on the bike and back to the grindstone on Monday morning. I am still massively grateful I have left the other awful place I worked at before but I am not going to pretend I'm looking forward to going back to work after such a nice week off! I think that's probably another thing we're mostly all in agreement on isn't it? But it has been lovely with a good balance of relaxation, busy times and seeing friends and my Mum too.
So it's a fairly sunny day today but fresh...the wind is a little chilly but it's good washing drying weather for the towels and other "whites" I washed overnight. I was awake at about 8.30am this morning when postie knocked for a signed delivery and I was up & about properly not long after that. I have given the kitchen and bathroom a clean and I really should give the lounge a once over but I appear to be glued to the sofa with Liverpool v Everton on the radio! Anyway all housework was done on Tuesday so it's hardly a hovel. I'll get my act together when the game finishes and whip the vacuum cleaner around and a duster.
We're off out tonight to a comedy show. I bought a couple of tickets for Jo Caulfield a while ago with the intention of taking a lady I work with, as a thank you for all the lifts she'd given me to work over the Winter period but unfortunately it didn't pan out as her sister subsequently booked the same date for her wedding...how very dare she! Some people are all self self self aren't they? Only joking obviously. So anyway, hubby is coming with me tonight - it's the first night out since his birthday treat in February when we went to see the Spaghetti Western Orchestra (who were brilliant). I am looking forward to going out, it is a bit of a drive but not too bad. Part of me would like to just snuggle up on the sofa tonight with a film but I will go out and hopefully have a good giggle.
Tomorrow I am really hoping will be dry even if not sunny as I would like to get out for a walk and get some fresh air/exercise. I am carrying some extra weight at the moment even though my friends have said they can't see where, I know that I am as two pairs of scales have told me so! So I really need to start getting some more exercise as well as watching what I eat for a while. I'm still fitting into all my clothes though so it's hopefully salvageable!
Well I do hope that you are all having a good weekend, whatever that involves for you. Wish me luck for Monday....!
Bye for now. xx
Welcome
Hello and welcome to my blog. I've been getting some thoughts & feelings, exasperations and the odd happy moment down on the blog which helps my sanity and, I hope, provides a little entertaining read for you for a couple of minutes!
Right now I am mostly concentrating on getting through a rocky financial patch which I really hope will be cleared (all being well) by the end of Summer 2013. In the meantime I need to concentrate on continuing to do well in my "new" job (actually got it in Sept 2011 but it still feels new!) and living my life as frugally as possible.
Thanks for stopping by and if you leave me an encouraging comment, it'll make my day. :-)

You are lucky your post arrives so early we are lucky if we get it before 2 p.m.

Good luck for Monday - and remember it's a long time away so make the most of the rest of your holiday.

Hope today was better than expected! I just went back to work today after 12 days off (school holidays)...it's never as bad as I think it's going to be. Hope you enjoyed your comedy show!
