Dad treated me to an early dinner and we had a nice catch up.
My hair straightener came, it works! And it seems easy to use.
I've asked for a few days off at the end of the month and I hope it'll be approved 🤞

I’ve been struggling with something at work and i’ve finally managed to do it today, it’s a small obstacle i’m glad i got over! gave me a bit of confidence

there’s a charity shop by our house but it always has really good stuff there. my 2yo loves it and always gets dead excited to go in!

i’ve managed to have a shower, do my hair and have the house all sorted by 8pm. usually it’s well later so i can just relax now

1. Finished decluttering and tidying my daughter's bedroom. It was a right tit tip, so I'm glad it's done.

2. Got offered a job interview for a job I applied for in early Sept. I was gutted when I didn't hear anything back but better late than never.

3. Had a Blue Riband for the first time in like 20 years and forgot how bloody nice they are!

I bought some flatpack shelves the other day which weren't very good ... there were rough sides on each of one of the shelves and the holes didn't line up properly. I'm handy on the tools so could've worked with the hole alignment issue (drilling new holes and filling in the other ones), but the rough side issue wasn't workable so I returned them this morning, intending to exchange. They didn't have any of these particular ones left ... so the salesperson gave me the next size up for the same price. They also took the time to open the box and check everything was as it should be. Huge win - these new ones are fabulous! They also have a glossy finish which I really like (the other ones were matte).

I managed to buy toner for my printer via a buy one, get one free deal - saving a small fortune. The printer didn't cost a lot but the toner is super expensive.

I bought some folding outdoor recliner chairs from a local buy-swap-exchange site that were described as 'stuck' and very dirty. I paid $3 for them, brought them home and gave them a good clean-up with some cleaning products, my water blaster and a lot of elbow grease, and the screws a burst of WD40, and they look like new. I texted a photo to the person I bought them from and suggested that I just give them back to her as they're as good as new; she said she appreciated the gesture but was pleased they went to someone who will really appreciate them ... then she asked me to pop back round as she had some cool cushions to go with them, which she forgot she had. She wanted to gift them to me but I gave her $30 for them ... they're really nice swab-style waterproof cushions that she had made for the chairs. They're a teeny bit grubby, but will come up beautifully with a good clean.

Definitely winning today ⭐

  1. A friend dropped off a dozen fresh eggs from her hens, and a huge bag of lemons from her tree - so wonderful!
  2. I co-own a couple of coffee carts and we somehow overpaid what was owing in tax (strange, as our accountant does all this stuff), and are due for a $10k refund! Huge woohoo as we've been considering buying another one for some time now, and that will pay at least half of it.
  3. The forecast was for heavy rain today - and it started out that way - but now it's hot and sunny, and everything is looking so fresh and green.

Felt quite unwell today so had a pj day while my husband kept my son entertained, it was rubbish being poorly but I feel quite rested now thankfully.

Watching random videos of my son from a few years ago - he was so cute and funny.
