Both yesterday and Wednesday turned out a wee bit spendy. Not Needs but Needed-Wants, if you get what I mean.
I got some sample pots of paint to try and now an area of my wall looks like a patchwork quilt! I think I have decided though, so it was worth the £4.25 per little pot. I don't call them wants and the cost is part of what I have saved for this work anyway.
No, what was spendy was buying a couple of outer pots for two of my indoor plants. I just decided I was totally fed up of looking at tatty brown plastic pots on tatty brown plastic saucers. They look loads nicer in proper containers (and will be easier to water without spilling out onto the sideboard) so I reckon that is money well spent!
I also bought a new door mat as the old one was in a poor way.

I was so pleased at personal training on Wednesday. Back to full pelt and not one twinge or ache from the old back. It's obviously fine again now. I was stiff from Groove but that's different!
Then it was Governors' meeting and now it has been confirmed by the trustees I can say that the extra responsibility I have taken on is co-vice chair of the Governing Body. There's two of us because I can go to daytime meetings, etc, but wouldn't be much use at leading the Gov meetings if Liz, the chair, was away because of my hearing issues.
Today, after Chris and I had our usual coffee and natter, I got a few more sample pots of paint and then took my collection of stuff down to the local food bank where I met an old friend why I haven't seen since before lockdown. They seemed very happy with what I had brought so I'm going to do it through this year - one thing for each day of the month, taken along on the last Thursday of the month because that is when it's open.
The sun shone brightly yesterday and my French windows looked an utter disgrace so I got out the Karcher thingy and did insides and outs and they do look loads better now. Not totally perfect but they were filthy and now they are better.
It has rained overnight, of course!

It's Slimming World today and then Alex is coming over for lunch which is very nice. I have washing, a bit of housework, all the usual stuff and I must remember to read the meter and finalise the accounts although they are pretty much done really..
It should be a really pleasant day!
Hope yours is too. xx
