Fridays Mo 52 week Money Challenge - Week 19....Took midweek change from the money pot.

I used a different collage app which reduced the quality of the pictures so I can't increase this size as I normally do. Anyway, it's week 19 of the year and of the challenge. As normal, I decided it was easier to take change from the money pot rather than give the correct change. You know that's how many vending machines make more money by demanding 'correct change' so if you put in more you never get any change. Have you being cheated that way? I have.

So starting from the lower left picture and working upwards and clockwise or to the right. I have a twenty quid note. The next picture is the twenty quid note with the money pot. I opened the money pot took my change of one quid out. The following picture is me plonking the twenty quid into the post. After that is closing the pot with my one quid change outside the box.

I had to change some notes, so I took from change from the money pot. Yes, breaking the rules again, but you know what? It was bound to happen. Had to break a twenty to give someone a tenner (ten pound note).

I wish I could say how interesting and inspiring this challenge is but it's not. It's a down right pain and irritating. It's always on my mind how I'm going to meet next week, be it time wise to take pictures or where I'm going to get the cash from. Its sucks. Why am I doing it? It's a challenge and I want to see how far I can get.

I'm thinking of moving this to my weekly round up. Maybe even my movie/film night since that is falling behind due to work. However this week I didn't get DVD movies, anyway I reported them to the place but they may come tomorrow. There is normally a backlog with the post/mail after a bank holiday.

Up Date on Happenings: Newly Single & 17% pay raise.

Hey Everyone, So update since my last entry. Well I had a brief fling with Mr Sexy Guy and decided he wasn't the one for me. He was cool but I learned the difference between lust, chemistry and personality. It just didn't tango for me. I'm still grossly overweight, well, fat. I don't think there is anything wrong with being called fat. I am fat. I need to lose weight but that means getting organised and stop eating delicious food. Then again my knees are hurting me and joints feel the ache. I also haven't been to the gym in three months despite paying for it. But when I do, I normally go for the sauna, hot tub and steam room session. I've thought of cancelling the exorbitant membership but in the climate apart from bills it's the one thing that is just for me...that when I use it. Work is fine, managed to get a 17% pay raise. A big thanks to my boss who also pushed for it. It's good to work for people who support you in that matter. I think tha

HAPPY NEW YEAR - LET THE GOALS ROLL

Hello all. Happy New Year! So last year was awesome for me because I managed to achieve one goal. The biggest goal which was to get a new job. And that came with financial reward as well. Yay! It was hard, challenging, horrible. I hate change but I had to get out of the rut I was in. Dudes, I was desperate to move. So I dug deep, did my interview practice, attended a number of interviews and hit one. Yay. Now longer gaming. I didn't need the escapism with my new positive work environment. I also abandoned the iPhone family and went Android. To cut a long story short, I got bought an iPhone 8 but it was faulty - however Apple weren't transparent about their return policy - ALWAYS ASK ABOUT RETURN POLICY. Nor did they believe the phone was faulty. It was. Anyway I was so disgusted the arrogance of the 'apple people', I decided instead of getting a replacement to spend my money elsewhere. I'm still part of the Apple family. But the Apple Store sales assist

Goals - one thing at a time - weekly or less frequent blog. Yoga was HARD! Still on track with eating plan,

Despites all my good words, I am slipping back into old bad habits and overloading myself with things to do. Distractions. Everything is important. So I've decided to get tough with myself and focus on my major goal. The one that will be most beneficial to me and a causality of that will be writing this blog daily or near daily. So I'm going to be focusing on my major goal and push myself to focus and I think all the other activities, and I mean a lot are diluting from the process. This means getting rid of non-value adding activities. Oh dear, I sound rather corporate. My week so far. If Pilate nearly killed me, then in Yoga was the firing line. OMG! What is it with these gym classes being so dynamic! When I mean dynamic I mean break-into-a-sweat dynamic. I'd never hadn't had such a difficult class - obviously I was the largest. Okay - let's go fat-shaming- don't you just love that word? I was the fattest by a long stretch. And the unfittest. My body was ou
