    I find it so interesting watching your low buy updates and the diary looks super useful and a total bargain ☺️

    so glad you’re loving Fiona Cummins, I really hoped you would! well done on zero spend days across both accounts! £895 isn’t steep for rent these days, especially for a house/bungalow and so much outdoor space xxxx

    Enjoyed watching this vid. Love your 2nd hand bargains. The diary was a such good value with the staff discount too. Hope your work week goes well. How you manage to look after Nana etc & work with chronic illness is fantastic. I have arthritis so understand how tricky it can be at times.
    But hey it’s cooler this week week hurray lol 😂

    I've found compression stockings very helpful when on my feet at work for 6-8 hours, it really helps with my restless legs that I get more in winter than any other time of the year. Congratulations on finishing your second week in your new job!

    Hi Charlotte great vlog as always. That nail colour is gorgeous, it suits you.
    Regarding stomach/ bowel, adhesions etc from surgeries. What helped me is giving up all fruits .I don’t eat fried food or greasy food. I still eat meat & fish . I just try to be mindful what I buy & how I cook it . There was a lot of trial & error regarding diet & too many bowel blockages !

      Thank you, yeah I am in a bit of that situation at the moment where it is trial and error. I have stopped eating fruit and I KNOW I need to stop fried food too

      @@booksandbargains trust me I know how hard it is. Also I do still suffer with blockages & issues with stomach & bowels even though I do the above. It’s helped me & my daily living immensely not cured me. It can never just be about the diet can it , when the body has had trauma & full of adhesions from so much surgery. Two other things that can help moving your body, as we know with chronic pain ... Also drinking lots of water, hard to do especially when you already live on the toilet! I just wanna be pain free, curl up with a book eat fish & chips ,drink tea & of course have some cake 💛

    A great vlog as always, good news about the kidney stone. I've never tried it, but dry brushing is meant to help tired legs. Really glad you are enjoying work. Loving the low spend organising.
    If you and Victoria both enjoyed When I Was Ten then I have to read it! X

    Truly Madly Guilty was a weak one by Liane Moriarty and Nine Perfect Strangers was a mess :- D My favorite ones were Big Little Lies, The Husband's Secret and The Last Anniversary, haven't read the Hypnotist one and some other ones but I haven't felt like picking up a book by her in a few years 😅 The spending breakdown was fun, I also track all of my expenses :- )

    You've been doing a lot of reading and seeing what is or isn't staying! It seems like the right choice for you to let go liane moriarity if they just aren't working for you. Barry M nail polish are good quality.

    I read Nine Perfect Strangers and didn't like it either. I haven't picked up another Lianne Moriarty since. She's not an author for me.
