      Thank you 🥰 It was long overdue, I just hadn’t thought to ask for one before. My boss was so sweet about it all, I can’t remember if I have mentioned this already but the day I asked for a payrise he told me he’d actually put a request in a few weeks before because he’d realised I should have had one ages ago 🤣

    Best was getting 75% of the floors cleaned! Worst was my paid helper was so slow I had to vacuum, then she mopped. The whole point was for the helper to do both. My back has been hurting for days! Going to find a different helper.

    • @budgetsdreams
      @budgetsdreams  Місяць тому +1

      Thanks Josh 🥰 Yeah, I been doing a whole bunch research since then to get clued up on what to ask him. There is some debate about what is the best technique and he doesn’t have very many results photos available online so I need to see if he has more in his office or a way for me to speak to past patients. I’ve found reviews online, and from a handful of lippy patients one was very unhappy and the others are super recent. So he might not be my guy but still gonna have a chat and see what he does.

I’m really on it now too, not just because of the legs but because I got some bloods done last week and it turns out my liver is very unhappy 😢 I’m waiting for follow-up but my guess it’s fat so getting on it!

    • @budgetsdreams
      @budgetsdreams  Місяць тому

      Oh, it’s really not interesting haha! But… when I was really young I was very into horoscopes and all the related birthstones and sign stones. Back then some books said garnet and some said ruby. Garnet was cheaper so I just bought things that were garnet. Then, when I was around 15 places were getting pretty consistent on it being ruby so I accepted that. My brother actually bought me a really beautiful ruby ring for my 16th which sadly got broken a few years later, it was horrible and painful… that is a story in itself haha! So anyway, since the heartache from that breaking I haven’t really been into so much. So, when Ben said “pandora said it’s your birth stone garnet” I just rolled with it haha! Until the lovely Jenn put me right in the comments lol

    Fantastic you are going for a consultation. As someone who lives with chronic illness, paying for something that will change your daily life is worth every single penny.
    I’ve had a good week, hit my work deadlines, and was super spontaneous today and booked something I maybe shouldn’t have! Although I’m so glad I did.

But it will cost tens of thousands so it’s not ever likely but we’ll see. Yay for hitting work deadlines ⭐️ And I REALLY want to know what you’ve booked!!

    My biggest success and at the same time my biggest frustration is our garden. I have been working on a major tidy up of our garden as it has been a bit neglected for the last few years due to the craziness that my life has been. I've managed to remove two very large bushes, but I have to take up our patio to remove a very invasive plant that a previous owner had planted, and I didn't know and because I've not been able to work in the garden I hadn't realised it had spread so much 🫣
    Love the affirmation for this week. It is soooo true 💖💖 I would never have thought I was strong enough to get through what we have been through as a family the last 10 years, but here I am, still standing and somehow coping with whatever challenges come each day 😊❤
