    I adored "The canal boat cafe"!! Admittedly I remember very little of it, besides wooden carvings for some reason! I do love Cressida's books though, always get me out of a reading slump if I'm feeling a bit sluggish and don't fancy thinking too hard about what I'm reading :o)

    • @booksandbargains

      I think thats the thing, I did enjoy it while I was in it but it didnt give me the feels her other books tend to :)

    I read The Canal Boat Cafe. I can see what you mean about not remembering much about it . Oh, Wednesday vlog a treat on my day off.

    Well done on starting your new job! I'm also a checkout chick, but for Mr S.... Yes, definitely look after your feet. I usually wear black Skechers memory foam trainers, and usually get through one pair a year. Also, look after your mental and physical health 💜
    I use my breaks for listening to audiobooks or an easy read, so having that commute time is great for you 😊

    Lynn here on Hubby's phone mines playing up 😏, I dont want to interfere, but I reckon you should seperate your bills from your free spending as it were , because your bills have got to be paid and wont change anyway , only maybe once a year , so Id have a calender for bills and another for the rest of it , then it would be more clear , just a thought 🤔, good look in your new job , I know what Anxiety can cause I suffer terrible ly Take Care Love sending loads a Luv ❤

    Well done on getting a job! Agree that a care job ontop of caring at home would be way too much. Supermarket jobs tend to be pretty stress free in my experience (especially checkouts) so I hope it'll be ok for you 😊
    Did you get the results of your scans in the end? I hope you get the results that you're hoping for x

    • @booksandbargains
      @booksandbargains  ปีที่แล้ว

      So true! So far I have done 2 full shifts and I am enjoying getting to talk to lots of different people! Not had the results of my scans yet, still waiting for an appointment for one more
