Poundland. I didn’t realise it was open!
Watching the live band on the bench in Highbury Fields. Really fun and reminded me what London is actually like.
Shopping when it’s quiet in the morning. I was able to stare at the cereals for aaaaages with no one walking past or making me feel like I need to hurry.
Sewing all day, mostly by memory. More jeans and another jumper.
Another HelloFresh meal. I love lemony minty things. I need to use those flavours more.
I got the puffer jacket for even cheaper.
A meeting with Mark and Tom. Both of whom I fancy.
My brother, randomly sending a naked photo of himself with a washboard covering his penis. I have no idea why but I laughed a LOT.
Getting lots of shit done today. Lots of shopping for little bits. Itch relief cream, tissue paper, envelopes, elastic, clay. It feels very successful.
Having lunch in a cafe again. And eating a shit ton of veg followed by a great hot chocolate.
The ridiculous Christmas setup I found at one house today. There was even a big manger scene on the side of the house, along with a snowscape in the shed.
Seemed to spend the day buying things – elastic, photo frames, desk chairs and then lots of soft fluffy fabric for kids clothes.
… Which I then turned into a dinosaur jumper for Fred.
Getting an answer right on University Challenge. It was about female comedians. Of course I knew.
Eating my gross looking but delicious, if crumbly, vegan cakes, covered with peanut butter and butter icing that is mainly butter.

& Juliet. I CAN’T STOP SMILING.

Buying lots of craft stuff and knowing that it’s not my money.

Lovely shower
Finally made it to a Uniqlo
More new KitKat flavours
Having a seat between us on the flight. It’s so much nicer when you can lie down

Basically a whole day with Jonny and it was lovely:
Shopping together.
Changing his pennies into pounds at Metro Bank.
A pub night, trying a new pub and then going to an actual nice pub.
I get to look after Penny, the tiny dog that is more eyes than face, next weekend!
Board games. Winning at board games.
Sitting in the sun in the park again.
Also, shopping quietly and on my way, being nice to myself was lovely too. And I deserve four nice things today.
All the white butterflies that are around right now. They’ve been fluttering past me for weeks and I keep forgetting that they are one of the things that make me smile. But they always do.
Feeling relaxed and horny in the park, sunbathing, with a nipple poking out my bikini to see what’s happening.
A little wander around the SGR shops and getting this new plant. Please don’t let me kill this one.
A bigger Tesco. With so much choice! And so much less busy than Lidl. Dreamy.

Bright blue skies today.
Carrie Bradshaw’s house (underwhelming), the Friends apartment (also underwhelming), Ground Zero, taking a ferry to Williamsburg, delicious Mexican food, new rings, a carrot cake doughnut (so delicious), the view from the roof and a really great coffee.
Discovered a local department store. The jeans still weren’t right but I ordered what I need. It felt good to explore a bit, even after being here for two years.
A couple of the pieces at the National Portrait Gallery. The moving portraits by Julian Opie were cool. Physically moving I mean, not emotionally.
Jo came round with my P45 and cuddles after work. Really nice to have a mini catch up for about 45 minutes.
Cracking on with a job application no problems. I can do it when I want to.
Boy chat with Lauren after she came back from her holiday.
New dresses. A classic shapeless denim one and a sparkly black one that makes me feel slinky. Thanks charity shop!
My amazing charity shop haul. I got some great clothes for hardly any money at all! New trousers for £2 and a lovely man’s woollen jumper for £2 too. Yes please.
An evening with my boo, Jonny. I haven’t seen him for ages. So we went to Petek. Obvs.
Jen gossip and a Britney-esque photo. What a plum.
Beautiful sunny London. It’s so perfect when it looks like this.
Meeting a woman who organises WOW and pitching two ideas to her. She loved both of them! I’m so proud of us for pitching so well. Fingers crossed we make it into the festival.
Buying a new bag. It was tan. I had to.
And a fourth, dinner at Jo’s with her brother and fiancé. It was really nice. Maybe a friend extension.
Three little things
