Fiona's Quiet Life

But then it is my time to waste.….…even though the way i was feel­ing yes­ter­day , i was not sure there was a lot of it left to waste.

yes­ter­day i was sav­ing and spend­ing money at the same time and frit­ter­ing away hours look­ing at the quidco website.

Older daugh­ter mar­isa had been read­ing my blog to see just what her mother was get­ting up to.…..as if it would all be here.….…..

she emails…” youv’e been to screw­fix, you musn’t go to screw­fix unless it is through the quidco site you can save 6% “ .….……well that was me for the rest of the day. i found screw­fix and they had exactly what i wanted.…..a towel holder like they have in hotels so that there is always a towel or two in the bath­room for any guest who has for­got­ten to get one before becom­ing wet and naked.….….this hasnt happened yet but it could. it hap­pens to me when i have put my tow­els in the wash and for­got­ten to replace them, i got a lovely holder in john lewis and put it up last week. 

any­way then i browsed the hun­dreds of other mer­chants on the site and ordered all sorts of chocol­ate from Hotelchocolat.….……will let you know how it tastes.….…..the Screw­fix order arrived this morn­ing, amaz­ingly speedy.

i was feel­ing ill yes­ter­day though so i didn’t feel bad about sit­ting doing nothing.

that was yesterday

today Abi­gail emails about the swoopo auc­tion site.….well that was me , all day watch­ing people bid for things. i won a Wii fit.….….…..as it costs 40p per bid and the bids go up 8p or some­times 1p a time it is easy to see how the site makes its money. though i got the Wii fit for £32 a great price, it cost me £25 to bid.….….…i have learned from that and now only bid at the very last minute when i think a thing has reached what the site wants for it.….….……i saved a small amount of money, i wanted one any­way and i got an after­noon enter­tain­ment for a few pounds which dis­trac­ted me from feel­ing ill.

i should have gone to my doc­tor sooner, i am a per­son that waits for a thing to get bet­ter and can put up with a lot, so now hav­ing seen my gp i feel worse some­how and he , being a calm per­son has said , we will redo the tests in 4 weeks in case it gets better.….…..i know it wont as it has been going on for months. next time i feel ill i shall make a fuss sooner.

then while put­ting the towel holder up the bat­tery ran out on the elec­tric screw­driver but it is up now.
