Went back to sleep and woke up overheating -_-

I’m trying to wean myself onto books so I don’t rely so much on my phone but it’s hard. It seems I still read fast too. Going to have to sort something out about getting to the library. Doing things digitally is just looking too much for me right now. I forgot my library card password or pin, I cbf working out Libby and don’t want to buy a kindle.

Coles is currently 40% off on some shampoos and CW is 50% off on a lot of hair stuff.

I’m a bit suspicious though because the last time I bought something heavily discounted it turned out that sunscreen brand was being pulled for not living up to SPF claims.
