    I checked my bank account today.
    I used my club card to get points from buying a drink and some cleaning stuff for the new place.

    Tonight I'm getting my hair dyed by my mum she brought a hair dye for me ages ago tonight is my chance to really do it as tomorrow we are out, seeing guardians of the galaxy 2 as my last farewell - I've spent the week still at my parents house so I haven't actually stayed in the new house since last Saturday. Though after my first aid course this Saturday I'm there always.

    I've checked my bank app today and will be staying home most likely.

    We already encountered a massive leak on Thursday and the plumber is coming around today to take a look. The landlords were super good and nice about it. I want to unpack my clothes and sort them out as I simply have too much. I did try sorting them out before I moved out but had second thoughts about getting rid of some. And I'm staying home because I've had a really slammed week at work and wanna chill. :)

    I've also purchased a budget book from wilko's to help me be more accountable,
    I need to use sticky notes to keep track of savings as there isn't a section for that but I don't mind
    as it has the main things i need in there. I'll also be keeping a list of my tasks for may in the envelope at the back of the book so I can pull it out easily and mark it off to then staple in the May section at the end of the month.

    What are your plans for bank holiday?
