Aloha everyone!

I'm feeling happy today even though the weather is rubbish.

yesterday I...
- sorted out the travel allowances payment that was missing from my last wage, it'll be in this months.
-store cupboard meals
-NSD

Today I will
-check banking
-check mobile spend
-store cupboard lunch
-heading to boyfriends for dinner hopefully
-NSD (hopefully - unless I buy new house phone, mine died last night. Say a good one in Aldi reasonably priced. Verdict, should I get one or wait until the end of the month?)

Not sure what else.

Hope you're all shiny!

• Think of something to do with the toughest Weetabix cake you can imagine- I think an ingedient was omitted. There surely should be eggs of fat? Maybe a sort of bread pudding is called for.....
• :rotfl: :rotfl:

Will be interested to hear what u make!

new one to add to my list.

I just abused the company dymo machine to make little labels for my livingroom plugs so I can see at a glance exactly what can have its power cut at night. much easier than my usual trial and error technique.

its a little thing, yes, but got me so excited!

afternoon all!!

hope you are all having a good day!!

time has absolutely flown today what happened???

so far:
walked to town and back
bought £1 tin money box thing that you need a tinopener to get in - this is for x-mas savings :xmastree:
got some bits from s'burys basics range for cake baking
remembered to use my coupon for free long life milk :j
picked up soy and noodles from chinese supermarket - so much cheaper :T
brought cat toy for new kitten who is moving in with OH at the weekend - was £1 in £ shop and is exactly the same as the £2.49 one in mr A's!!
got a bottle of stardrops - seen posts recomending it so going to give it a go - 67p in wilko but 75p in mr S so more savings!!

raining here so not going to do washing as will want to tumble dry
OH is ill today so off to his house to help him do his packing (count down to weekend when he is moving in with me!!!) and do him a nice dinner to make him feel better

found out sister wants plants in a nice pot for her birthday - will have a sort out of shed later this weekend and see what i can rustle up with what i already have - this and a chocolate cake should keep her happy! :bdaycake:

so all in all a few spends today but really think i have been good as actually thought about things properly before buying!

going to start doing a spreadsheet of spends so i can keep an eye on how i am doing.

plan on getting OH put money he would normally spend on lunch from burger van into our x-mas fund when i make him a pack up :j
