    85p on salad to supplement (pretty poor) homemade lunch. No intended spending for rest of day. Last night after logging off had a spree in the haberdashery and bought myself scarf to wear at work (warm and decorative). Feeling very naughty AND I'm not going to make my grocery challenge target for this month. Must do better.

    Nothing.

    Had HM lasagne for lunch, and will be at gym/home tonight so shouldnt spend anything else.

    Just seen my friends in Oz on the webcam of the pub they're at, and I want to be there so much!! I am having a bad day as it is, and that's just made it worse. But at least I know that I am one step closer to going than when I was in debt!!

    I am so miserable, just want to cry & go home.
