Hi everyone!

Today I will/have:

• Spent last 30min writing budget for when I go back to Uni in September
• Worked out need to save an additional £300 for this (despite having saved a fair bit already and having regular monthly money going into savings account from me and OH)...as well as saving for wedding, paying off debts etc...feel slightly sick
• Need to stop thinking about this now!
• Checked online banking
• Had breakfast at home
• Off to work in a moment
• Office all day
• Take packed lunch
• Need to pick up bread and milk - only take £2 to shop so I stick to this
• Storecupboard tea - Jacket potato, cheese and beans
• Stick to slimming world all day
• Heating off until this evening
• Going to a cake makers with mum and OH tonight. This has the potential to be DFW as we will get ideas for wedding cake then think about how we can do our own, much much cheaper!
• Free texts to catch up with people
• Watch Waterloo Road tonight then get an early night

Love to all

- Checked online banking and paid an extra £25 off my C/C as I'm working this weekend which is cash in hand.
- Left my purse at home so will definitely be an NSD
- Charge phone at work
- Return rated those that had rated my Dooyoo reviews

Morning all!
Earlier than usual for me as there's a lull in work!

Today I have/will....

• Have brekkie at home
• Have free lunch with clients
• Take dog to vets for next injection (all paid for upfront so at least that's not costing me anymore)
• Walk dog for free exercise
• Charge ipod and phone at work
• Have tea from freezer
• Have a NSD
• Find car docs to try to find out when/if I can get out of the lease deal without a penalty
• Put expenses in - did the paperwork yesterday but need to get it signed
• Pay amex bill
• Look forward to pay day tomorrow!
• Try to work out budget for next pay month - nothing big planned so hopefully it may be a low spend month?
• Phone local schools about getting a 1 or 2 day experience ready to apply for teacher training course - exciting and scary!!

That's it for today - better do some work!

After the excesses of yesterday I am on a NSD.

Checked the bank

Finished off my revised budget as far as I can, cannot put in council tax, rent and CS pensions as yet do not know what they will be until April when everything goes belly up because we get the CS pension increases from April, so HB CTB and rent all have to be re-calculated........takes them 8 weeks to do this so we are always playing icatch up and our rent shows in arrears, bloomin' idiots.

OH off for his scan later, so waiting for him to get up and have his shower, bacon sarnies for brekkie will make a flask and take a couple of cereal bars with us...appointment is for 1pm. We have to e ready from 11am for the transport.

Foggy and it los as though we have had a frost......

Stop of at local pet shop to find out if its cheaper for cats food as vet put him on a new diet.

Tell Mrs HP its 75% of boots today (apparently) as shes planning on going there anyway , so she uses her vouchers not MS but shes going anyway so make the most of any savings.

Get Mrs HP to TAKE BACK a saute pan she brought last night as 'we have'nt got one' & ' it was cheap, it was half price,only 9.99'
