Nothing spent but half the garden dug and planted with veggies, I may need to spend a couple of quid on painkillers for my back tomorrow though

Oh and to make it even better I didn't even have to find anything for tea as XDH and his fiancee turned up with the complete makings for a barbeue including the charcoal
Organised people are just too lazy to look for things
F U Fund currently at £2500 -
I was most virtuous today and went to work from 7.30-1.30, then I spent £17.30 in Tesco on groceries, (I picked up and then put down a bottle of wine to buy, good eh?) Then I came home and made a sausage casserole and plum crumble for dinner.
Quite a good day today really as I was possibly going to a May Fair type thing to have a mooch and meet friends but I didn't want to spend any more money so I resisted.A minute at the till, a lifetime on the bill.
Nothing tastes as good as being slim feels.

Bought some stardrops too - 59p in asda, I think.
