Milanns mutterings on this last milestone.

Yeah Taxi - wouldn't want to repeat it - but it made me put a lot of things into perspective and made me realise what good people I had around me. It gave me a completely new mindsett about a lot of things - so I try and put it behind me ... but ... I never want to forget some of the lessons I learned IYKWIM.

If I go to the butty shop near work - I spend approx £2.50 Sooo - every time I take dinner from home - I am going to put £1, just a fraction of that in George - my pot money box. (have already accounted for most of it in new dd's going into savings account) - I'll open George each terms holidays and use it as an incentive to keep me going.

£1 a day in the lunch pot is a good compromise - it is something that often do as an incentive to take lunch in from home.

Have a good day.

That sounds like a great idea Milann and will soon mount up.

Been back in work just 2 days and feels like I've never been away. Still only half the amount of children in, mainly just ones from last term as we introduce the new ones in slowly - so nice gentle start up to now.

Have taken luch in 2 days so far and 4/5 september nsds :D so I'm well chuffed so far this month - getting there slowly but surely.

This week I have

Taken lunch to work every day and put £1 of savings away each day.:D

Had 4 nsds

Going to Blackpool in the sunshine for a walk along the lights and fish and chips, will do it MSE style and not fritter too much cash about. :T

Been a tiring week at work but good to be back and catch up with everyone.

Washing in machine but that's about as far as the housework regime has gone - I 'will' keep on top of it though :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

Exercise regime never got started - had intended to go 3 times after work so thats for next week - MUST get using the gym membership I renewed :eek::eek::eek: (and haven't been near since renewing in July).....sneaks off quietly ashamed!!!

Enjoy your fish and chips!

Blackpool was warm and sunny although very busy - we steered clear of the centre of Blackpool and stayed at one end away from crowds. Chips were good - don't quite know why but they taste better there than anywhere else!! Had a walk along the tableaux lights then headed home - so a lovely day was had and MSE too

Today making pizza in bm. Loads of ripe tomatoes to use so making a roast veg topping - should prob have enough topping for pasta tomoz too.

Off to do a bit of housework.

Everything sounds great there and going to plan.
Glad you enjoyed the lights and fish and chips in Blackpool.
Pizz and pasta sauce sounds a lovely way to use the toms jup.

Didn't get any housework done at weekend - had a better offer went to see my 4 day old great niece instead and had lots of cuddles :j - there's always next weekend as I only do essentials during the week.

Went for a swim after work yesterday and planning on going tomorrow too - so using my gym membership.

Had a good couple of days at work - saw my old nurse today and she is transferring me to a new consultant with a chance of trying a new treatment - this should make life much easier for me in the long run if it all works to plan - hope theres not a two year waiting list or anything daft like that :rolleyes: - I WANT IT NOW!!

Still been taking lunch to work and food spending has been ok. Not had chance to do any dooyoo though.

SO all in all a good few days:T

Everything sounds great.
Hope you don't have to wait long for the new treatment.
