This weekend I have talked to OH about my frugal plans for now until the end of the year... That was tough but he supports me.
I applied for funding for my latest BSL course (and have heard that my grandparents and dad want to help me with this too.)
I made my now semi-famous macaroni cheese for OH. It wasn't as good as when mum taught me how to make it on tuesday... but at least I'm practicing!
I arranged my next cooking lesson with mum on tuesday - chilli
I used my gym membership for my yoga class and a gym session
I drove on a night out on Saturday, parked in a free space and only paid for 1 lemonade for myself and two (on offer) beers for OH.
I've reviewed my money again and without cutting sky or the gym (my main sources of entertainment) I can't save anymore money. I'm a wee bit disappointed. It's time to start selling things I think.

Evening everyone - late check in again!
Ended up working half an hour overtime as work colleague off sick! Other than that have done the usual. Will try the bread in the week and see if I can blag some fresh yeast!
Also very exciting news but need everyone to keep fingers crossed for me!:j:j
I had a call from theatre about writing course. I have to send some work in and then will meet with course leader! There is a short list of 80 people and only about 15 places and I really want to get onto it! I will know by Christmas and in the meantime have to hope they like my work and pick me!!:eek:
