Savings balance: £175.00
Bank balance: £196.07 to cover £155.73, £10.95 and £6.07
Purse balance: £30.44
24 days til payday.
Bank balance nearly caught up with actual balance. Just a couple of transactions to clear.
OH owes me £17 for a purchase- he's poor this month so this can wait. He is still waiting to see if he's been approved for the same small card as me in order to establish his rating.
I am waiting for my card and pin to arrive. Need to think of a workable system- one card for fuel, one for groceries, one for online purchases etc. I am waiting to hear from 2 other small cards so will decide my system when I know how many I have- OH could use his for his smokes, daily spends, lunches (I know) and any travel costs. If I only get one card, I'll do it all on that and clear in full each month.
Today:
1 load of laundry done and currently drying TAKEN IN AND PUT AWAY
Washing up to be done by OH, me assisting with drying up and motivation! DONE
Bathroom wipe down DONE
Make sofa DONE
Hoover housetomorrow
Change bed tomorrow
Tackle floordrobe DONE

Forgotten have to go to lunch with OH at family's. My list will have to wait until I return. Have washed work clothes and hung them on hangers- may be able to avoid ironing. Shopping may be able to wait until tomorrow too- will see. The only thing we urgently need is milk.
Anyway:

A later start to the day than normal for me. Managed to get OH out of bed too so the bed has been stripped, sheets currently washing then will be hung out on line to dry whilst we're at work. Efficient! Was meant to do yesterday but my list fell by the wayside and we were out for ages.
Have lots of little jobs to do when I'm back from work. Most important is pick up the groceries on the way home. We are out of milk and cheese, running low on sugar and in need of some fresh bits.
Bank balance: £172.97 (splashed out on a curry last night, enough for tonight too
Savings balance: £175.00
Purse balance: £30.44
Tonight
Make bed
Put sheets away if dry
Hoover house
Put away dry laundry
1 load of laundry- dressing gowns and leftover bits
Put last few bits of stuff away in bedroom
Unpack shoes
Tighten bed with alan key
Put new lightbulb in office
After dinner clear kitchen- all washing up and putting away done
Make lunch for tomorrow
I'm sure there are more bits to add, will see how much energy I have. Expecting some packages today plus paperwork for OH's credit card if he's been accepted plus my actual card to come through. Still waiting for last 3 direct debits to leave my account.- DFD 4th July 2015

Just a quick post as I'm knackered and off to bed.
Still got £175 in savings and £1.74 in bank. Purse balance is just a couple of quid- need to check.
Made soup for dinner, had a roll with butter too. Have defrosted some meat for a stirfry tomorrow. Need to get veg- out of onions, beansprouts, peppers, celery etc as well as bits for work and some chickpeas.
Have eaten too much bread today. Must resist!
Proper post tomorrow- DFD 4th July 2015
