Evening all

I have been bad at keeping updated on here as have a few things going on in my life at the moment.

So far for the week I have spent £40.90 on food at work and a night out tonight so £9.10 to do me through tomorrow which should be easy.

I am away this weekend so will only be updating and starting the new thread on Sunday night unless I get to it before, just incase you are wondering why I am so late in starting it up:p

I have had a bit of good news this week, that I am getting a bonus from work which is larger than expected and depending on how much the taxman takes could clear any outstanding debt I have (other than mortgage :j:j:j:j)

Congratulations Pointy.

Quick update, we had a lovely few days with my parents, returned home late last night.

So far this week, I've not spent an unbudgeted (is this really a word?) penny :j

Today we are staying at home spending time playing with the children and some much needed housework. I've no idea what we are doing tomorrow so this may include a unplanned spend, I'll update on Sunday.

Wow thats great news Pointy...bet you are very excited at that news.

Ive somehow spent the last £3 on milk then change into a charity thing at my childrens school so Im down to Nil.

I have nothing until monday as I only have £5 in bank account until mondays payday.I have a cheque clearing but it wont clear till next week so a no spend weekend is forced on me but I have loads of food in the cupboard and lots of no spend activities planned.

Was hoping to rejoin WW this weekend as Ive fallen off the diet wagon big time so If I find my 'come back and join us for free voucher' I will be rejoining them

Have a good weekend everyone

May have to up my budget next week, but will mull over it and updat nearer Sunday.
Have a great weekend all

Am off to consider my budget now for next week. It's going to be expensive - Avon order, pedicure and I need a couple of new pairs of shoes for work - wish me luck ...
