    :hello:Today has been a good day (well actually a REALLY GOOD DAY):):) have managed to all my jobs today plus some more, I went shopping with my £70.00 budget and actually spent £64.00 and got everything I needed:T.
    Managed to bake my fruit cake and some fairy cakes for the terrible teenagers, (not that they’ll be around tomorrow) also did another batch of pasta sauce for the freezer:T, topped up the compost on my pots (compost given to me from a friend for a swap on sand and cement that I had left from a small repair job I did:)) That’s what I call money saving. And with the brilliant weather we had I even put the washing on the line to dry:) rather that use the tumble. Also managed to pay the bills that we’re due as well as transferring monies to DD act for DD that are due. So that’s a Total of £97.00 of outstanding debt balance plus £85 transferred for DD’s. Yep I think I’ve done pretty well.:T
