    Yesterday we did the grocery shopping, all budgeted for. Also visited the library and I had £1.50 in library fines to pay :(, I'm really trying to be more organised so I don't incurr these as they should be easy to avoid.

    Hi everyone, NSD Sunday and Monday but spent £1 on a paper at work because I was so bored of not having anything to read on my breaks. Other than that nothing else!
