Very achey leg today - so much so I'm starting to limp a little and I'm hoping it eases off a bit tomorrow and its just the physio unpacking all the compact muscle thats causing this
Time to update the budgets as nearly at the end of March

Hello,
sorry to hear about your leg problems, just give yourself plenty of time to heal please. I know you're an activity whirlwind usually.
Good news on the savings pots, I had to sneak a peek in mine & surprisingly it actually has helped me to want to keep going with it ( after a wobble).
You're getting far more adventurous with your clothes too which is really inspiring me :T0 -
Thanks Lula - true, trying to wear some of the clothes I own at the moment for a change instead of the same old ones over and over.

Morning
am curious as to 'make up flavoured coffee' ?0 -
Afternoon missus
'flavoured coffee' is a mixture of cocoa powder, instant coffee and whitener to make up coffee mocha for a friend who liked it. I made up some jars for Christmas to put in food hampers
Just off to make it up now and get going on the listfinal unsecured debt to repay currently £8333Proud to be Dealing With my DebtDFW Nerd 1154 Long Haul 1550 -

Ok didn't do that much today but it was good to have a quiet day especially as my leg aches if I do my normal amount of activities so took it easy today
Found a cake and dessert to bake for mother's day lunch next weekend and shopping list written for next weekend
Popped to the shop for a few bits and picked up some big picture frames for mum's present and my new pictures on my wall. All looking good in the frames now and mum's is wrapped up ready to go
Planted some more seeds - flowers today - sweet pea, nasturstians, lobelia and petunias. Salad leaves coming along nicely now
Just need to sort a card out for mum now for next weekend then all ready
Plan to clean a room a night as per flylady to free up next weekend as it was good this weekend not to spend it cleaning as usual
Sooooooooo then what else?
not much really apart from making a card and oh yes how could I forget? Better crack on with the reading for my assignment and exam, nearly forgot for a moment I had something to do!final unsecured debt to repay currently £8333Proud to be Dealing With my DebtDFW Nerd 1154 Long Haul 1550 -
Tonight will read one chapter from the 7 day loan book - writing it here to make sure I do itfinal unsecured debt to repay currently £8333Proud to be Dealing With my DebtDFW Nerd 1154 Long Haul 1550

Picked up 5 grow bags today, now read back over the thread and realised it made sense to buy another 16 + 4 = 20 (total 25) which might be enough for now and would come in at £33 ish
Also picked up 3 massive bags of sprouting seed potatoes for £1.74 x 2 - 48p and one more for £1.74 to split between me and a friend total £4.74 instead of full price of £9.48 as they are all half price and if you buy 2 it takes off 48p. Previous offer was buy 2 bags for £6 and this takes it down to 2 for £3 instead
Really must stay out of there and stop buying the poorly plants so much this year - I know I can't especially the lettuce that they sell off at 20p a pack and can by nursed back to health and then eaten!final unsecured debt to repay currently £8333Proud to be Dealing With my DebtDFW Nerd 1154 Long Haul 1550 -
Hope the leg is feeling better. You've insired me fitness wise & I'm off for a local gym induction later this week... watch this space!I myself am made entirely of flaws, stitched together with good intentions...0

Good luck with the gym dizzy - I hope it goes well for you
I've just had my 2nd session of physio which was super painful - ouch! Also have some orthotic insoles too to try out in my shoes to support my foot when running and walking.final unsecured debt to repay currently £8333Proud to be Dealing With my DebtDFW Nerd 1154 Long Haul 1550
