    Morning all :hello:

    I feel a challenge coming on...

    1. List 3 items on Ebay or put 3 items in the charity box/bin
    Sorted out my old books to take to the charity shop
    2. Make all today's meals from what you have in already
    My Daughter is cooking us mince and dumplings from the fridge
    3. Pay an extra £1.29 onto a debt payment/into the savings pot
    Put £40 aside for xmas + extra £60 for Daughters 18th party next spring.
    4. Do 15mins of something that leaves you out of breath
    Just did my second lot of physio. Recovering from MPFL ligament reconstruction surgery on knee. Didn't make me out of breath but hurt lots.
    5. Pay something forward
    Went into store that has part time positions and rushed home to tell Daughter who has been looking for months. Will take her CV in tommorow.
    6. Do one thing you've been putting off
    Oh ok then, I'll go and clean the bathrooms.
    7. Start your September food plan
    Hmmmm not done a monthly plan before? Usualy do a weekly one.
    8. Do one thing JUST FOR YOU
    Sit down with a cuppa and do my nails.
