My list for today: -

• [STRIKE]check on-line banking - get paid tomorrow so hopefully I've not forgotten anything - all my big bills come off today[/STRIKE]
• check surveys nope, and feeling too tired now
• [STRIKE]do meal planner spreadsheet including shopping list for next 4 weeks[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]set up spreadsheet for non d/d spend for this pay[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]go for a swim tonight after work so not an NSD for me[/STRIKE]
• seriously think about Christmas pressies as I'm starting to buy off this coming pay... my aim is to get it all finished in 2 pays!! Last year I was still shopping for my DS on Christmas eve so this will be a BIG improvement if I can do it didn't really get a chance to do this
• [STRIKE]breakfast and lunch to work[/STRIKE][STRIKE][/STRIKE] bought myself soup tho to go with roll I brought in... not good - I can feel myself slipping into bad habits again
• tea per meal planner nope, DH picked me up from swimming and we ended up getting a chippy tea... not good at all!!!!

Not been a very good day on the DFW front.... I really need to watch that I don't start slipping into bad habits again frittering away my money... have to stay focussed!!!! It's sometimes too hard

Anyway, enough of my grumbles... enjoy your evening everyone whatever you're up to x

Hi ALL.
A VERY long day at work today... am not well ( havne;t been all weekend) so didn't feel like eating - had an apple and two bananas all day at work - and a hot dog for tea - very cheap day!! If only i was ill all the tie i'd save a fortune!!

Spent some money ( tomato sauce for hot dog) and 2 onions... Need to get my behind to Lidl tomorrow as I find the fruit and veg much much nicer and cheaper from there than my usual supermarkets. Got a load of manky banans- my Oh was eating 3 a day up til thursday - so I bought 12 in one go and hes not had one since!! RAA - have emailed a friend for a banana ( easy) cake recipe so fingers crossed - if not will have to find on on the internet!!
Got my friend round for tea tomorrow so need to have a think about what to cook! - I have lots of quarn so maybe a quarn stir fry!!

Off to bed early tonight i think.. I have checked my onlne banking and all seems ok ... ish.
I have also cancelled a card that had zero balance but i was keeping incase they sent an offer - they havent for 3 months so i hve cancelled it and very please i am about it too!! I do afterall have another 2 cards with zero balance I ca ask for a deal when my 0 percent runs out in jan

See you all soon
