    Went to Kai's mum's today, bus fare and money to collect a parcel was put by, so that saved me an NSD - halfway through my target for the month.
    Have cleaned the bathroom and kitchen, Kai can do the front room and bedroom and hallway, its only fair.
    Started reading again, found The Dark Tower no 6 in the library, so that's waiting to be started on, after Hamlet and Jude the Obscure...

    Aaaah.

    Bit cheeky as me and Kai had an early Valentine's Day. He loved his hoodie, books and bookmark I found him, and he spoiled me!
    Got a me a cat teapot with matching mug and saucer, tea strainer and loose tea to use with it, and jam for my porridge or my rice cakes, and a waving money cat :D Absolutely loved all of this, and the tea os really nice, so I think I'm moving to loose lea tea, it's so tasty :D

    Finished Hamlet, so just need to watch it and read Jude the Obscure (which is about halfway through) and The Dark Tower 6.
    NSDs both days this weekend, food shopping was 27.68 so well in budget (get in!) and Kai's mum gave us some money when we saw her yesterday so that ws used for lunch. Also got some spice jars to put my tea in, and I'm going to have an online jolly looking for teas - either today or tomorrow.....probably tomorrow.
    Also trying to give up the smoking again, have hada few puffs of a ciggy and it makes me feel sick, but I have lollies and gum so I should be dandy to do it :D

    ETA: also lost 2lb :D

    Now watched 2 hours of Hamlet, just one more to do....feels tedious but I am enjoying it but can't concentrate.

    CCs are through for the month....debt has dropped by 51.87 over the minimum payments, so that is moving along nicely.
