Spends today have been on lunch with a friend (Yum!) and on supermarket nonsense, including enough cat litter to sink a battleship. Woo for 3for2! If I didn't have such a tiny flat I would have bought a lot more. I shall be playing Tetris with the hall cupboard tomorrow to fit that in with the looroll I bought in Costco (enough to build a small fort) and the 10kg of cat biscuits I can't fit in the kitchen

The £79 has now been spent/allocated
£16.26 on crafts (Woo!!) This was all on rubber stamps from brands I like but consider expensive. All were half price
£30 overpaid into the mortgage.
£32.76 into my ISA to be used for treats/something dull and essential at a later date.
Today my plan is to catch up on housework this morning then reward myself with a trip to town to meet Palema this afternoon. I'm then spending most of the evening making cards and have a friend coming round to raid my stash to make a Valentine's card for her OH :rotfl:
