22.1.07 What small DFW/MSE thing have you done or will you do today?

Hello!

Today I have put washing on the radiators to dry instead of using the tumble dryer. Can't promise to do this all the time because I don't like looking at my washing draped everywhere, but I will make more of an effort to do the odd load this way.

I have also made my menu plan for the week, thereby hopefully removing the need to buy extra food just because I hadn't given it much thought.

I hope you all have or have had a good day x

    Need to go and pay my collection of £2 into the bank
    Still need to try and get that index book/ address book for organisation purposes
    Meal plan for the week

    Ever wonder about those people who spend £2 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backward.
  • That reminds me - I have £2 in coppers to deposit at the post office. My friends think I've joined some bizarre money-saving cult ;) and maybe they're right...

    I need to get some bread and milk, but otherwise I'll try and keep it to a NSD
