Countdown to Freedom

Thistlewhistle

Hello Tilly,

You must have thought I'd been abducted by aliens as I've not posted in ages, but I am still here lurking about like a shadow in the night, but not always able to think of anything to say, or simply too tired to type!!

June has been hectic in the extreme, but things are calming down now ahead of our holiday to Cyprus next Friday - I can't wait - 15 nights in our own private villa! Luxury!

Hope you're ok Tilly, it doesn't look like you've been posting as much as you usually do either. It must be all this hot weather!

Life in the Tilly household is ridiculous at the moment. Once we've got this weekend over, normal service will resume

Mr T asked me what shopping I needed this weekend - no idea :eek:

Morning, quick post before our PT session :eek:

Mr T has been paid so money shuffle complete.

HM pizza for dinner with coleslaw - project use up continues and I have a couple of chutneys still to finish which we'll use as the base.

41p TT moved to MOS.

Job for weekend - check the monthly savings into offset pots reflects correct amounts needed.

I'd better get up and start the day.

Best wishes Tilly x x

That did make me laugh - I said the same to Mr T when I was writing in and said where do they come from.

Whoops - no chutney left :eek: It must have been used up the last HM pizza night

Tom ketchup, sweet chilli sauce and chilli flakes made an acceptable alternative :rotfl:

Now I need to know what to do with garlic mayo - pitta breads, chicken, salad maybe?



The last two weeks have been mad. Work, studies, home, family etc and I'm mightily relieved it's Friday. Still waiting on news/decisions re future plans which is also wearing.

Money matters - PC, YouGov surveys completed. It would be great to hit the YG payout by the end of the year

Mr Ts expenses continue to be paid on time and are offsetting.

Review of all savings pots completed. I'm calling the bank tomorrow to change the amounts paid into a couple.

July is still on for mega spending clamp down and I'm beginning to panic about not having a menu plan. However,DD has offered to do some of the cooking during the week :A. She will have time to raid the freezer during the day and things can defrost.

Half way through the year already :eek::eek: 181 sleeps :eek::eek:

I'm off for an early night.
