    How is it only Wednesday? :wall::wall:

    Tonight I'm going round to see someone about possible tutoring, so that would be good if it seems okay :) it wouldn't be a lot, but it's all pennies for the pot. The only downside is that it's quite a long drive for me to go, so I think I'm going to have to ask for some donation to travel costs :o which I don't like to do.... any thoughts on that?

    It'll hopefully be another NSD in the SF household - I'm making a spaghetti dish tonight with stuff we have in so that'll be yummy :D no garlic bread though - even if DH does think otherwise! :D

    So, DH text me before and he's working til 10PM :( so I didn't make the spaghetti for tea, I just had waffles from the freezer with some baked beans :o not particularly exciting, nor healthy, but I hate just cooking for me. So, ho hum.

    It's been a NSD in the SF household though, which is always good :D I also transferred a tiny 77p to savings, every little helps, right? ;)

    I've been to see the student about tutoring, and it's going ahead :j I just need to work out what I'm going to ask for travel - they are happy to pay them so I just need to work out a fair deal. But, all extra pennies in the pot :D
