Loving this no work week or so

brizzledfw

Today will

1. Change beds
2. Do couple of loads of laundry
3. Enjoy my garden
4. Do an exercise class
5. Use up chicken LO in a risotto with maybe some asparagus..yum
6. Get my head round frugality again..I have taken my foot off the tigers neck for 3 weeks and it's showing...can trace it back to buying those jeans on 31.03, and maybe even the flights the week before, need to get back on the waggon.
7. Also need to do some more work. Question of when so it doesn't impact too much on other things. Couple of hours should do it.
8. Plan the egg hunt for tomorrow afternoon...bunny coming late to our house...seems to know it's not a full complement of kids until, tomorrow so very helpfully doing an extra shift tomorrow in Brizzle

Have a great day folks.

Have a good break - looks like you plan to be busy!

Well that was yesterday. Plus it was a NSD! Yippee:T. Will update signature.

Really need to get my head round uber frugality though. Need to channel some of that Mrs Frugalwoods serenity

Today also need to work and then do a small capsule pack. We have a short trip to London planned with the kids. Have just booked my cut price train tickets and had already sorted a reasonable hotel. Looking forward to it very much.

Hope work didn't take up too much time today. Agree with you on frugality, when you spend on something when you are used to tight purse strings it's easy for it all to head south.

Managed to spend less than £10 over the 4 days which I'm happy about :T just need it to continue. Hope you've enjoyed the long weekend

You've reminded me I need to look at London hotels for later in the year. Thanks

brizzledfw

That is so so right PF. Once my foot is off the neck it all heads south.


So..great time in London and although it was spendy we also used MOV and walked or took tube everywhere. The museums were lovely and free of course and the glorious weather made everything seem even more joyful. Girls were really appreciative of the trip which was doubly nice.

Have done some work this week and need to do more, also need to to do the VAT return and more invoices.

Meal planned this weeek which has helped. No sales, which is a pity, can't think of anything else to sell tbh. On money front kinda standing still until more funds arrive in a fortnight and then I can pay off another CC. Whoop. Can't wait.

Right..friends visiting for the weekend so bed changing needs to start!!

Glad you had a good trip to London. Think we'll head up there soon. Might just go to Borough Market for a total pig out!
