    Morning nottoobad! Thanks for starting!

    I've been missing for a few days and haven't had a chance to catch up with the threads! Hope you've all had a good weekend!

    I was ill on Friday so took the day off work.. :( feel so much better now- think I needed that time off!!

    Today's list:
    - check bank
    - check onepoll
    - lunch from home
    - LSD, haven't brought enough for lunch so may pop to T to get something cheap!
    - start planning Aprils budget (should get my bonus letter today so I'll know exactly how much I'm getting :) )

    Morning Perni! You just snuck in there!! :)

    Hello! I was quick instead of dawdling today :D Now if only I could do that every morning...

    Perni thanks for your thoughts on the shoes, duly noted. The problem is over the last 2 weeks I have spent £200 more than I should have done from my personal funds and also we have been dipping freely into the hoint account. So anything I can claw back I really should! The shoes I bought are lovely but really are work shoes and really I am after a pair of black flats that I can wear either to work or casually that don't look cheap! So definitely taking them back on my way to work... (sorry for the life story of the search for shoes there!)

    Oops, £200 is quite a bit of an overspend! (Unless you suddenly win the euro millions!) Ah I'm tight when it comes to work clothes anyway...not tight enough to wear the horrible, ill-fitting uniform they would give me, but tight enough to just buy cheap & plain things from H&M etc. Well done for having the MSE sense to take them back :) Save the money for something else.

    Hope u feel ok son Natlie and why can't you have your Mexican dinner again soon perni?

    I will be embarking on a FODMAP diet soon...in the hope of easing my IBS symptoms. I have had some days where it has been so bad that it's really affecting me & it's made me paranoid that I will have "a bad day" on my wedding day & won't be able to simply excuse myself as I picked a stupid big dress that will require someone to hold it! Ok for a number 1, but if my stomach is playing up I don't know what I'd do :o So fingers crossed the dietician knows what she's talking about & avoiding (a lot) of foods will help...no longer do I want to go out in public & the first thing I do is find out where the toilet is just incase & then fret over what my stomach is doing! :o:o:o
