It really was

Carrying on the food theme of the weekend, I've had another good food day today I made a roast chicken dinner with all the trimmings, followed by an HM apple crumble and custard. I love weekends

Another NSD for me today which means I've exceeded June's target, which is good :j :j all our savings at the moment will go as spending money for Canada/America, so every single penny extra is a bonus

Going to watch the hobbit now with a cuppa and have a relaxing evening with DH

Had a lovely tea tonight with chicken risotto, made with leftover roast chicken and hm chicken stock - it really was nice and very easy to do. Plus all made from leftovers from yesterday! I've also got a portion for lunch tomorrow, so definitely a bargain chicken there.

I can't believe it's the end of June already! Tomorrow, I can say "I'm going on holiday this month" which I'm excited about I'm very much looking forward to the break and doing some traveling with DH - I'm so pleased he got the time off work and we get to do something lovely together.

I've written quite a long blog post wrapping up the month of June, if anyone wants to peak at that. Our finances this month have been great - due to not spending as much - and I'm hoping to repeat the performance in July. We shall see

Hi SF,

Just a quick post as I'm completely swamped with reports and other carp that we have to hand in next week (why ask for other stuff to be done during report writing season? I'd happily do it next week!). I agree with everything you said above - including OH's time off as we had issues (:mad:) in this area. When are you off? :j:j:j

ljaneyr - I hear you on being busy thing! It's mad at work at the moment. We go on the 28th - so 27 days to go (won't do that for the next 27 days though, promise... )

It's July :j :j :j we go on holiday this month :j :j

I'm so excited, I bet it's going to go reeeeally slowly work is as mental as ever though, so I'm sure I'll be busy right until the end.

Oh, NSD 1 for me too enjoying a nice relaxing evening with DH - need an early night as I'm shattered. I'm not sleeping well again at the moment - not sure why - but it means I'm getting more tired during the day.

Right, I need a cuppa

Oh, and I've put all my July aims up on my blog here's to a good month! :beer:

We go on the 26th! So only 23 sleeps :j:j:j I'm just avoiding report writing and having a cuppa. I've hardly had time to come on here over the last week but I'm looking forward to having a good catch up

13 hour day today - shattered doesn't cover it.

So glad it's Friday tomorrow...

I'm so so so glad it's the weekend. This week has been mentally busy and has also gone incredibly slowly, so phew, made it to the end!

We've been out for an Indian tonight with a voucher paid for by a friend, which was lovely it was so nice not to have to cook tea. However, I'm really full now and I'm tired, but too full to sleep but, worth it

I've written a blog post about living the simple life, if anyone wants to take a look. This week I've really appreciated the little things, like DH making tea and tidying the house, having some cuddles on the sofa with the cats after a long day, and supping some squash sat in the garden in the sunshine. It doesn't take much

Happy weekend everyone
