    Ok, so there is nothing much financial to report today :(
    Last night I did read an inspiring thread by MoneyWaster.
    So I have now ordered a book to read and have counted up my change. I have about £40 saved at home and just over £200 in savings-not including my ISA and a couple of other accounts. In total my savings are about £1300 now. :D
    Starting when my next wage goes in my bank I'm going to try and save between 10 and 15% of it-in either savings or to go towards some jobs that still need doing in the house. I'm going to try and save between 10 and 15% every month. Fingers crossed.
    Made some 1 ingredient banana ice cream yesterday-it was surprisingly delicious and really creamy. :)
    Took some out of date meds to chemist this morning for disposal-first aid cupboard looking better having had a clear out. :)
    Right, off to sort clean washing out and make a cuppa.

    No Tilly Tidies today.
    My hoard of dishwasher tablets arrived yesterday. :D
    Bit of a scare last night-may need a small OP further down the line, fingers crossed it won't come to that. :(

    Well judging by how I'm feeling today and the conversation I've just had with a friend who has been through similar, I think I probably will need the op at some point. :(

    No financial news.
    May have discovered why I am getting really bad headaches though. :(:)
    It has only taken me nearly 3 years. :eek:

    Well, I've managed to transfer some money back across to savings and ISA as I borrowed some earlier this week.
    Payday tomorrow so I need to go through my finances again and see what's what. :)

    Need to get back on track next week.
    I have got about 18 eggs that are due to expire in about 3 days so any suggestions on how I can use them up would be greatly appreciated please. We did have a few more but yesterday we had gammon egg and chips and today DH has had poached eggs on toast and I have had scrambled eggs. Getting sick of them already! Lol x

    Cath, we regularly eat eggs here up till a couple of weeks past the sell by ... Theyre fine, so dont panic, dates are only an indication on most things, if they look fine and smell fine ... Get the OH to eat them :D
