    Gosh, is it just me or is anyone else struggling this month? There's seems to be something going on every single day that involves shelling out.

    Right, deep breath, sports day today so that will be interesting.

    Have a fabulous day everyone :j

    Good morning everyone, its going to be a spend day today need some ingredients, my son is doing his work experience in my friends coffee shop and as a thank you I am providing her with a cake and cupcakes next week. On the upside he is looking forward to working for the week :o but on the downside its going to cost me a fortune in bus fares :( . Have a good day everyone :)

    Good morning everyone, I'm checking in early with NSD#9 as I resisted nipping out for bread for school packed lunches, deciding my daughters could have what bread was there and I'd have cereal rather than toast for breakfast and Ryvita at lunchtime. I never used to use the crusts. :)

    I didn't include anything in a row in my target but today is 3 in a row so go me. Wahay.

    Tomorrow will be non uniform day for Comic Relief which will cost me a couple of quid and I'm going to do a top up shop.

    I picked a random target of 10 as a first go, so will be surpassing that.

    Thank you cw18, freebyfifty and all other lovely people for all the words of encouragement and continued updates. Have a lovely day, it's cold here but gorgeous sunshine xx

    YES!! Very much so!!! :o

    Hoping for one today, but out for dinner tonight. Not sure if I'm paying for myself or if sister is paying right enough. Maybe not spend the rest of today just in case...! ;)
