Hi Money savers,
We are just about recovered from the norovirus - so ziggy you had it too......truly vile, isn't it? Let's hope we've all seen the last of it for a good long time! we simply couldn't believe just how quickly it came on!
Today, I've:
*Done next week's meal plans.
*Done shopping list, as Mr f volunteered to get the shopping on the way home from work tomorrow.
*Updated grocery budget which had started to get into a muddle. Worked out a 'refund' for Mr f as he'd bought groceries from his 'personal spends' budget without thinking.
*Started chitting our seed potatoes on windowsill.....doing a blight-resistant variety so hopefully a good crop.
*Dug over one of my big borders & divided some existing plants up to fill gaps.
*Started the first nettle bucket of the year.....it makes really good free plant food, but smells sooooooooo rank......
*Did surveys
*Did a challenging job list for tomorrow now that I'm feeling better.
That's it for me.....Oh & finally (what a caring partner am I?, lol)... because I was a bit worried that Mr f might try & go in to work this morning before he was properly better, I hid the car keys!
Cheers,

update: had an internal struggle from 4pm until just after 6 re going for a workout but forced self and even though it was spending £7.50 I feel SO much better for having gone and more motivated to lose weight.
In fact, been v inspired by Welsh Woofer's diary so going to start my own but not tonight as too tired and want to get up at 6 to do a workout before work!
I'd like to lose about 2 stone if possible and feel really motivated now. If only I could feel similarly motivated about work!I want to be a writer0
