    The days are running away with me.

    Things are ticking along but money is getting tight. Would like to get to DH's payday on 30th October but I'm doubtful we will.

    So plan for today is to sort through the cupboards and freezer to see what meals we have.

    Will go shopping tomorrow but if I am to make it till the 30th I only have £27 to spend a week :eek:
    It's freezing here but trying to avoid putting the heating on to save the pennies.
  • :wall: Argh I went food shopping today and well I didn't stick to my £27 budget (really didn't think it was possible).

    But when I got home and opened the mail there was a tax rebate (not massive just under £100 but it all helps).

    So my over spend hopefully won't harm the bank balance too much.

    Not much planned this weekend, depends on the weather. Today it was very mixed, I hung a wash out only for an hour later the rain to be bouncing off the ground.
