Dinner tonight will be cheese and onion mash, beans and battered fish. Was supposed to make it yesterday but ended up with pizza instead.
Then I will be going to take my youngest to cubs, then i'll come home and get everything ready for tomorrow.0 -
Cornwall? ...
Yay
I'm back in St Ives in Cornwall.
Within the next half an hour we are going to nip down to the Post Office, do a small amount of retail therapy and then walk our gorgeous Border Terrier on the beach.
How I love it down here :dance:"One hundred years from now, it will not matter what kind of car I drove, what kind of house I lived in, how much was in my bank account, nor what my clothes looked like but the world may be a little bit better because I was important in the life of a child."0 -

WTBSE- have you managed to do 'nothing' yet today? I'm currently doing nothing while husband watches football, although this is the first I've sat down all day.
I've never been to Cornwall but I'd like to!
Well, husband got paid today (weekly) and although I wasn't planning on putting any into savings but I had a look today and have managed to spare £50
That brings my total to £1030! I've broken the £1k barrier. Woop! Now to see how much I can afford to put in on pay day and see if I can meet my £1400 end of month target. I think it'll all depend on whether husband gets paid for these homers any time soon...I'm just itching to see the numbers adding up!
I also had two £2 coins in my purse earlier so they went straight into the tin.
In the spirit of location-based games, where am I from?CC1: £4481.14/ £5031.14 (12% paid off, £600) | CC2:£3307/ £3807 (14.4% paid off, £550) | Loan: £10,528.20/ £15,792.30((33% paid off, £5,264))
July debt total: £24,630.44 | New debt total: £18,316.34 | Total debt paid: £6,414.10 (26%)
