Morning all, I hope you're well. Happy Friday!
WTBSE- I'm so sorry to hear that your mum has a tumor. It sounds awful and I hope the figure out what it is and what they can do about it soon. It really must be a terrible worry for you all.
Good news that you might be able to make some more savings! I won't be saving again for a couple of weeks I don't think, so I'm back onto the £1 tin savings until then to keep the momentum going.
I put £5 in there on Tuesday and £4 in last night
Well done ok not spending anything tooevery day like that is a great success!
Does anyone have anything nice planned for today? I'm waiting in for husband's new phone upgrade to be delivered and am going to pick up my nephew from school and watch him for a few hours. Other than that, a little bit of housework and spending time with my little man.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))

TattyCath and WTBSE, sounds like you've got quite easy days ahead of you
I like a nice easy Friday
I'm picking up my nephew from school again today and giving him his dinner so that should be fun.
I've had quite a headache for the last couple of days so I'll need to try to get rid of that before I pick him up! Two kids running around is enough to give anyone a headache!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))

Morning All.
I really should not have looked up the symptoms for ovarian cancer. My mum has every symptom listed.
Food shopping has been done. Spent £65. I'll need to get some fruit and veg during the week, but that's about it.0 -
Must be the first time ever I spent less than you lol.
So sorry to hear about your mum, hopefully they will get her into surgery ASAP.0 -
thanks atush. She has had several MRI's and CT scans as they are worried that it has attached itself to other areas too. She has another CT scan on Monday.0
