Hi :hello:

It sounds like you've made some great inroads already so don't feel down about progress, lists certainly help me keep focused and also a sense of achievement when I cross an item off!

Hope you get some sales from fb and your craft items.

Good luck, C x

Thanks, I really feel it too :T

Thankyou all for your well wishes, means a lot. I'm intrigued by what others have put on their lists? As in maybe there's some ideas I can steal:rotfl:

Feeling somewhat bummed out today. Think its a combination of tiredness, preschooler antics and puppy woes, mixed with money stress, boredom and hunger.....

Chin up CAFCGirl your doing great. DD was supposed to use half term week to sort out stuff for car boot sale but it doesn't seem to have happened. I'm slightly disappointed that it hasn't been done.

May have to tackle the job myself tomorrow

I'm not really doing 'anything' and I think that's where I'm bumming myself out, because I'm not seeing 'results' iyswim.
I'm going to make every effort to have a frugal/low spend June.

We have plenty of food in the cupboards so shouldnt need much really, just need to get inventive and use up whats there. We have a 2 whole salmons portionned up in the freezer, plus some other fish in there. So its just the side stuff really.
Although we struggle with the junk/snacky type foods to just grab and eat.

Had an awful experience with a takeaway last night (not afterward but during) so I've vowed to not eat one again, I feel mentally traumatised!

Its DS's birthday this month and we've already ordered tickets for our day out. I'll pack us a lunch though. Hopefully minimising the need to buy a £9 burger (though I imagine DH still will), plus its better for me as theres often very little choice (and you pay through the roof!) for the vegetarian option.

On the plus side, have the cash from selling DS's old swing set, so that's £30 put aside.

I need to re-consult my list, pick one, and get it done

Almost forgot!
DH recycled our old mobile phones last night so that's £100 coming our way too

Well done CAFCGirl. I always recycle my phones as I go along so can't even look for any old ones.

Have a good Sunday

Hope you had a good day too Desperate - did your DD sort through any items?

I'm quite pleased this morning as my student finance application for my OU degree in October has been agreed. Just waiting on a form to be delivered, sign and send back and all should be well in the world for that starting.
I need to find out what I might need supplementary though.... so I can start buying or start saving...

Hi CAFCGirl,

Good news on the OU funding. I'll be having my Learning Grant in October time for the second year of my degree so that'll be a bit of spare cash.

Yes DD has sorted through some stuff, just need to get myself organised and plan when I'm doing a boot sale
