The best laid plans and all that. Major work crisis so no time to meet friend. Had to purchase lunch but 15p change went to the charity box. Think I may have a spendy few days. I've booked a deep tissue massage on Saturday, am going for dinner with friends on fri night and got an email telling me there's 25% off tu clothing until Monday. There are two tops I've had my eye on that will be finding a new home with me. One will be for work and the other cos I love it and it's not dissimilar to a monsoon one at more than twice the price.Mortgage at 01.01.14 £119,481.83:eek: today £0 Emergency fund £5.5/5.5k & £200/200 cash.:jWeight 24/02/19 14st 7lb now 12st determined to stop defining myself by my mistakes.

The deep tissue massage is a great idea for keeping healthy when times are very stressful, and so are Tu tops at bargain prices.
I made the fatal mistake of learning massage techniques years ago, and now DH enjoys me administering them on a regular basis, I was cornered last night, whereas his attempts at massage make me feel like I am being strangled. I may send him on a free course ....."I wondered why the Frisbee was getting bigger, and then it hit me". £9/£250

Hi peeps, thanks for the comments, am now safely home to a scrummy dinner served up by OH. Quite a good ms day as brought lunch with me and any cash spends were for parking etc that I claim back. Also, fed the gas guzzler but with lower diesel duty combined with a stronger pound I saved approx 22p a litre.
Today I'm grateful for
OH making lunch and dinner
