must have walked at least two miles today and whilst she feels lower I don't feel like I should hold out for labour any time soon which is leading me to feel a bit pants! Not like me at all as I'm generally very emotionally stable if not veering a little the other way to seem a bit numb so I'm not enjoying it!
Went to M&S today for 2 decent pots to do jackets and treated my self to a cheese sconeI'd just been told I'd got a little more work :j
Also stopped at Li*l on way home and they had in their avocados and blueberries on offer. So total today of £4.10.
Had chilli I made yesterday with jacket pots and grated cheese.
Hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday

Hi guys, called into As*a on my way home yesterday for bread and Milk and a few other bits came to £26,17.
I must get in to the habit of only taking out a little bit of money to cover the cost of the items I need...... and I would not be able to spend more...
gone over my budget this month, but as its my first I will look where I can change over the next month..
Thanks for all your support and brilliant idea for this challenge.......
