 This has been a lovely weekend to ease myself back into the working week. Two days on, two days off then back to routine tomorrow 
 Today this is me:-
 - [STRIKE]Checked banking[/STRIKE]
 - Update budget as OH put £25 fuel in my car
 - OH cleaned car yesterday instead of me paying the hand wash £7
 - Signed up for L0vefilm yesterday from house account, £5.99 for the first three months with £15 cashback tracking
 - DD is watching Tangled on it now 
 - [STRIKE]Take down tree and decorations today[/STRIKE]
 - [STRIKE]Shorten livingroom[/STRIKE] and bedroom curtains,[STRIKE] use a couple of 2 pences as curtain weights![/STRIKE] Well 50% is good enough for me!
 - [STRIKE]Encourage DD to tidy her own bedroom as she's 6 now![/STRIKE]
 - [STRIKE]B/L/D from stores[/STRIKE]
 - DB2 & GF arriving later this evening for tea, [STRIKE]cooking a cheap and easy chicken curry for us all[/STRIKE]
 - [STRIKE]Sign into LinkedIn to see if I can retrieve a message I accidentally archived last night.[/STRIKE] Once retrieved, reply to it again as I'm not sure it went through... This could be the smallest thing I do today that has the biggest impact 
 - [STRIKE]Make a week's worth of healthy wraps for my lunches and breakfasts to keep me on track!
 [/STRIKE] I also cooked OH's lunches while I was at it, one happy OH!
 Love to you all, no doubt will find more small things throughout the day.

 Happy with my day today, only 3.30pm too! Not been out the house today so no temptation to spend again. Feels a bit odd having been inside all weekend but the house feels ready for me to go back to work tomorrow
