Afternoon all, I am at work (overtime) I am here tomorrow too (this weekend's money will go on end of march pay and I will use for the kids b'day party)

Just on a lunch break, had a tuna sarnie, not had one for years, was lush

I feel really tired today, didn't sleep that well, and DD came in the room at midnight cos she had had a bad dream, took me a while to get back to sleep after that

I need to update my signature and POAMAYC totals, I will do it when I get home and I am with my laptop

Have managed to put £125 into the centre parcs savings yay

Ordered the hubby's and DS's birthday presents, I have booked the kids joint party had to book it for the week later than I wanted, but that's ok, I ordered 50 personalised invitations off ebay yesterday which have already been posted, so that's full steam ahead, I will probably give them out on the 15th march, gives people 3 weeks notice, we have hired the whole of the soft play out, DS is turning 9 so I don't expect too many from his class to come (some will be too cool to go to softplay lol) but most of DD's class will likely come (she is turning 6), so I just need some sweets for both DS and OH and cards, then I am all sorted.

Then it is DD's birthday in April

I have decided to start tracking my NSD's, I am going to aim for 20 (might be too high but I won't know till I try lol) I will still call it a NSD if a DD comes out, or the weekly shop or petrol, as they are regular normal payments, so I will only lose the NSD if I spend outside of those

Well that's my lunch break over, have a good day all xx

Morning everyone, work again for me today.

Just had an email from YNAB saying I have only a week left on my trial (noooooooo) I have emailed them and asked if I can have an extension on the trial as I don’t have the lump sum payment to pay for it yet (I could take it out of my centre parcs savings if they say no)
Fingers crossed I get another month then I can pay for it in one go after end of March pay, then I will be saving £7 a month from then onwards to pay for it each year.

I also need to check with them about student discount as the hubby is a student now (part time) and whether we can apply the discount (hopefully we can as it’s a joint budget)

Have a good day all xx

Hopefully they will let you extend your free trial. You can only ask, can't you.xx

If they say no, could you cancel yours and get your husband to take out a free trial?

That's a good idea TCC, it wouldn't take too much to set up a new on again, I have heard they are usually pretty good with extensions so fingers crossed

Just booked our meals for Centre Parcs we get there friday lunch time, we are going to Bella Italia friday evening, the Indians on Saturday evening, the pub for carvery sunday evening and brunch at Cafe rouge on the monday before we come home

Next payday I will book the activities, then we have April and May pay to save the spends for while we are there, we usually have breakfast in the lodge, then pack a picnic for lunch and just eat out for dinner xx

If it's all paid for in advance, that will make it much easier when you are there too. I usually pay for activities in advance an also book the meals too.
