    Grr had to spend today, needed milk as DH won't be back till late and as I had to take the kids I had to buy cakes as bribes to get them to comply.

    Sigh, I thought I had a run of NSD in the bag but poor planning including running out of dog food and forgetting OH cereal bars off the shopping has prevented that. On the bright side I'm gearing up to only have one spendy day, next Wednesday; I've already done next weeks meal plan and shopping list (just staples and a few finishing off bits for meals), we have 15kg of dog food, all the insulin and special food we need, and two loaves of bread in the freezer so will do the online shop on Wednesday for collection on Friday and all should be good. Slipped an exercise session in just now, fast walk interspersed with some running with Millie who is now officially knackered. Also going to declare today as a no binge day, as I'm feeling pretty good and have plenty to keep me occupied all day :)

    New totals in my sig!

    Our greatest weakness lies in giving up; always try just one more time

    I am feeling very pleased with myself. I went into town to buy Father's Day presents and cards, I had a budget of £20 for 3 cards and 3 presents and I managed to get all 3 sorted plus a childs birthday present and card all within the £20.

    We are going out for tea today for a birthday which isn't costing us anything so we will all be fed for nothing:D.

    Finally stopped raining here for a bit so will have to walk the dog in a moment. I did manage a bike ride this morning in the rain aswell.

    I am claiming another NSD and a sweaty exercise session :j.

    mothernerd, I've been through my seeds and after tidying up the front garden and weeding, I've emptied all the flower seeds out there! Potentially a forest of blooms may flower, but most of the seeds were out of date, and I'm not expecting much!

    Not got onto the veg yet. Suspect I may need to buy a bag of compost first, which'll require the car.

    Mrs GSR, we ran out of milk too, but dh said he's go and get it, so he spent his money! He came back with choc biccies and brioche for himself - dd and I can't eat them - so I've since made some brioche-y choc chip cakes for dd. She is currently stuffing one down, and spilling crumbs everywhere! So I guess, they taste ok...

    :wave:

    So yesterday and today were spend days and tomorrow will be too :(

    Weighed myself yesterday morn (usually do on a Friday) and I haven't lost any weight this week! Really need to stop nibbling and start doing my zumba everyday...

    We usually have a takeaway on a Friday (bad for the diet I know but this was the last one we are having for a while much to OH disagreement!) and it was my turn to buy this week. Will come out of personal spends. Then I drove to see a friend so OH wanted me to put petrol in and then I went to the shop for something for tea and a green top for a work event and ended up spending £15! :eek: Tomorrow I need to do the weekly shop for lunches and a few bits to make up teas so wont be a NSD tomorrow either :(

    Will update totals in sig now but on the bright side I have done my zumba today so thats another exercise done :o

    Hope you are all having a nice weekend :)

    First Saturday when I exercise instead of having an ice cream in front of a TV. Wow...

    Evening All,


    Been MIA for two days due to falling asleep on the sofa (thurs) and working late (fri). Managed an SFD on Friday, my mum bought DD's birthday cake and family brought round nibbles for the party today. Was a bit hectic but DD had a great time, lots of presents (cheapy ones from me!) so have just spent an hour trying to rearrange my lounge so I have room to use it!


    Had to pop to greengrocers this morning as well as get cat biscuits. Heard a horrible rumour that our little independent supermarket is being turned into a T*sco :( Totally ruined my day. The supermarket we have stocks all the usual as well as lots of products from local and small suppliers that you don't find anywhere else. And we have a brilliant high street, it's the traditional variety which seems to have disappeared for the most part. By letting MrT's in, it feels like we are losing that. Anyhoo, that's my rant for today.


    Totals today:
    SFD 2/15
    Groceries £17.88/£80
    Misc £10.48/£40
    Petrol £0/£30
    Exercise 6/25
    Meals 7/30
    Tidy 7/30


    Have a lovely sunday all xxx

    Today I am grateful for getting out in the garden to weed and sow, for sewing + stuffing + stitching up some things, for dd and her scooter, for hair dye, for balm tissues.
