Well Hello diary oops been a while since I popped in.

Well paid off 30 last week and 100 pounds off today. Total now 5118.99

Had to buy a new radiator for the house, old was crumbling away with rust when I tried to paint it. Ordered it through work so should get it lot cheaper but still have to pay plumber 60 pounds for fitting it today.

Trying to avoid using my overdraft but going to very tight next few weeks.

Also agreed to buy some furniture at a steal of price off friend for 100 pounds which means can bin argos furniture in my spare room.(Maybe get something for the wardrobe). However this was not budgeted for so leaves me tad broke. Such good quality furniture couldn't resist.

Been busy doing up my house last two weekends, decluttering and painting. Bathroom has a whole new lease of life without spending anything, had the paint in. Kept me out of the shops anyway.

Glad it's the weekend, felt flat all week not helped by not being 100%and today marks 2 yrs since I lost my sister. So a weepy mess today - not like me and don't remember being this bad last year.
