Good morning
I'm determined to check in every day to keep me on track so here am again.
Yesterday the weather was decent so I walked to the gym did my workout and then walked back, I was shattered but feel better for it. Where my son lives they are very walking/bike friendly so it's nice walking about so the £3.10 I saved on bus fare will go off my credit card bill ( it all adds up)
It's snowed here and quite hilly so I don't plan on going out unless absolutely necessary, it's nice to look at but I don't bounce as well as I used to.
Keep warm everyone

Good morning guys
I'm snuggled up under my blankets cos it is freeeezing here, a caravan isn't a good idea when the temp is in the minuses. The heating is struggling to keep up and I'm feeling a little bit grumpy. On the up side I'm back in my little nest, but on the down side it means I'm not spending much time with my lovely boys, time is precious when you live hours away from them.
But enough of my whinging, with xmas and spending time away, with meals out and all the bicies and cake you just have to eat when visiting friends and family my diet has died and damage has definately been done so today is back to frugal. Frugal food and frugal spending on food. I really need to get as much off my credit card as possible this month, we go on holiday the last week of April so I need to be a slimmer, fitter, richer Cuddles by then.
So today will be an organisation day.
I plan to make a list of what is in the cupboards, and together with a small Mr t shop, make this stretch as long as possible.
I also need to start job hunting. I only want part time and it needs to be within walking distance. I've done the sums and it doesn't add up buying a car for a part time job and public transport isn't good where we are. So my cv needs updating, OH says he will print me some out at work when I've done itand then onwards and upwards. I've been looking on the job sites and have alerts for local jobs in my local area set.
Time for a nice cup of tea now I think
Keep warm and well everyone

Hi guys
Feeling a little more settled and organised today. Yesterday I made a list of everything in my cupboards and with a small shop will manage well over a week without needing anything
I felt even better when it started to snow and I don't need to leave home. Nice to look at, not so nice to walk about in. Today will be a NSD
This months credit card payment made plus a little more and I will add extra payments during the month as I make savings.
I'm using up a tin of hotdogs with baked beans and jacket potatoes for tea so won't take long to make and cheap and warming
I hope everyone is keeping warm and well
Better get on
Cuddles:)
