Only two days left till the weekend. Hooray.
I sponsored someone £5 for charity. Does that count as a spend? I haven't spent any money at work yet this week I don't think.Aiming for a minimal spend 20220 -

I'm writing everything in it. I just want to pay off this months credit card bill which is going to be big. After this its only going to be used for food.Aiming for a minimal spend 20220

All I spent at work this week was £0.70 today on a bar of chocolate for a student. Hooray for the weekend. It rained just as I arrived home. I'm shattered and am going to bed.Aiming for a minimal spend 20220

I am, I watched some telly last night and slept as soon as I got in from work.
Today I have nice weather till 12 so I am putting a wash out. My second load of washing was soaked in the rain as I couldn't face diving out when it began. House is tidy and mopped. I might do some ironing and am watching tv.Aiming for a minimal spend 20220 -
I spent most of the day resting as blood sugars were a bit pants - caused by eating bacon crisps! which always make my sugars high.
Overall though it has ended well as I did plenty of work.
My fab niece visited which cheered me up also.
I spent £2.44 in local shop on rubbish food.
I spent £13.00 including postage on a picture for my room. This is my spending for the rest of the week. No more I promise.Aiming for a minimal spend 20220 -

It should have been £50 but we shall see. I have bought shoes, and now the painting. (16+ 12). Everything else has been food I think. As long as I can pay my credit card bill of £300 from this months pay packet I shall be ok.
I spent £1.20 on a pasty at work. I did take food in but ended up starving so I ate twice!!!! Greedy me.
It's my day off tomorrow but I will be working from home! I do have some shopping to do also.Aiming for a minimal spend 20220
