Hooray for Easter! Hope you've had some chocolate as well
I got an egg at church and yummy choc from my folks, as did DD. We're down in Bath for a few days of chilling out and eating choccy.

I bought a gorgeous little bag yesterday from fleabay for £6 (instead of £70!!!!). I love finding a good bargain. Today I have given myself some tasks to do: half my ironing and one load of marking. It is raining like crazy out there.Aiming for a minimal spend 20220

hey savingswannabe,
I'm just catching up on everything I've missed in the last couple of months. I'm so glad your work environment is nicer now that Creepy McCreepy has left the buildingThough I do have to agree with Kittikins that running out of food is not something that would ever happen in my house :embarasse

Hello Pinky it's good to hear from you. Welcome back.
I have had such a lazy day. I've done a bit of work this afternoon thank goodness and ordered something from fleabay for £40. OMG. It will be so good but it wasn't a necessity. Yikes.
I must be good. I must be good. I'm living on baked beans for rest of the month. Onwards with my marking.......Aiming for a minimal spend 20220 -
I agree with the baked beans! I've been spending again today, nothing too horrendous, but it's all adding up....eeek0

i have been woken up to 3 bunches of flowers from Steve and Andy. They are gorgeous and were reduced to 25p each in supermarket so they sent them with Susan who came late last night.
Two are squished into a vase and I have given one to lovely neighbours who are also delighted. I keep offering to marry Steve but he keeps turning me down as he is married to Andrew. lol.
Seriously though, it does make you wonder how much these flowers actually cost the supermarkets when they were originally £6 each and now they are 25p.
Lovely hairdresser is coming at 1 until then I am marking...... So today I will spend £14 on a haircut.Aiming for a minimal spend 20220 -
What lovely friends you have
Steve's very selfish if he doesn't have a brother for you!!
Enjoy the haircut, I need one (and taming of the eyebrows) when we get back home, feeling a bit shaggy!0 -
They've cheered me up I have done a pile of work really quickly. So happy. I only have 2 more tasks to do (big ones) to catch up with January work. Then I can start this terms marking.
Still it's nice to have a haircut. I feel inspired. Long may it last. lol. :j:beer:
Steve doesn't have a brother. Neither does Andy. :mad::(:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:Aiming for a minimal spend 20220 -
Ok I have done one load of marking but have still got to do the front sheets and write one lesson. I mowed some of the grass today. I couldn't do it all as I would be too tired.
I'm chilling now. Ill do some more work in a bit. All my fleabay purchases have arrived. So happy.Aiming for a minimal spend 20220 -

I feel you on the baked beans! We're fairly short on money for the rest of this month (about £150 left until payday, to include petrol for work) as I topped up our ISAs with last month's payday. My lovely husband then came home from the gym today to inform me he'd come back via SportsDirect who had a 20% off sale so he'd treated himself to over £50 of new sports clothes that he doesn't even need :eek:MFW2023 challenge #99: £1090.11 / £1,000 MFiT-T6 (Jan 2022 - Jan 2025) challenge #99: Reduce mortgage to £400,000.
