Am half way through ironing. Boiling outside. Fell asleep.Aiming for a minimal spend 20220 -
I have chilled for most of the day. It has been a very moneysaving weekend. Then at the last minute I did the rest of the ironing. I must do a bit of gardening in a while.
I have decided to change my financial plans for the future. I am now going to save £250 a month in the kitchen fund for a new kitchen but not have an emergency fund but instead will keep my Christmas and present fund and save £50 a month. My dad and I decided it would be better to pay off the mortgage with any excess money I earn. So I am expecting a lot of overtime next month and I shall do that.
To do:
Put all of my upstairs notes into order week one and two
Bring home all folders round my desk and sort out into order week 3
Prepare work stuff in case I don't win lottery after a big breakAiming for a minimal spend 20220 -
After a drizzly start we now have steady rain here. I can't complain weather has been gorgeous until now. I have added a few more clothing items to fleabay as this month we get 100 free listings. I am selling over 20 items of clothing. Quite a few have watchers already. Let's hope they buy as the money is going straight to the kitchen fund. And even better, it will declutter my wardrobes which are packed.
I am supposed to be tidying my notes in the spare cupboard room but I am too scared to go in! lol. I might take the day off as it is a Sunday.;) Plus it's raining and no one should do anything horrid when it's raining.:oAiming for a minimal spend 20220 -
I am listening to the Housemartins whilst I recycle old notes I no longer need. It is like watching paint dry so I need happy music. I remember 'The Farmer' brilliant song.
Blimey how much paper do I waste in this job?
