Bless ya Skinty it's only because i had no council tax and waterbill and i didn't go out as too busy marking. lol.
Two days left till payday. I hope i can carry on without spending any more!Aiming for a minimal spend 20220 -
I was so tired this weekend so I rested a lot and cancelled any meetups! I did do basic work prep for next week at work but nothing else. My lovely niece arrived with flowers and a gorgeous perfume for me for Mother's Day- how lovely.
I have spent £20 on plants/rubbish food which I shouldn't have done!I need to plan ahead to avoid this sort of thing.
We break up on Friday for hols. I do have a couple of things planned. A work social that I cant get out ofand also a holiday away with dear friends in a cute little village
:D:Twhich I should be able to cover from my Outfox the Market refund.

We shall see if the refund actually comes. lol. Ive been waiting for ages. My niece has asked if would like to go on holiday with her - I don't know I wanted to save for driving lessons but I cant decide if I want to travel again. She has no idea of where she wants to go yet. I think it might be exciting.Aiming for a minimal spend 20220

I am almost certainly going in the summer, I am also going to read the highway code over the summer too. Today I am just chilling. It is just nice to be home. I have had a huge lie in and now I am going to do some tidying and washing. :j
I spent £7 on house things I needed and then ordered 2pairs of shoes from internet as mine are about to fall apart. Really I should only have ordered one pair but I didn't think I would win both bids. I will have to make sure these will last for two years and the cost was £70.
Im starting to have doubts about summer hols. Maybe because I haven't been anywhere for ages. lol. I think I would rather save the money for driving lessons. lol. I am quite enjoying being a cheapskate!
One of my friends will not be working at the summer job he has had enough of the Company. I hope things aren't too bad as I want the job to keep fit and to save. Last year I earned £1000 which came in v useful and it kept me v happy too.Aiming for a minimal spend 20220 -
It is glorious outside and the weather is due to stay like this hurrah. I am doing the last of the washing and line drying. I also planted my bulbs. I was exhausted so I didn't do much else.
It is great to have two weeks off.Aiming for a minimal spend 20220
