Thank you Skinty I am finally getting there with the no spending thing. It has only taken me two months to figure it out!!! It has only been 10 days but i have only spent on food and essentials. I have £60 left to spend and an £80 cc bill for next month. It is raining here, yuk.Aiming for a minimal spend 20222

Every day is a blessing. Yesterday he spoke for a while. Today has managed to get out of bed today and did enjoy the flowers. We are hoping the new meds work to make him a little more comfortable. Andy is doing a sterling job and the nurses and doc's come daily. Today I am hoping he might be able to watch Rugby as he does enjoy that.
It has rained here on and off and very windy. I have only vacuumed. The neighbours are doing a v noisy DIY project so i cant do any work. I might go and change some lightbulbs downstairs . I hope he stops by tomorrow so i can do some work. 10 working days till payday.
Reminder to myself i will not save all my council tax Jan and Feb money next year I will keep some for nice things so i dont feel poor. I have £37 but this is fine for fruit and veg till the end of the month. There is enough for emergencies too £200 in xmas fund.Aiming for a minimal spend 20221
