One day till the weekend and 3 days till payday! I have mowed the grass v quickly and weeded one section of the garden. It isnt fantastic but it will do. I put down some lobelia and some pretty purple bedding plants. I would like to buy some more in the next few days.Aiming for a minimal spend 20221

Hurrah it is the weekend, I have just spent £25.00 buying petunias, gloves, tomatoes, stakes and Sweet Williams for garden.
Just when i was about to give up a new job is being advertised fairly locally (within bus distance). It is more interesting than what i am currently doing, pays a bit more than my current job but it means losing some of my time off in the week & it opens up future opportunities up for me so I will apply this weekend.
That's this weekend sorted then! The weather is gorgeous but sugars v low so i am eating. Lots.Aiming for a minimal spend 20222 -
Not bad spends for what you've picked up and will last a few years. Keep some tomato seeds for next year.
Good luck with the application!Mortgage started 2020, aiming to clear 31/12/2029.1 -
I've started to fill the form in and plan to finish it on Sunday when the rain starts. I had a huge rest when i got in from work as i was so tired. So glad to have escaped. After watering I planted some Sweet Williams in front of the garden swing. Thank goodness for the hot weekend.

Think you need some proper time off to rest.

Bless you MF, I will have my summer hols v soon but am going to just do some essentials.
Jobs for today while weather is good:
1. Wash whites
2. Clear some weeds from veg area and plant green beans
3. Plant 5 petunias ( i have loads) soil is too hard to so will do others after rain.
4. Visit corner shop to get chocs as keep having hypos in heat.
5. Replant tomato bits and cucumber in greenhouse.
