    I too am up early, not sleeping well, but dog tired really, think hayfever has eventually hit.

    So, thinking maybe make a micro dumpling for work today , see how it goes after shower/wash hair etc.

    Late night, last night but still up early this morning, enough planned for today, lets hope I get through it.

    Have a lovely, but rather sad, trip planned for tomorrow to a most beautiful part of the country, and have relatives arriving from down under the next week, at very short notice :eek:

    Need to get busy.

    Another £6.86 o/p taking me into the £17's :j

    Very early start today, on the go the whole day, covered a couple of hundred miles. Exhausting.
    Still was something that needed doing and time was getting on, so today was the day.
    Had the most wonderful home [STRIKE]baked[/STRIKE] made Lemon & Coconut slice, on my travels today,
    delicious, so have looked up the recipe - which is a no bake recipe, can't wait to try it.

    Found £3.41 in a handbag I rarely use, so won't miss what I didn't have - straight to o/p fund.

    Exhausted so, bedtime.

    Awake early again today with the dreaded hayfever.

    New target to take me to Oct will be £2,400 but have around half of that already :) not sure how I'll do this yet, but that's what targets are for. Pushing myself to limits unknown.

    1274.71/2400

    I made a start today on my new target today.
    • Walked to work - saving and exercise :)
    • Took Lunch in with me - saving
    • Posted ebay item - made a few £'s
    • completed survey - £'s in the bank (so to speak)
    Have let the lunches lapse lately, so will be making more of a conscious effort - saving and being more organised. Have lunch ready and waiting in fridge for tomorrow. Win, win.
