Managed a no spend day on Tuesday and a low spend day (£1.60 to be precise, and that was a business expense) yesterday. We'll see what today brings.
Today I need to:

Edit
List
Sort some stuff out to sell
Catch up with washing
Sort out a couple of boxes of stuff
I need to get back to kon Marie more stuff. I'm drowning in all sorts of stuff.
The extra mortgage payments (over and above the overpayments I make within the monthly payment), have fallen by the wayside somewhat. That said, I'm optomistic that I can still achieve MFIT4 target if I get my rear in gear and build my business.

Shopping yesterday and today.
I still haven't done any Christmas shopping yet.
Bought food yesterday-£120 but that covered loads of stuff we do t need to buy every week like pet food and detergent etc. So I'm happy with that.
Was unwell-again-yesterday so had an early night last night.
Today I feel like we've done loads and not achieved very much.
I really need to stick to lists, I perform much better when I work from lists.
Very busy week ahead. Need to be up super early tomorrow! I'll probably be working flat out from about half 6 until gone 6 tomorrow night.
Better go and make my first list.GE 36 *MFD may 2043

It's manic here at the moment and likely to continue for a few weeks yet.
I didn't even have time for breakfast until after 3 this afternoon!
Been working flat out.
Just having 5 minutes to catch my breath before I have to start again. Lots to do.

Targets for November:
Get on with listing
Finish sorting kitchen
Finish sorting bedroom
Make £250 from TCB, selling up unwanted stuff etc
Save £300
Start Christmas shopping
Sort electrics
Sort loft
£60 petrol
£250 grocery spends
I think that's more than enough to be going on with. Lol
Update. Kitchen and bedroom still need sorting. I ended up making £138/£250
Saved £300
I have started Christmas shopping.
Electrics and loft still need sorting.
Petrol spends were only £40
Slightly over on grocery spends.
November was a mixed bag really. although I didn't achieve everything I wanted to achieve, it is the run up to Christmas and I've been extremely busy with work etc.
I may have to set easier, more achievable targets for December.GE 36 *MFD may 2043

Well done on hitting your "getting rid of things target", think I might set myself one for 2017. Could probably match your 150 just from the murky depths of my wardrobe lol.
