Grandchildren were here before the sun was up this morning. Fed therm dressed them and out for a drive Also had lunch out thanks to Mr D. Had a very short walk on the beach, we got caught in a downpore. Home now drying out and watching a film..
One of the eBay parcels posted, still waiting for payment for the other two. I have also taken the Next parcel to the corner shop to be returned. :j So a small spend for me today on postage.
Back to work tomorrow, need to pack my bag as I am doing a night shift as well and plan my meals as the healthy eating starts tomorrow.

Thank you 12MC.
Today has been my first day back in work since before the New Year and I have found it hard going, working an extra shift and a healthy eating plan. I would love a bar of chocolate right now.
Today has been a NSD, I have fetched all my meals and snacks into work. Checked bank account all looking ok. No real debt dusting going to happen until the 15th when I get paid.
Still waiting for two payments from eBay, also relisted a few items this evening.

Mr D had news when I got home, he has had a plasterer to give him a quote last night to plaster over the artex ceiling in our bedroom. So new carpet and painting required.Mr D will be footing the bill. Everything will have to be moved out of the bedroom, good excuse for a sort out
Healthy eating is going well, no chocolate since Monday, lots of fruit and veg. Pasta in tomato sauce and a side salad for dinner this evening .

Yay way to go Doris I too have been sticking to my healthy eating plan. Weighed myself last Saturday and will weigh again this Saturday. Fingers crossed it goes down just like my debt :rotfl:
Work is so hard to get back into after a holiday. Once you go back it takes time to get back in the swing of it :mad:
Keep going with your debt plans and roll on the 15th when you can hopefully make payments :T
