Evening absolutely shattered so just a quick update to keep me straight, but have had a lovely day and DH bought lunch which was a lovely treat.
Finances done this morning and a couple of bay items relisted, also posted ebay items first thing this morning. $11 amazon withdrawn from survey site which will be around £8. Small ebay sale today £4.
Spends today a bit complicated as I had some Christmas money £80 and bought everyday clothes for holiday this summer and work clothes, so work clothes will come off my challenge amount, but holiday clothes have come out of my Christmas money, I refuse to buy work clothes with my Christmas gift money.
Also new week starts for grocery spends and have had a veg box order and butter/milk.
Spends today-
Veg box order £28.70
Body shop - £16.95 - Christmas money
Gap - £12.78 - work clothes, challenge money.
Yankee candles - £16 - Christmas money.
Next- holiday clothes - £27 (bought 2 skirts, maxi dress, blouse)
Next - work trousers x2 £14
So I still have £20 of Christmas money left, £42 of personnel spends left but i'm taking DD to cinema tomorrow.

Evening quick update before tea, just spag bol so nice and easy.
Slept until 9am and only woke because DH brought me a cup of tea up, yesterday shopping wiped me out and i'm starting to worry if i'm going to manage going back to work, only time will tell.
Took DD to the cinema to watch pitch perfect which cost £15 or the 2 of us and I bought us a latte each as we were so cold and didn't want soft drinks from pound shop, did buy sweets in pound shop so a £2 spend there.
Listed a few items on ebay this afternoon and have some things to list tomorrow, sold a couple of bits today as well but not been paid for yet so nothing to hols fund, £1 TT made though to everyday account.

Work will get easier every time you go in. If you get tired, give your class lines to write (do children even know what lines are? I once threatened DS with lines and he didn’t know what I was talking about).0

Hi HHoD, days in are consecutive, but does mean I get a super long weekend to recover.
