Hi everyone :wave:
Hope you are all having a lovely day.
I'm really sleepy today and possibly a bit hungover.Cannot be bothered to do anything even though the house is a bit of a tip and I have stuff to prep for tomorrow... For the time being I'm catching up with Victoria and reading my book.
CCL - I'm so glad you went to the docs. Keep resting when you need to and enjoy any down time you can
Just the usual from me:
Need to sort YNAB
Prep for tomorrow's class
Meals from stores
Night in tonight
Avoid the garden centre today if I can
Not much else to say tbh...0 -
Hi Frugalistas,
Today I've had some free exercise clearing a garden border. I've picked fruit & veg that was ready. Dinner will be leftover yummy lamb & courgette bake from last night. I'm now getting some leisure time. I've read 2 mags I was given, updated my blog & I'm now sitting in this fab sunshine reading a book I got from the charity bookshop.
Love to all,

What's your budget? where do you live?
See if there were any classic children's books published in 1975 and see if you can get a 1st edition?
Where I am the river stour runs through our town and they do river punting, think it's a tenner pp, and a bottle of fizz?
An hour session at a spa? My local one is £12.50 but the one a town out is £25 and soooooo lovely
I got given a hyacinth planting basket by someone last year which I loved! So it was a planter/basket, some soil and 3 bulbs. This was store bought but you could totally put it together
