    Yesterday was smart meter installation day , seemed to go ok. They replaced the electric one I already had ! . Childminding was fun, we walked to and from school at pickup time as it was such a lovely day . DGS is a good little walker for a nearly 4 yr old.

    Today has been about cleaning the flat, washing and doing a shopping list for tomorrow. Been for my waxing £11 , the £12 from M&S has hit my account so will transfer to savings buffer.

    Baby sitting later , but should not be a late night so I am told ! .
