Life has been a whirl the past few days , training day at work last week. Child care Friday. Busy Saturday, housework etc. Supporting a local church in the afternoon. No football for me , thank goodness. Sunday brought shopping, a sweaty ironing session, plus a trip to A&E with DD who had a little accident involving her eye, she will be ok in a few days .
My nose is healing really well, even I am amazed.
Money is all ok, no unnecessary spends, shopping was in budget. I picked up a few things to stash away for school holidays days out like crisps, carton drinks etc., to try and get it slowly rather than forking out all in one go. I had £25 left over from personal spends last pay month, plus I received £25 from healthcare insurance for day surgery on my nose, this went to Oz spending fund. I also found a scratch card received at Xmas and won £10 on it , paying that off CC so new balance is now £3980

Don't normally post on Friday as busy with DGD but she is asleep. Have had news from OZ today that the wedding I was invited to that started the whole trip on its way is now not happening ! Basically they have parted company the couple. Sad but these things happen. Of course I am still going on the trip but don't need an outfit now or a wedding present.
Been to HB this morning and spent £10.31 on toiletries and some other items . The rain has stopped for the time being, but it is still warm.
DGD will be awake soon for her lunch so best get moving.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -
