    12 hours sleep. Yay :)

    IT is weird. Once you start 'playing with it a bit' it quickly becomes second nature.

    Have a good weekend :)

    Well we wanted rain and we got it. Still pleasantly warm though and sat outside for a while before. As usual the 3 day weekend has flown by . I haven't spent a penny , other than my shopping which was a little over the budget £31.69 after stocking up on washing liquid at Mr A . I have de cluttered my wardrobe today and have some stuff to eBay , so will do that tonight hopefully.

    Babysat last night for DGD and they were ok. Not much planned this week, hoping for NSD galore. My lunch is made for tomorrow, defrosted my fish pie for dinner.

    Shower then going to watch Love Island .

    Have a good evening.

    We stayed quite close to the Haverthwaite railway when we stayed in May.

    Glad things in RL are sorting themselves and you slept well

    This week has been ok so far, yesterday was a NSD as well. Work has been challenging again and 2 late finishes but no crisis .
    Today I am finishing earlier as my DS is cooking for me, in return for ironing his shirts no doubt. I don't often get the chance to spend time with DS on a one to one basis so looking forward to it.

    On monetary matters , I have had my PPI payout £26.58 , small but free money and £30 for my glasses . Think this will be going in Oz fund.
    Some cash back is now tracking after I complained , and this is £43 if I get this I will be very pleased. I have also challenged myself since Jan on making a £10 overpayment to CC each month . Last month it was £30.73 thanks to PA . Just made a £5 one this morning so well on the way to this months £10.
    My car is due to be serviced and MOT this month , the money for that is in the acc I have £330 . Insurance in September I have around £420 for this saved as well.

    My blip in June with spending has ceased last month , the spare CC is well and truly frozen in the freezer.

    Best get ready for work.
