Morning,
It's Saturday and after such a hectic week, work wise, I'm glad.
Weekly round up
Good things
Took my lunch to work every day
DH sorted out DC's passport forms
Stuck to meal plan
Work has been busy
DS had a great week at school
Bad things
Car has come up with needing yet another service - waiting for a call back from dealership
One AFD this week
A much better week this week.
Work wise, I think I may have annoyed someone as they tried to slope off on to me part of their job which I queried and she got told that, I'm ok to help but ultimately it's her job. I only queried it as I hadn't been told that I was now doing it. Oh well.
This weekend looks like this:- Top up shop - need a few bits
- DS has his friend over so they can do their English homework
- Washing
- Ironing
- Need to change our bed
- Need to nip to bank to pay two cheques in
It's my birthday next week, so I'm treating myself and buying my lunch that dayneed to get cakes for the site too.
DD is auditioning for the school play, 39 Steps, after school on Tuesday so she will need bus fare.
DS had a brilliant week at school and got some DARE points and like his sister, got extra money put on his account on Friday for it. Just hope he keeps it up.
Pay out from PA hit PayPal, so need to transfer that over and pay it off the Cap One card.0 -

You seem to be doing well.
Hope you have a lovely weekend and if you're not on here again before your birthday, hope you get spoilt on your special day ( and tomorrow too!)

You're as bad as me with the AFDs. I managed two this week, wanted three. One thing that helps me is I've discovered I like alcohol free lager, even though I don't like beer. It feels like you're having a treat. I usually drink wine and have tried AF wine - it's awful.
Have a fab weekend and Happy Birthday for next weekI get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)0 -
Sounds like you are back on track now. I love Center parcs. We just chill in the evening with the log fire and enjoy time as a family. Nothing compares to it. xSeptember 2017 Debt = £25330
Starting afresh.
You can do anything if you put your mind to it. x0 -

I quite like the AF wine, but not too keen on Eisberg, I find that Sainsbury's own is rather nice.
Thanks for the wishes xSounds like you are back on track now. I love Center parcs. We just chill in the evening with the log fire and enjoy time as a family. Nothing compares to it. x
That sounds wonderful, I'm really looking forward to it now x0 -
Morning,
Some bits and bobs paid off the Cap One card today, so that has gone down to a nice £433.67. My yearly target has now also changed and I'm 50% of the way to my new target for the year
Lunches are sorted for this week, bar Wednesday when I'm buying my lunch.
I'm still plodding on with the AFD's and will try to make a bit more of an indent this week.0 -
You sort all your lunches for the week on one day? Why don't I do that?
50% is greatIf you have built castles in the air, your work should not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them
Emergency fund 0/1000
Buffer fund 0/100
Debt March -1,119 (April) -889 (April) -498 (April) -378 (May) -875 July (190)0 -
Well done on 50% in March :T :T"If you can dream it, you can do it". Walt Disney0

Hi,
I'm still here but there is a lot going on in the background that probably means I won't be online for the foreseeable future.
Stressed isn't the word and I need to concentrate on the background stuff until it is sorted.0 -
So sorry to hear that, hope you're ok x0
