Afternoon
Meters successfully changed
House clean and organised. Washer is on and the sun is shining (It's still cold though!)
Just having a cuppa and then need to swap the washing over and make sure everything's ready for this evening. I think I will do school run, feed smalls (Pie, mash and veg) Then go to the meeting at 5.30 back home for 7pm quick bath and bed only slightly late!

You sound as though you're on a roll! It's cold here too, but without the sun. I am sorting a big, big bookcase so if I don't return in reasonable time, sound the alarms.
Hope your meeting goes well.I think a bit of sunshine is good for frugal living. (Cranky40)

It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.
