    Am in the football free zone that is my dining room :) Mr SA is watching the match in the living room. This will be the pattern during the World Cup - no way am I watching any of it. Apologies to any football fans out there. Quite cosy in here actually - glad I kept the old sofa:)

    The budget is still on track and looking good for there being a surplus left at the end of the week to go into the holiday pot. I bought Mr SA an England sweatshirt today but still within budget

    Still determined, not flagging :)

    I HATE football but luckily for me DH hates it too :rotfl:

    No WW class this morning as the leader woke up to find her husband dead in bed this morning :( What an awful shock for her. Really brings it home that life is so precious.


    That's very sad, poor lady :(

    Happy Sunday :)

    Finances done already. Underspend of £24.46, not quite as much as I'd hoped but an underspend nonetheless. £4.46 has gone into VSP and £20 has gone into holiday fund.

    Today will be NSD 3 of June. No plans to go anywhere today other than take the dog on the park across the road.

    Still need to do the meal plan for the week, make my soup for work lunches and a few other bits and bobs.

    Have a fab Sunday folks :)

    Mr SA tried to sabotage my NSD by asking me to order him a phone case from Amazon. It was a battle but I won in the end :)

    Got all my jobs done this morning so spent the afternoon in the garden relaxing in the sunshine :)

    I love summer :)

    Here's to another week of sticking to the budget. Determined to do it again.
