    Evening Diary,

    Happy Hump Day!!!! Cannot believe its nearly Thursday already (I'm sure I say this at least once a week!).

    Ive been so tired this week, think I need to hibernate or something! 7 more working days until half term :j and apparently its only 100 working days until we break up for summer according to someone at work :eek::rotfl:.
    Wednesday is my day off the gym and I'm enjoying the early sit down with a cup of tea.

    So had a spend day today:
    £1 on some cut flowers in the farmshop whilst buying some for colleagues birthday at the farmshop
    £17.50 waxing (own spending money)

    Today is DH's payday, so the joint account looks lovely... until tomorrow when the DD's go out :rotfl:

    Put my 31p into my 365 days pot.

    Food:
    Breakfast - usual! Porridge with nutella and banana
    Lunch - cheese salad sw on wholemeal roll, quavers, yoghurt
    Tea - sweet potato wedges and roasted pepper topped with bolognaise
    Snack - kitkat

    Positives from today:
    * Used up some sweet potato and red pepper in fridge past its best for tea. Also made some soup for tomorrow's lunch
    * Thankful for an earlier sit down than in previous nights :D

    Hope all ok xx

    Evening Diary,

    Had a busy couple of days so haven't had chance to update. Went out last night so spent the day feeling a bit delicate :rotfl:. Today is my first NSD of the month.

    Nothing much to report, had a brilliant night last night, had a such a laugh. Think I spent about £35 so not too bad either.

    Hope everyones ok, will have a proper catch up tomorrow! xx
