whmf ouch ! for the car, but I hope you're ok. Have a hug or two.
Bunty I hope the procedure goes well tomorrow, I shall have everything crossed .... even my eyes and that's not a pretty sight :rotfl:
Chocolatelover I'm sorry that you have to work today, perhaps you can have your Mother's day on another one. Be like the Queen with 2 birthdays.
DD came round this morning and left me lots of pressies, so I am on a mission this afternoon to declutter chocs and wine. I shall keep the Bohemian Rhapsody film for another day as my Dad is here and I'll get no peace while watching, just lots of "why are they doing that ? " or what did he say ? " etc...
I hope everyone has a good day today.
Take care folks

2025 Frugal challenge0 -
Was thinking I should change my freezer as I have to de-clutter ice from around door every time I enter it, still everything frozen but …….. so as I was mulling over this, thereby de-cluttering my bank account I went to meet dd and family for a Saturday Mothering Sunday lunch when I accidentally de-cluttered my car. Waiting for insurance bods tomorrow to find out if it is terminal or if local garage can fix it. More bank de-cluttering but at least no-one was hurt. Not really in the mood for de-cluttering anything else at the moment.
Oh crumbs! Are you okay? I think you've earned the rest of the day off. I hope it's fixable: will you be stuck for transport?I think a bit of sunshine is good for frugal living. (Cranky40)

I need to get on this week after four hospital appointments last week. The cost of the parking certainly decluttered my purse.
I have a form to complete this morning then the toys need finishing once and for all. I'm struggling but keep going for it.
You're all getting on so well and keep me motivated. Thanks :T.1 debt v's 100 days chapter 34: T3sco bank CC £250/£525.24 47.59%

I think that's a brilliant idea. Sometimes you feel as if the count really doesn't reflect the effort. I hereby reserve the right to add the occasional "effort" decluttering item - promise I won't overuse it!2021 - mission declutter and clean - 0/20210
