Evening Wednesday
Another really busy day didn't even have chance to go for a walk at lunch so my steps are a bit poor today. However, means I managed a NSD and lunch to work so very pleased with that.
Got my next statement today and they have charged £3.48 interest this needs to go asap.

Another no spend day but tomorrow may be a different story as I need to pop out for bread and promised the girls a little treat. The girls could also do with some new socks theirs are looking worst for wear now and my youngest needs a couple more polo shirts for school but I will have to get these once I get paid.

Evening NMC. These weeks are flying by aren't they. Well done on the no chocolate/biscuits/sweets days. Do you walk most of your steps just going about your daily routine or do you go to the gym? I'm sure you've said but I can't remember

Thanks Tea.
When I was younger I couldn't wait to be 18, my mum always said don't wish your life away after 21 it goes quick so true.
I am trying, could do better I do have a raging sweet tooth. Mostly through walking, its quicker to get to places and I am lucky to live near the school, train station, supermarkets, retail park all no more than 15 mins walk at the most.
I do enjoy clubbercise and pilates but not been to clubbercise for a while with work and girls but need to get back I miss it. I would like to join a gym but they are quite expensive and not sure if I will get my monies worth, something to consider once I know about my job.
Have a fun Friday

Morning Friday,
Really must get going and start to organise and clean the chaos which is my house. Washing to catch up on too and to sort my budget out for March pay. Need to call at morribobs for some bits. My weekly entertainment budget for this week is £24.00 I have £4 left over from this week but need a new sweeping brush, mine has snapped in half. Living the dream ...

Hello Saturday
Went to WW this morning 2lb off which is a miracle but will take it and run. My oldest has gone to football this afternoon but youngest isn't feeling to bright so she has stayed at home with me. Going to spend quite a nice chilled day and read my new WW magazine and meal plan for the week.
Cleaned house yesterday so just a bit of hoovering and straightening up to do nothing too testing for a Saturday. Just has lunch at home and planning on Chicken Jalfrezi and Naan bread for tea.
Spends today are
£2.00 coffee
£2.50 WW magazine
£1.00 Crackers (breakfast)
Total £5.50
I also had to finish off a present for my friends birthday had £9 left and bought:
Book - £4
2 x cans of cocktails - £2
Baileys Chocolates - £2
I bought her birthday card in January and already have the gift bag and wrap so I will sent the £1 to my mobile phone fund.
I have rounded my entertainment budget off to £14.00 (had spent £13.06) so another 94p to 1p savings challenge.

2 sleeps till payday. I plan to refresh my budget for the month ahead and need to consider mothers day and Easter school holidays.
Booked Sunday lunch at a local pub for mothers day, I also need to send a sponsor to a friend who is doing the three peaks before me, so will sort this on payday.
Bank account stands at a rather miserable - £3.79!
That's it another busy day at work tomorrow and suspect I will have to do some over the weekend too to catch up.
