Morning all
((Hugs)) HK, take care
Today's list:
HG raspberries for breakfast

Sort out what we need to take with us tomorrow for our overnighter, and make sure the stuff in the van is all up together.
Sort out cutlery drawer, bit the bullet and bought new cutlery to replace the raggle taggle mixture we have. I will sell most of the existing stuff to recoup the outlay

List the dress on ebay that I didn't get to yesterday
Walk to surgery and collect my prescription later
Water anything in the garden that needs it
Make a frittata for dinner tonight, and to take with us for lunch tomorrow
Try not to eat too much cake! I made Nigella's chocolate sheet cake yesterday night, and OMG! https://www.nigella.com/recipes/chocolate-sheet-cake if you are interested, it is quite a cheap cake as it uses cocoa powder instead of actual chocolate, and bakes in only 20mins

Hi all! I'm new to this site.

Things I've done this week

Got paid -> put £500 towards debt (just £1,500 left!)
Stayed home for dinner all week
Packed lunches 4/5 days this week
3 no spend days
Further investigated matched betting -> not quite ready to start due to limited extra cash to invest
Got my work pension invested properly in higher risk funds to maximise growth

Yet to do
Plan the remaining £1,500 debt repayment schedule
Plan how I'm getting out of my overdraft (£1,600 in debt there, 0% interest)
Plan packed lunches for next week
Find the money for my mum's birthday dinner in a fortnight
Demotivate myself from spending money on "just-because" gifts for friends

Morning all :hello:

Wow, that felt like a long 4 days. Glad that it's Saturday and we don't have plans :rotfl: things to do today:

Washing overnight pegged out
Another load on and out
Small shop at butchers
Decluttering another space
Was trying to make strawberry leather overnight in the oven, but it's still not done, will leave another hour and if not freeze in small batches to be added to smoothies/porridge it's only stewed strawberry and apple.
Do something later may go to a NT property with our membership
Run. Must do this.
Pick more fruit
Make some biscuits

Have a good day all. Purps.

Going to a hen night or should it be a hen day as it starts with lunch at 2,00 pm. I'll be leaving as soon as is deemed respectable after the meal. I'm not really comfortable at gatherings.

Not a lot of time to do much today.

Check bank accounts (don't think there will be any odd pennies)
Tend to plants
Write card and give to bride's mum. I can't go to the wedding because we're on holiday. We're giving them some euros to do something special on their honeymoon. It's difficult to buy wedding presents these days as so many people set up home together before getting married and have all the normal things already. I'm sure this will be an acceptable alternative.
Marinade beef in goulash spices overnight for tomorrow's dinner.

Enjoy the weekend.
