I seem to be neglecting my poor diary as I popped my head over to @WinterWarrior s and I have quite a bit of catching up to do.
I have discovered that she may be a bad influence on me as we share alot of traits and not the good ones I share with @Naomim 🤣
For now I am ignoring the bad influences and gave gone with a good one which was to move £200 of the EF to premium bonds. I have started these a few times and always had to withdraw but now we have some cash in the SF's I feel it's time to try again.
In other mse news we spent zilch yesterday so nothing to Tilly Tidy but I'll take the NSD. Today we need a few bits of salad but that will involve getting dressed and dare I say washed 😱 last day off work so I'm enjoying being a slob.
I may venture to the shower in an hour or so but once I'm dressed it means no more slobbing at getting on with the mundane pre work jobs like ironing 🤬Dedicated Debt Free Wanabee 🤓

I do love the premium bonds. I'm also back to work tomorrow but am still slobbing in my pj's. I actually have a desk to build as the family are fed up of me being spread out on the dining table. Thinking I might take myself off to watch the new West Side Story this afternoon as MrM is taking 12yo to watch a football match.Credit Cards NOV 2019 £33,220.42 Sept 2023 £19,951.00 Tilly Tidy 20223/COLOR] Sept £43.71 Here's my diary: A Ditherer's Diary Again0

Ooh I haven't been to the theatre in years. Mr M_F wasn't that keen when I dragged him along and we don't spend alot on activities we both don't enjoy as we are debt busting. He would come along but I'd rather do things we both enjoy while money's tight.

Oh dear, it’s hard when I’m being labelled a bad influence on other peoples diaries 😬 oops!I haven’t ever taken anything out of the pb’s, so hopefully Not knowing how easy or hard it is will put me off. Ideally I’d like to win something, but nothing yet! Mr Lewis says £4K is the sweet spot.Not all who wander are lost - J.R.R.Tolkien

4K! Blooming ek that I won't be hitting that sweet spot anytime soon later or in the far distant future 🤣🤣🤣
Take the bad influence as a compliment @WinterWarrior I would if ever I was accused of such a thing 😇Dedicated Debt Free Wanabee 🤓

I did get washed and dressed eventually and after a very nice Mse non spendy but rather greedy lunch of turkey and salad bagels grapes Madeline and crisps (in that order) we are off to Mr S to get some supplies. Salad, jackets (Mr S Vivaldi finest best of whatever truly are the nicest jackets ever) cat wet food and Mr M_F some bananas before the world ends. We have grapes and apples at home but if he doesn't get his daily banana for his work lunch he thinks he's hard done by 🙀
Tonight's dinner is fish pie. Middle was cooked last week just needs mash potato topping and veg.
Then home for a spot of ironing 😠Dedicated Debt Free Wanabee 🤓

Apparently you have more of a chance of winning a very small win with £4K invested and that small win would beat yearly bank interest, so that’s what I’m aiming for.
I get wet cat food when it’s on offer from Amzn in bulk or from Zooplus, depending which is cheaper. They have expensive tastes 😖Not all who wander are lost - J.R.R.Tolkien
