Morning all, yep finally made it to half-term
This week has been busy, I've been helping one of my families, they were in a mess so lots of us from school have helped with carpets / curtains / bedding etc and we have spent most evenings cleaning / clearing their flat. Huge progress has been made, and hopefully now the relevant agencies will step in and help them.
I also finally had the boiler done this week, so today I need to pay the bill for that, but it is sooo nice to have heating that comes on before I get up in the morning and to have hot water whenever I want it
So, this week I have no plans whatsoever other than to do my walking. Today I intend to chill and watch my footie, and maybe spend some time on surveys or other finances bits. Ds is at work all day today so I can just please myself a bit. I have been food shopping this morning, managed to just spend £37 this week, the cupboards and freezer are still fairly full, it was mainly fridge stuff.

Happy Valentines one and all
I decided today that as no-one else loves me I'll spoil myself instead, so I have done a 6 mile walk down the beach, followed by a hot shower and a bacon sandwich. The rest of the day will be spent mooching and watching football.
