Time to Face The Music

Our dog is always digging holes in the garden, she's a Jack Russell and they like to dig. She also likes to sit in newly planted pots!

A new TV will be great. We got a 50" smart TV a couple of years ago and it's brilliant, ours is LG.

It must be a Jack Russell thing as ours likes sitting in plant pots too. It was the border Collie that eats mud and the staff X just likes nibbling on the plants. All in all the dogs are not helpful in the garden.

New TV ordered and that will be delivered on Friday. That became an expensive afternoon. It was nice to have the money there to pay for a large item though, made a change from just sticking it on the credit card and worrying about it later

It felt good actually.

You will be on to the next stage before you know it - the one where you have money in your account and don't actually want to spend it
You certainly don't waste time when you decide to do something, or has OH been researching TVs for months?
We need to buy a new full height integrated fridge - the right size and type have been out of stock for a while but back in now. Its a really annoying spend as its just a boring like for like item. A TV is much more fun.

He has been researching what he wants for months since it became clear we would be getting the holiday refund.

He will hopefully stop talking about it now and have it set up on Friday ready for when I finish work 😀

Will be sticking our current one on Ebay on Saturday. Should get a few quid back for it.

Unsurprisingly, OH would be very interested in buying a new TV, not so much in the new fridge.

Hoping for a no spends day today. It has been a spendy week so far!!

Breakfast, lunch and dinner will be from stores. Breakfast was crumpets, lunch will be pizza and dinner tonight is steak with chips, onions rings, corn on the cob, garlic mushrooms and grilled tomatoes.

Today's jobs include:

• working from home
• vacuuming the house
• dusting the house
• load of washing
• walking the dog

The other half is pottering around in the garden again. Think he is treating the fence today.
