It will be a no spends day today.
Breakfast, lunch and dinner will be from stores. Breakfast was toast, we have both taken our packed lunches to work and dinner tonight is pizza and a few beers on the sofa watching a film.
We got the house cleaned yesterday so that we don't have much to do when we get home tonight. The only thing I will have to sort out is a load of washing that I have put in. It will be dry so I just need to fold it and put it away.
Looking forward to another weekend at home this weekend. It shouldn't be quite such a busy weekend though. We might have some time left to just chill out.2 -
The heating has come on tonight. It must be cold 😲2

Quiet weekend for us this weekend after a busy one last weekend full of birthdays. The thought of nothing planned the next couple of days is bliss. Heating on here for a bit as well.x:j Debtfree and and staying that way.:j3-6 month emergency fund, No.61 £140.002

It won't be a no spends day today. We are getting the tyres fitted this morning, they are already paid for, and then we are going to have a run to Knaresborough for the afternoon.
Breakfast is crumpets but we will grab some lunch while we are out and dinner tonight is a takeaway curry or Chinese. Not decided which yet.2 -
Have a good day RS - yes, new tyres are always a bit spendy aren’t they - mine needs two new on the front at some stage before too long.🎉 MORTGAGE FREE (First time!) 30/09/2016 🎉 And now we go again…New mortgage taken 01/09/23 🏡

We had a lovely day in Knaresborough. The weather was just right for a long walk.
We have just got back home now. Just put the bedding in the wash. The dog has gone straight to bed he is shattered, so time for a beer for us now I think.3 -
