    The totals are looking fantastic 👍
    You're almost at your DEBT minus SAVINGS (aka 'what you owe the world') being less than £10K!  Brilliant!
    It does feel like we are finally getting somewhere and can see the end in sight.

    Been a long time coming to get this far.

    Midweek already, another week is flying by.

    Breakfast, lunch and dinner are from stores today. Breakfast was cereals, we have both taken our packed lunches to work and dinner tonight is harissa chicken with lime and coriander rice and vegetables.

    Tonight's jobs are:
    • walking the dog
    • cleaning the kitchen
    • weigh in Wednesday 
    The dog has a dodgy stomach at the minute. Poor dog has the runs. We have not seen him eat anything he shouldn't have and he has not been given anything he doesn't normally have so can only assume he has snaffled something when we have not been looking or he has stuck his nose into something disgusting. He got us up at 4am this morning to be let out, at least he got us up!

    He seems to be fine in himself and is still wanting to eat so we are not too worried about him.

    I have somehow lost 3 and a half pounds this week! 

    Seems the secret must be drinking too much, eating street food, dancing like an idiot and walking miles and miles on a runway 🤣🤣🤣

    Thursday already.

    Breakfast, lunch and dinner are from stores tonight. Breakfast was toast, we have both taken our packed lunches to work and dinner tonight is pork loin, chips and vegetables.

    Tonight's jobs are:
    • walking the dog
    • cleaning the bathrooms
    • vacuuming the house
    • home shopping delivery
    We have a family BBQ at our house this weekend. Got the meat out of the freezer last night and the fridge is now a bit full. Not go loads of room left in there for drinks!

    In other news the dog is better now which is a relief. Don't like it when he is ill.

    We usually have a family BBQ at ours over the summer holidays. Got a few more coming round than normal this year and the other half's brother and partner staying over for the night.

    Definitely won't be a quiet weekend again!
