  • OMG the Chinese last night was sooo good but the prices are definitely getting a lot more expensive so it’ll not be something we do often.

    Made my PAD of £1 to CC7 today and I’m off shopping with my sister… going out at last!  I will gladly sacrifice a NSD to be able to go out 😂

    Hope everyone has a good Saturday

  • Thanks! Had a good mooch around and used a gift card I had so only spent 60p on the items I bought 😂😂

    In other news, I managed to cash out £5 from Prolific so I’ve sent that to CC7

  • Hi all 

    Late update from me today, I have been busy around the house but I'm not sure whether the virus is lingering as I am getting tired really quickly when I try and do things.  Whatever it is, it's annoying! 

    Made by £1 PAD to CC7 this morning and was able to colour in another square from my CC debt chart.  Today is a NSD and tomorrow should be too. I've hit my September target of 13 NSD's already so it will be interesting to see how many I can get this month.  :)

    I have some real cash money change in my purse and will add this to the sealed pot tomorrow, It's currently in my handbag in the hallway and I am 2 flights of stairs away.  Promise it's not laziness, it's exhaustion :( 

    That's it from me today, I'm going to read my book for a while and then later I will muster the energy to prepare a roast chicken dinner which I am looking forward to

  • We were both tired for a couple of weeks after we tested negative again from Covid.

    Take it easy and listen to your body. If you are tired take a break.
  • Hello all. Still lacking energy and I have mainly watched the state funeral today. Hubby keeps reminding me to take it easy so now I’m going to try and finish my book until he comes back from work and I prep dinner. Just some burgers tonight so that’s easy enough.

    PAD today was £4.82, made up of the usual £1 to CC7 and £3.82 in change to the sealed pot. It’s definitely a NSD again as there’s nowhere open and I’ve not been anywhere.

    Nothing else to report from me. I’m a bit emotionally drained to be honest. Might have to watch some comedy tonight!

  • Hi everyone, short weeks always end up with me being confused and I struggle to remember what day it is.  However I am not complaining that I'me one step closer to Friday than usual!  I have a lot of meeting scheduled this week and I'm in the office tomorrow so I actually think this week will whizz by. 

    My usual PAD of £1 has been sent to CC7 and today will be another NSD.  I have no plans to go anywhere and this lack of energy means I would rather stay close to home when I can as I am still getting some dizzy spells. 

    I didn't get as much housework as I wanted done this weekend so I'm going to try and get a bit extra done each day and do it a bit at a time rather than all at once.  Hubby keeps telling me off for doing too much. 

    Right, off to get ready for a day of meetings

  • Just cashed a £10 Amazon voucher out from receipt snapping. So I’ve sent £10 to CC7 from the bank.
