  • Thanks AC and DIA x
  • Morning,

    So this happened........We spoke to the dealership yesterday and we traded both cars in and bought a newish one.  It needed doing and I'm glad that DH bit the bullet, as previously he'd just leave it and leave it.  It'll be ready to collect either tomorrow or Wednesday :)  DH is going to ring the insurers today.

    The bad side is that we had to put a £1K deposit down, I'm just going to add that to the final total of everything in a few weeks.

    The bloke for the bathroom is coming over tomorrow evening, we are then going to apply for the loan (fingers crossed it goes through!)

    DD is home working again this week, we got notified that one of the staff members had tested positive over the weekend.  DD had a lesson with her on Friday.  DD is very pee'd off :(

    I need to re-do the budget for July, June was bad as we ended up in the OD :(

    My end of June goals for the week - 

    Aim for 4 AFD's
    Read my book
    Do one thing a day that's money saving
    Surveys

    I am taking Vitamin B tablets again, as they seem low, I started on Saturday and already feel the difference.

    I did my Pilates class on Saturday and am going to alternate each week, this Saturday I'm doing Yoga.

    Congrats on the new car.  Fingers crossed for the bathroom loan.

    Hope DD is ok and doesn't get it.

  • LMD - The Padding sounds interesting, I’m going to have a look in to that and once we have a final total, I may start doing that.
