    Thanks @Hettyhound @Humdinger1 @beanielou @South_coast @carboot_karaoke

    I’m trying to appreciate the low balance but I’m also getting impatient again too. I’ve itchy fingers to cut more off. I think it must just be my mood though so I’ve tried to channel the energy into getting other things off the list and into the diary:

    3 blood tests, 1 shingles vaccine, 1 GP and 1 hospital appointment, 2 days of Easter activities for DS9 to avoid more fighting with DD4.

    In MSE news though, payday is Friday, small amount left and minimal expenses expected (though probably jinxed it now!)

    I’m up to £638 already this year from surveys and couple of Vinted items. Long may it continue. I have it in a separate account to hopefully pay for the bigger bills like MOT and insurances when they inevitably come.

    Hopefully it’ll be a restful day ahead for all.
