Good Morning and happy Sunday ⭐️🌸🌺
Today is the commencement of my £50 per week spend challenge. I must do this to pull back this months silly spends and get back on track. Today and tomorrow should be relatively easy as I don’t get paid until Tuesday! I have added it to my signature to keep track.
Today is dogs happy day of a drive out, then Tesco delivery and not much else! I may try some quilting if my shoulder can take it. And reading of course, but I’m on the last of the first set of 3 Sharpes, so getting to the end will mean a tenner for the next set. I could just reread the falling apart paper copies, but I’m aiming to replace them.We watched Wonderwoman 1984 last night. As a child of the 80’s I was loving the fashion 😁I hope you all have wonderful Sundays full of all good things ☕️🍫📚Not all who wander are lost - J.R.R.Tolkien

Good morning, happy dog drive. I’ve just done my money forecasting and adjusted my online pots a bit. Loads of washing out as it’s, just for a change, windy here on the coast. Tottered round the block without my stick for the first time, six weeks post op.
first of the many ordered library books trickling into library. I order them in my husbands name as he’s registered disabled so I don’t have to pay order fee. This is money saving right? I couldn’t afford the amount of books I read, either in money or space. ( how I lust after a library, a pantry, a boot room ......)Carolbee3 -
Good morning. I take the HT out for drives the same as you take your dog 😊 Walking too far hurts him but he does like a nice drive. Are you still going to keep us in the loop about what you spend your £50 on? My weekly spend for myself this month is £0 but I'll live. I can't think of anything that I need just now (other than a lottery win) so not a problem. The groceries (including the cat fud) are budgeted for separately and I have plenty of reading material.3
