WinterWarrior said:@CRANKY40 one of mine used to like raw bacon and raw mince … I miss her.I have spent money today… on a wonderful purple planner by clever fox. It’s so pretty and it has stickers!It should arrive on Tuesday. I should really have Monday right through to Friday as no spend days now!
I know I keep saying it, but I’ve had a terrible month for spending, I will turn over a new leaf for the last 2 weeks, please do tell me off if I spend anything else this week…please!"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do".

What do you put in a planner though?

Just googled the planner & I want one too! You are such a bad influence 😂1

Now we all want to know what you plan to put on your planner 😆I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)2

Bad influence is my middle name, along with easily led and no willpower….I have a long name 😁
The planner has lots of options, I will use it like a bullet journal/diary. When I do a diary I have a habit of drawing silly things I’ve seen (once I saw balloons stuck in a tree when I was walking hound. It was so random and spooky, like Pennywise had popped up in the village, so I did a sketch alongside my ramblings 😁), that sort of thing. Lots of coloured pens and fun things, along with a lot of letting off steam I could never do in real life. They can be whatever you want them to be, that’s the joy of them ⭐️Not all who wander are lost - J.R.R.Tolkien

Good morning and happy Monday ☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️What a very short weekend! I did some cutting out and a touch of sewing yesterday…I sewed 6 bits together incorrectly, so now have some unpicking to look forward to! I put it away after that 😖
No spends planned for the rest of my life…and at least the rest of this week. Naughty ‘old me’ has made sure I have presents coming in the post today, tomorrow and Wednesday, so that’s something to look forward to 🤣
I hope you all have marvellous Monday’s, that your work goes swiftly and you have nice things to look forward to 🧁🍰🍫☕️📚🌸Not all who wander are lost - J.R.R.Tolkien
