Good morning and happy Friday 📚🍫☕️No April fools from me, no one would believe me 🤣
Today would have been my good friends birthday ☹️ I think she would have been 50, but my brain isn’t working this morning. I think it’s 32 years now, such a long time 😢
I did spending yesterday, but 3 birthday presents and 2 still to go towards the end of the month. One of the presents was so nice that I got one too (I know, I know).
work today and then two glorious days off.
I’m also amazed at @nannygladys self control. The minute I’m awake I’m in the banking….I’m so glad it’s not the olden days when you had to guess before getting a balance from the cash machine 😁
I hope you all have a fabulous Friday ☕️📚🍫🧁Not all who wander are lost - J.R.R.Tolkien

Good morning and happy Saturday ☕️📚🍫🧁
No work 🎉
I need to put some washing in, entertain dog and try not to eat the house. I may make some scones or sausage rolls, or both, later 😁 Definitely no spending! I bought the goodies for April yesterday, so we should be fully stocked when they come. MrWW’s favourites and some milky bars for me 😋
I would like to get through the month spending no more than £100 on unallocated stuff, but it will be a challenge. I really want a mini quilting iron and pad, so I can iron blocks without getting the big iron and board set up….plus ‘mouses iron’ 🐭 🐁🥰
I hope you all have wonderful Saturdays, do let me know what you are up to ☕️📚🍫🧁Not all who wander are lost - J.R.R.Tolkien

Morning WW. We have sausage rolls for lunch. We buy the frozen Gregg's ones from Iceland. I have baked them already as off to the hairdresser's them shopping.
We need the rest of the food shop from Lidl and we are going to Hobbycraft and the range for art supplies for Mr M_F. Those mini quilting irons are cute.Dedicated Debt Free Wanabee 🤓

Oooh @moving_forward be careful in Hobbycraft 😬
I am defrosting ready roll puff pastry and Christmas sausages for mine. The pastry was half of a 2 pack and had come open, so I’m hoping it will be ok!Not all who wander are lost - J.R.R.Tolkien

I’m going to christen my recently acquired bus pass and go to another seaside town. It’s bright and at least the wind has died down a bit at last!
have a good weekend everyoneCarolbee2 -
Look at that @carolbee showing off she is withing easy access of seaside's 🤬
Lucky lucky you 😁
Hair had been cut and straightened despite me suggesting she save the leccy and leave it kinky. We are now on route for fuel before hands in pockets for hobbycrafting and the range. Actually I shall be making a purchase but out of joint money as Mr M_F's work colleague is pregnant and I am going to knit a baby blanket.
I used to make my own sausage rolls with ready made pastry but decided it's a faff.Dedicated Debt Free Wanabee 🤓
