    Ah but since then everything has gone to pot.
    Today I have had sandwiches, shortbread, & cheesecake.
    My mum tells me I need to loose weight & then brings all sorts of goodies.

    Good morning and happy Wednesday ☔️
    yesterday I paid the large garage door bill…I was very sad to see the money leave, but how lovely to pay in cash (well transfer, but you know what I mean). There is just the roof to pay for and then I’ll be back to looking a bit sad. My next goal is to refill this easily accessed savings/emergency pot back up while still paying for the decorating as I go along. It’s nice to have a plan.
    I spent £5 today for my first ever m00npig card order…I’m very late to the party. I found out someone’s birthday was today, so it was the quickest way.
    The office door painting is taking some time…3 coats so far and I think I need another. This will be a very slow room refurbishment at this rate. 
    Other than that it’s just work today, nothing exciting.
    I hope you all have a great day 🌟

  • I've finally caught up and may I say, though it might not seem like it, from my perspective having crammed a lot of your recent life into one go, you've actually done really, really well with weight loss and money saving. Obviously we all have areas in which we could improve but you're doing great. Sorry if I've missed it or forgotten, but do you have specific money saving goals? Other than allocating the income from becoming an inst*gram influencer with your rustic roof interior, obviously
