Can anyone recommend any savings accounts? I am looking for at least 5% interest.

Sorted out a savings account. It is above my mortgage interest, which is exactly what I wanted.
Started back at job 2 today so that will be pay next week.
Managed two lots of washing today as it was dry.
DD had her first day back and it wasn't as smooth as I would have hoped. All clubs back this week as well, which will mean a few nights where she has a sleep. She will be exhausted by the end of the week.
Blinds for upstairs ordered. Furniture for the shed also ordered. A plan for some things has been set in motion.
Holiday booked but DD doesn't know about it yet. It is a weekend away just before Christmas. A long way off but booked.
The next half term is another load of work being done on the house. That will be everything for the house.

I know. It books up fast so wanted to secure it. We have been before and DD loves it, so I know she will be fine.

Good to have something to look forward to.

Really exhausting first week back at all jobs and I still have work in the morning. I also have a balloon order tomorrow too.
I have made some bouquets as well this week.
Absolutely love working with balloons and flowers.
I am hopeful that on pay day, I will have the month excess that I need. Hoping that there are no other unexpected costs.
Have a lovely evening x

They are lovely. A lady not far from me started doing similar as a hobby, has become so successful that she has now turned it into her full time job.

What a really busy week.
Thankfully I have a day off next week and waiting for deliveries so I can not do much.
DD won't be at her dad's this weekend so I don't have my tomorrow to catch up.
I have lots of organising to do in the house. This will start this weekend with under the fire storage that has just been created and then next weekend the shed furniture will have arrived and be built so tons of storage in there for all my crafting things. That will then free up so much house space.
Money is fine. Hoping getting the extra month set up will work. Only time will tell.
Some cashback has been returned to me. £75 paid into my account yesterday. Might treat myself today to some chocolate and treats. Only around £20.
I have two orders coming up. One is a wedding hamper, the other is a birthday balloon. I did yesterday's order and personalised it. This was an additional thing for me to learn and get through.
I am going shopping this morning, DD has her club and then I can sort things out.
Hope everyone else has a lovely day x

It will be brilliant to have a dedicated space for crafting. You’re doing really well getting stuff done to the house.
