I had a good nights sleep last night, so feeling better today. The kids are bickering and fighting though!
We are off out in a bit for little miss's vaccine, so I shall take them somewhere to let off some steam. I might pop to Mr L/Mr T and a garden centre too while we are out.
Have a good day everyone"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". Eoin McGee3 -

We are back now. It's turned lovely and warm and sunny!
I got a fab veg box in Lidl for £1.50 - 2 leeks, pile of carrots, savoy and white cabbage, iceberg and little gem lettuces, bag of lemons, an orange, a large punnet of cherry tomatoes, some tenderstem broccoli. I'm so chuffed!
I then went to the garden centre and got some fab reduced plants too - a big daisy bush for £4, and a small houseplant in a pot for £1. I bought another daisy type plant for full price and a venus fly trap which is a gift. I also bought some wildflower seeds online, and they have arrived, so I will try and plant them this week.
Hope everyone is having a good day"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". Eoin McGee1
