Back to work now. It's chucking it down and blowing a gale outside, hope it eases off by school time.
Most of the DDs have come out now, it's seemed a long time between payday and today with the bank holidays. I never feel right until they've been paid
I'm at my desk now, and there's a huge gap behind me where the bulky items were stored. It's so nice having the space, and no more squeezing past. Small things!
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 McGee4 -

I’m just the same, I heaved a big sigh of relief when the big direct debits went out this morning. They feel like a debt until they are paid each month.Not all who wander are lost - J.R.R.Tolkien
