I'm feeling better today thankfully. Yesterday I think I felt grotty due to lack of sleep more than anything else.
Good news to wake up to that I won £25 on PBs! I'll PAD that when it arrives.
Not much planned for this weekend. DH wants to go out, but I want to get on at home. I want to finish cleaning/decluttering the kitchen ahead of the plumber this week. I also want to get on with painting the small room. Conversely it will do us good to get some fresh air! We'll see. Maybe we could go out for a bit rather than the whole day.
Have a good one everyone

You used to have to have a licence from the council to sell ice cream. It was a bit pointless as it was just a form and no inspection. I dont know if its still the same.Ice cream is fine as long as there is no melting and then re freezing - it doesnt actually go off.3

DH took little jwil out on his bike this morning. Little miss didn't want to go so we stayed home. I've achieved nothing so far. I've completely lost my mojo! I can't be bothered. Hopefully it will return tomorrow!"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

Good for you £25. Is that on a big holding. Changing mine over but keeping a little bit in PBs for the niceness of little wins If you have built castles in the air, your work should not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them

I'm not sure my mojo is back, but I'm determined to make an effort today. I'm hoping to have a first coat done in the bedroom this morning, then we'll go out and let the kids choose the colours they want.
I've made a start on tidying the kitchen ahead of the plumber so will finish that this afternoon.
Admin done this morning, and booked kids lunches for next half term. Little jwil has decided he wants school lunches two days rather than taking a packed lunch. I'm pleased as it means he has a bit more variety, and also it makes it easier on a Friday when we are going swimming."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".
