    Well I’m afraid today was a bit spendy. It could have been worse cos we looked round a garden centres Xmas decorations and there were loads I would have liked but I didn’t. I treated myself to a new artificial tree (not cheap)  a couple of months ago so that’s well over my Xmas decoration budget.
    But we did succumb to brunch and cherry and almond scones for afters tonight. 
    But it was lovely and as we are both at home all the time at the moment it made a change. Since my operation I can count the amount of times I’ve left the house in single figures (which means I’m not spending much)
    So while I’m having a spendy day I’m going to order a jumper and a couple of Xmas presents.
