    Morning moneysavers,

    I have not been on as much as there has been so much going on with my Dad and then my husband had a car accident so that's all needed sorting (can't remember if I mentioned the accident previously) 

    I have got another 2 NSDs though and one today :)

    Transferred a small amount of money into savings 😁

    Used a voucher yesterday that I won in a raffle to get my husband a free hair  cut💇‍♂️ 

    Doing my best in a difficult time

    5/15 an unexpected one today, I have spent money but I am expecting it all back. Also I have been treated for a meal out and ice cream sundae at hotel chocolat.A Very nice man that is lodging at MDs has treated me today and kept me company. I don't know whether I should let a man take me out for a meal. He said it was thank you for the hair cut, my mum said it was a very expensive hair cut. I picked him up, took him to get a hair cut and waited for him, then he got a meal and then I took him back to MDs before driving home. That does seem like one good gesture for another doesn't it? He is about the only man who has showed any interest in me lately, but I have not much clue about him. I guess I should take it slow. He comes across a bit naughty in some respects, He actually asked for a girls number while I was with him, I guess it feels better knowing it is not a proper date just friendly. I have gone from zero social life to 100% social life - not quite but still, sorry for my ramblingsX
