  • £6.94 contents insurance, £7 knitting pattern, £8 talk, £8 stitch markers, £3 postage as I sold some wool. £5 in minus fees.

    I bought two coffees yesterday as we were short so I didn’t get lunch, just a bag of crisps at my desk.

    Just seen a big spider! It did make me jump.

    My friend is still very sick. He wouldn’t countenance the crisis team, he said they’re not very good and would only section him. I’m going to see him at the weekend hopefully.

    I went to the cinema after work but it was getting really busy so I left. I’ll catch the film some time.

  • Have completely lost track of my spending the last few days. Gonna have to try and get a 0% credit card to shift some of the stubborn debt.

    Today. £6.70 breakfast. £15 lip wax. £15 Oxfam books. £50 Superdrug including a gift. They didn’t take the member offers off with my discount card, not quite sure what’s going on there.

    £50 in as I sold some wool.

  • Just chilling with a coffee. I need to post the wool today. Luckily I know a post office that is open Sunday mornings. I also feel better now I've decluttered a bit. Might go for a swim this morning. It smells like rain but I haven't opened the curtains yet. A swim is £6.20. The postage will be £9.60 but they paid for it separately. I also need to buy oat milk on my Asda card. £2. They put sweeteners in oat milk and now I can't go back to real milk. Maybe I'll treat myself to some goat milk if they have it.
