Yesterday I did lots of admin , booked car parking for my Feb holiday . Looking to book a hotel today to break up the journey south in April for a friends birthday. Finally managed to get my money transferred to a fix saver after it matured in December have moved it to a new provider. Put some more money in PBs as well. 

I didn't go out yesterday and probably the same today , being on leave I am usually here, there and everywhere but the weather put paid to that. We have had more snow overnight , so it's all white again here. 

Going to do my housework today , as have lots happening the end of the week.

We’ve had more snow overnight than when we had the weather warnings a few days ago.
Enjoy not having to dash about.

Fed up of this cold weather now and de icing the car. 

Been to the dentist today all good there , thank goodness. Put my claim in for money back. 

Called at parents to make sure they were still ok which they were. Dragged all the bins up the driveway for tomorrow for them. I have called in on my elderly neighbours to make sure they are all ok as well. 

Tomorrow is the hairdressers and meeting a friend at the big shopping centre . 

I dread my energy bill after this week 🤷🏻‍♀️.

I've stopped looking at my smart meter as the daily cost is scary!

Another day more snow only a small amount. 

Checked in for my February holiday, looking forward to being a bit warmer for a few days. Going to hairdressers later this morning , was meeting my friend but she doesn't drive in wintry conditions. I will call at my local  B@M as looking for some new storage for my bedroom. Though in Foxgloves style I may shop from home not mine but my sons as he is moving and has some storage he is getting rid off . 

All banking checked , looks as though I may have a tiny surplus in the shopping budget which is welcome.

Where are you off to next month, Canaries? We used to go to the Canaries the first two weeks of January. It's lovely to get some winter sun but we found it really difficult to come back to winter so changed to the end of April

Can’t believe we’re half way through January already. February won’t be long ☀️

Going to Costa del Sol SA, won't be as warm as Canaries.

Last week I was suffering with toothache which made functioning normally quite hard. Anyway the dentist gave me antibiotics and I feel fairly normal now ! .
Good news this week , my gas smart meter was replaced finally. This one is working well so far which is good. Octopus have also compensated me financially. I will say I am glad I decided not to accept their first answer and pursued the issue further.
As I have never had two smart meters working , do people put in reading once a month or not bother? . 

Payday last Friday , underspends in groceries and personal spending. Have set up another monthly savings as the Principality one has finished . 

I am on a no spend January , no clothes, books or other frivolities . It's going well so far .

i have a holiday coming up in a few weeks, paid for car parking at the airport , spends I already have. 

Paid a deposit for my craft break in October and for a couple of hotels in April when I travel south for a friend's big birthday. 

We have a new computer system at work tomorrow, I hope all the training comes to me . 

Off to make food for work tomorrow.

We’ve been to Costa del Sol in February and it was warm in the sun but very cool at night. It will be lovely to get away from the cold miserable weather here.
