    NSD for yesterday please CB and 1 for today , too!

    I did pick up some milk in Lidl yesterday but that will come from groceries budget.

    We went to a family gathering yesterday but left before they all ordered take out as its out of our budget this month and it was getting quite late. 

    Hope you all have a lovely Sunday 😍

    Day 4: off to work later so only spends will be on a snack from the snack budget. Much safer to keep the snacks outside the house, I'm sure some will know what I mean. ;)
