    Not much news to report, still no lodger and nothing new on the job front. Hospital appointment went okay yesterday, also old lodger leaving went okay, he left a little note and a couple of his possessions, so I am expecting to see him again, but maybe not? he said he lost his mobile while riding his bike, I emailed him about his possessions we will see. His room smells a bit I have ousted it, and will smell again tomorrow. I am hoping I can get the smell out before the next potential lodger visit.

    I spent 32.90 last week on two lunches and some junk food to stuff myself with, well today I have bought some groceries spending £51.50 and of that £21.10 on 5 lunches, I have had one of the lunches today rather then save for the week and boy was it good, I really enjoyed it, I will defo be having again! XL wrap, Falafel and houmous and cabbage (plus kit kat and yoghurt). Did you know a cup of cabbage has half your Vitamin K needs? I am becoming healthy, well maybe not quite yet, but this wrap has put me ahead!! 😁😁😁

    November has seen me Spend, Spend, Spend! I need to get myself into a better position with money, there are some times where I do well and other times where I cannot remain controlled, but not having a regular routine or structure does not help. So my goals are the same get a perm job, get a lodger and curb spending.

    I do think that the falafel wraps however silly it sounds was exactly what I am after healthy, nutritious, better on the wallet and has maximum pleasure value. If you are going to eat right eat to enjoy. Also I have just looked up a recipe and I think it will be much cheaper again to make them! I have made my own recipe from the internet version and I am going to give it a go next week - Yippee!

    Today is a semi lazy day, I am doing the odd chore mixed in with relaxing and gearing myself up for tomorrow. Nothing too strenous I am still a bit tired from the anaesthetic don't worry only local, still it had its effect.

    Have a good day allXX

    Today has been another action packed day at the office, still plenty to do for the time being, I also have some news I have been put forward for a hybrid role 30 min drive, full finance function plus office admin/ managment. There will be a team of 7 males, very testosteroney! The role sounds positive, I have asked to be put forward at 30K and why not?! Huh!?

    I have spent, spent, spent again I do seem to be taming myself though, so hopefully I can control this need to spend. I think I will review finances next and see what is happening...countdown to Christmas has started yay! And all presents purchased. Yay! Just the food to go! Which I need to cut down some.
