Walking to work this morning, been so much better at this recently although much easier to motivate myself when the weather is nice.

Oops haven't posted for a while again but nothing major to report.
We were away for 4 nights last week visiting family which was lovely but a bit stressful coming back with the boats. We made it back ok but rather later than originally planned.
Bit of a spendy day today as paid for the car tax which was £275 but paid for from the car fund.
Also got my home insurance renewal quote through (£338.44) so had a look round and got it for £163.55 😀 plus went through TCB so should get £36 back at some point. Didn't have enough in the home fund to pay it all (have been paying monthly for home insurance up until now) so put it on the credit card, have paid the £63.55 off already and will pay an extra £100 to the credit card once I get paid.
Cashed out £6.12 from PA and added it to the roof debt savings. Have got around £12 waiting for approval as well so hopefully that will be available to cash out soon.

A NSD today as at work on double shift.
£7.19 cashed out from PA and sent to the roof debt savings 🙂
£25 cashback from TCB (from the savings account I opened at the end of last year) cashed out so just waiting for it to hit p@yp@l and then it will go to the roof debt savings as well.

Day off yesterday so popped to the allotment in the morning but not for long as it started raining. Spent the rest of the day in the house - did some cleaning, baked peanut butter cookies and watched some films with OH. It was a NSD.
Today should also be a day off but I'm popping into work for a few hours. It's for an activity though so should be fun overtime. It's a beautiful day here so after I finish, we might head to the allotment or go for a nice walk. Need to get a food shop at some point and OH was also talking about going to beeandq to get some stuff so definitely won't be a NSD today.

Spent £4 on a coffee and doughnut while out with work and then food shopping was £38.47.
We opted to go for a walk instead of the allotment although it definitely had gotten cooler as the day went on.Mortgage 26.4.25 - £108,500 1.4.26 - £103,723.68 (4.4% paid)

Today has been another NSD - work was busy and glad I took my car as ended up having to go out 3 times for various things. Finished on time though and went for a (very slow!) run after work.
Have done a few surveys this evening so just now waiting for it to be available to cash out.

Tuesday was a NSD and yesterday would have been but I decided to take advantage of an offer in Martin's email so £4.95 spent. I think I will use the toiletries but if not, they can go towards someone's birthday/Christmas gift.
Today won't be a NSD either as need a wee top-up of fruit and veg.
