Should itsthelittlethings spend less on coffee?

Started my £90 today. Spent £17 on dinner and £2 on a bus ticket home. Spent about £10 on drinks and snacks while out and about this afternoon with friends (not counting that). Yet more proof that I spend when I have my wallet.

£70 left.

Got hummus and tiger bread (my current bread favourite) in Tescos.

£3.45 film.

I need to post something I have sold today. I have made £4 from it. It took me a little bit of time to package it but I enjoyed doing that. Then I have to cycle to the post office (about half an hour). That’s £8 per hour. Not bad.

£66.45 left.

Probably actually 3/4 hour to the post office and back.

Half an hour to the post office and back. Postage was a bit more than I had allowed plus I bought tonic water for £2.79. That’s my four o’clock treat sorted.

£59.60 left.

Actually I took the tonic water out of food so that is £62.40 left.

£4 matcha green tea latte (expensive). It is the weekend, macha is not addictive like coffee and it was well made and nice.

I think the staff at the coffee shop were pleased I had finally broken the chains of the oat flat white, if they even noticed.

It's too hot to knit but I am doing a course to make a fairisle cardigan so I had better crack on.

£58 left.

With the spending thing it was always recommended you use a pen and paper, an actual diary where possible.  You can then see the build up.ans where your hard earned cash goes.   I take it an app would have the same properties?

With the degree, I did a part time law degree over five years. Six hours a week of lectures/seminars, about four hours a week in actual study during term time then add exam prep, assignments on top.  You need to schedule 2/3 evenings a week or about nine hours

Let me pass the Access course first! 🙂

Just chilling at home before work. Got ten minutes until I have to make a medical phone call. I hope they pick up.

I’m not taking my wallet to work today. Also I got some food out of the freezer so I don’t have to get food out of the house before my evening class.

Not looking forward to work. It would be ok if I was allowed to listen to the radio but I have to answer the phone. I’ve got a few miscellaneous tasks to do, a broken toilet to get fixed and then a spreadsheet task to work on.
