Today is sure to be a good day. My migraine has almost completely gone, I’ve woken up feeling well rested before my alarm and I’ve just completed Wordle in 2!

My thoughts exactly 🤣🤣

I’d also find it funny if it wasn’t so true 😂 @Sun_Addict and @ohdearhowdidthathappen!

Completed Wordle in 2 again this morning. Surely a sign that I’m about to become lucky with money too?! Or just very wishful thinking and it’s all downhill from here 🤣

We’ve had some very refreshing rain this morning so I’ll enjoy the fresh air while we have it!

A weekend of reading with a glass of wine sounds wonderful!

Thank you for dropping in! I intend to enjoy it.

Despite the early morning thunderstorm, today has been unbearably hot. Eldest has polished up nicely and is out at his prom - a full suit in this weather though 🥵. I really hope he is enjoying it as he seemed very nervous getting out of the car. Unlike so many others, he didn’t share a car there or do the prom parade for photographs. He may have found it easier arriving with friends, but they seem to be similar to him in that they tend to keep their heads down and didn’t want a fuss, so quietly made their own way there.

Back at home, we enjoyed a lovely steak dinner and a glass of wine/lemonade. I ended up working late to finish some documents I was working on. My Monday self will thank me for it.

I have another tricky problem I’m facing at work at the moment but am determined to park it till Monday. Just three weeks left before a long summer break. It’ll be utter bliss so something really positive to work towards.

Wishing anyone popping by a lovely weekend!

Adding to remind myself tomorrow - I have made absolutely NOTHING extra this month with side hustles, cashback or surveys. April and May brought in a great amount of extras and this is maybe why I’m feeling the burn this month. I want to overpay more of the CC, mortgage and loan, as well buy more premium bonds and add to savings. Challenge to self: make a sale before payday on Tuesday. I can’t end with £0 in the bonus bank.
