9/14 for me today. Yesterday was a pretty spendy, but super fun, day with a uni visit with DS2 in Bristol. We visited St Nick's Market and had delicious street food (he had a BBQ beef brisket bun and a salted caramel brownie, and I had Korean noodles and tea). Such a rare treat, but it was extra enjoyable after working so hard on my financial health 😊 Sometimes we need to remember why we are doing this 💞
