What to do today?
* hang up yesterday's washing
* chop and freeze 2 packs of super 6 leeks
* go and pick up some boxes to make wormery have been searching for black boxes which I can't find so now am going to get clear and paint them
* finalise cc payments. Started doing it yesterday but as it was the first time I'd paid in to my new account it didn't go in instantly and I was worried about transferring larger amounts without knowing it was going in iyswim?
* pick up some compost for more sowing
* flylady
* finally do some baking with madam, must get out of this cba to cook phase!
* think I'll take madam to the park & the library

Good Morning All
Overcast and chilly here, DS came home very withdrawn and sad yesterday as a boy in the year above him had died in a kickboxing tournament at the weekend. Sat here waiting for a Dr to call me back (the surgery rang me 3/4 weeks ago to say a Dr wanted to see me, they couldn't give me an appointment as none available but told me to ring in a morning from 8.15 which I've been doing but all gone by time I get through, was so blimming fed up this morning asked for Dr to call me back - why? what's it about? My response I don't know as he asked to see me - someone will call you back - can't get an appointment but happily still taking on new patients :mad:) Today

I hope your DS is ok - it's hard for them to take in sometimes isn't it?LBM 11/06/2010: DFD 30/04/2013Total repaid: £10,490.31Student loan repaid: 01/07/2019SAVINGS: £20,000Car final lump sum: £6113/£61130 -
Hi guys,
Crikey, that's sad ziggy...
I've got two things to take back for a refund today - £12.50 to me and £10 to gift card.
I was on the Dave Ramsey site last night... Just thinking about a £1k emergency fund... Whether I should just pay minimum on my 0% cc's until I build one up... Could put away around £200 a month I reckon :think: I have £883 set aside for 'true expenses' (big yearly bills and expected unexpecteds...) so I guess whenever that reaches £1k next month I can kindofa be happy that it has already happened, but it's not really the same because 'car insurance savings' aren't really an emergency IYSWIM... :think: Arghhh, too much money stuff going on in my little head...
Here's me:
Packed breakfast and lunch :A
Leftovers for tea on a jacket potato :A
Checked banking/YNAB :dance:
Do everything in the house that I didn't do last night
Lift to/from work - happy to still be a one-car family
Shopping with a (small) list
Looked at gifts I've got to buy (sorry I keep going on about this) and decided a couple of them that I can cut back on... Still need more of a think re mum's 70th...
Boring money day really - just how I like it!0 -
Hello,
Cycled to work today, weather is ok but a bit windy and overcast fingers crossed it wont rain.
Cycled to my meeting in town, bought a coffee which will be reimbursed - £2.99 for a flat white !!!!! shocked
Popped into H&B picked up some nuts
Got a few meetings this afternoon then I've got to do a buffet for 20 people for tomorrow when I get home.
Brought lunch in to work for tea I am going to do peppers stuffed with veggie bolognaise and some mozzarella and salad (or kale)
