Don't think I'll be sleeping anytime soon, so thought I'd quickly update.
Things are going well, I think. A few weeks ago I ordered SG's Christmas present from my mum and she gave me the equivalent in high street vouchers. I'll be using them for food shopping next week probably.
I'd say my Christmas shopping is basically done- just need to sort out a picture gift for my mum.
I'll be baking gifts for SG's teachers this year. I just need to order some bags.
Hubby is going to take SG to the cinema at some point, she's not been yet. They'll probably go to a matinee I think once we down the day.
I'm well into the habit of using cash for shopping. I had a few days of feeling under the weather when I didn't update my budgeting app, but it wasn't hard to catch up. Especially since I finally cleared out my purse and put the old receipts in the shredding pile.
Got our warm home discount of 140.00. It's in the electricity meter just now. I'm hoping it'll really help our budget. It's already good not having to worry about it.

I'm pretty thankful for SA. I'm so glad I started this blog so long ago.

I'm way behind updating my sidebar, so I did that now. It's nice to see the figures going down.
I'm doing quite good tracking spending. Well, at least I have been for the past few days. Today's spending should only be a pound for SG's nursery for Children in Need. I also need to hand in the form for nursery photos. That's 17.00.
Have a good day everyone!

Today is payday. I need to figure out how much I actually spend each week on variable expenses. I'm still sticking with cash - except for my Tesco order, which comes on Monday.
I only have 37gbp left to pay on the last bnpl item from the catalogue.
I dont think we're going to visit my friend in Feb, it's looking expensive.
I'm basically done Christmas shopping - just need SG to pick something. She picked a toy for my mum to get her today. I also need to get my mum something, so I'm not really done, but I'm not stressing.
I need to buy a filter for the washing machine and a phone charger this pay. I've been putting off buying the filter.
