Nothing on craft, I started my garden month well, Fridays garden shopping boosted the total.
I did get a couple of new soft jumpers for the spring season, no reason other than I liked them and some underwear.
10 Books read this month.
This month is always expensive, car MOT, insurance and tax, we had budgeted for it, the insurance was the same as the pervious year, so we stayed with the same company, tax is only £30, it's not increased since we purchased the car. MOT just one advisory for breaks not unexpected.
We have made a good saving, our internet contract ends in a couple of months, Virgin has doubled their price for the second year, so we have gone with a local firm who is receiving loads of great comments, they have done all the installation and its working well, they give us free connection until our Virgin contract expires, we always requie a mesh to boost our signal inside the bungalow, the new firm has been really on the ball, the customer service desk have helpful people who we can understand. It's great when things go right and at a better price. Another bonus I can now see all post from Chris at Always Smiling.
Just a few bits of food waste, having the children here made a huge difference. We have been sent the council food waste bins, I won't be using them much, most of our peelings, egg shells and other kitchen bits go into my composter, I already have a covered container I use in the kitchen, I will put teabags, onion skins and pepper bits, which I don't compost, we are going to keep the bigger bin outside. Daughter is apprehensive about the system, her kids waste far too much food, it's going to be a shock for her, hopefully she can try and reduce amounts.
My weight is stable, small portions are working, I am walking a bit, not everyday, it's been too wet for that. It did wobble over Valentine's weekend, we did have Prosecco and chocolates.
