Day 16 Balance 132.36

I had my leaving do . It was a bring and share buffet. Everything I brought was from the shopping already counted. My vegan wellington went down well. I have masses of left overs too. I feel more inspired to prepare food in the morning for the day now, which will help us eat the fresh food, which is cheap* and nutritious - and it will b good to not be wasting it!
* lettuce and celery and carrots - I was somewhat concerned that my son called the lettuce a ‘giant Brussels sprout’ as though he has never seen one before but it is true that I had been buying my lettuce ready torn, in a bag - and throwing it away!

outgoings: £0 - we didn’t buy sweets after school as the Pokemon cards had arrived and he still had sweets left over from yesterday.
Activities: homework, bring and share buffet, Pokemon card admire and sort.

Concerns: G is not well and I am worried that changes at work will affect his employment. Also the balance is getting low. Achieving the full month within budget feels touch and go now and it is important to me that I don’t reduce our quality of life. This budget needs to work while retaining everything we have and do, by using the money more smartly and removing waste.
