The Weekend Edition #89

August 18, 2019

Happy Sunday! Have you had a good week? It’s been a lovely weekend so far 🙂 I spent the day with Alfie yesterday, just the two of us and it was so nice. I rarely get the chance to spend the day with him by myself and it was good. We did lots! Gymnastics, happy meal 😉 and then a bouncy castle place all afternoon. It was was lovely 🙂 I must try and do it more often!

 

Today it should be quiet, though we’re off out this afternoon to Mr FC’s Aunty and Uncle’s house for tea, which should be nice. We haven’t seen them properly in a while, so it will be good to have a catch up with them, plus she always does really yummy food too which is always good!

 

The week has been quiet too; the weather hasn’t been too great so we have been at home a lot. Not that it means I’ve spent less – I really haven’t. I’ll have a YouTube video up later with my budget update for the week… it isn’t great.

 

Blog wise, I am plodding along! I am continuing to do lots of blogging work behind the scenes, including posting regularly on Instagram and filming for YouTube. I’d love it if you could join me on both platforms – I have lots of content planned for both! These are my favourite at the moment 🙂 Also, did you see my post on Wednesday? I have created a plan plus a free printable for you to create a starter emergency fund – it’s been very popular since going up!

 

5 things I’ve enjoyed/been grateful for this week:

1) Having a playdate with one of Alfie’s friends – he loved having him at our house.

2) The day yesterday with him – priceless times together.

3) Seeing our boys play together 🙂

4) A rare day to myself on Wednesday!

5) My new cash envelopes – see here.

 

What have you enjoyed reading this week? Any plans for the week ahead? I’d love to hear about it!
