Evening in with friends. || 2-4-1 cinema trips. || Boxset marathons. || Taking lunch to work.

March is a pretty expensive month so I'm trying to save some money but still not to scrimp to the point of being a recluse. I think I'm doing pretty well so far, and the saving for March is coming along.

Another month, another list. I like to set myself a list of things to do each month, they range from the simple to do things to things I really want to do/make/see. As January was so full on I didn't get to do one, but now as February begins...

# Cook dinner for friends.

What are your plans for the month?

my new year

Everybody goes January: New Year, New You. That's not really good for me. January is still full of the temptations left from Christmas and, by the time those treats have gone, it's my birthday. For me, January is still full of the indulgence that December had and so this time around, I'm calling February my new year.
By the time February has arrived, I've begun to accept that Christmas is months away, my birthday is over for another year and that its time to buckle down and to do/try new things. This year is no different. My boyfriend and I are still going to do the whole healthy eating routine that many follow in January but we're also going to explore and do more. I'm also going to make more; I was charity shop hunting the other day and found a candle making kit for the bargain price of £2.99. So much cheaper than what I had been looking at. I also have more homemade goodies lined up...I am very excited.
The new year is now in full swing and my head is buzzing with a million things I want to do throughout it; hopefully most can come true/will be successful.
