Mo Money 52 week money challenge: Breaking the rules again, and taking CHANGE in week 18...£18 in the pot..sort of. What to spend on!!

52 week money challenge

I'm being more efficient with the whole picture thing. I'm trying out a collage app on my phone since really it's kinda of boring just going through the whole process with a stack of same old boring pictures.

Anyway the drama is another twenty quid (pounds sterling note) in the pot which meant I needed two quid (pound sterling) change.

The picture should support that process. The first on the upper left hand side is my twenty, then twenty and the money pot err... a bit of a mistake in ordering so the lower left hand side has the change and my twenty pounds then I put the twenty pounds in the pot. Confused? Confusing? Probably, you can see I had this bright idea on the spot. Next time I'll plan the pictures better.

 What to spend on!!

I'm thinking of getting a new tumble dryer. The old broke so I'm more or less going down the laundrette/ laundromat (US), and drying my clothes there. it's not that expensive, but it would be nice to have one. Who knows  if I continue I might be about to get a posh one...That is only if I continue because I'm starting to feel the pinch and also the annoyance of not having the right change. Plan? Yeah, but I don't have the time.

I could also maybe get a subscription for photoshop as I do my own book covers...or blow the lot (if I finish on my DREAM BAG a Smythson handbag - I've been eyeing them up for about seven years...

So let's look at my choices if I finish

  • A high-end tumble dryer
  • Subscription to Adobe and Vellum publishing - maybe a bit of editorial costs
  • A Smythson's handbag 
  • Savings for a rainy day....
Sounds good but we'll see.

My African American & Black Love Romance Adventure Nearly Ready After Four Years.

Thanks for dropping by and taking the time to read this. This post is going to be about my upcoming black love and African American contemporary romance release, which I think tentatively will be late this year or early 2024. It will be a six-part serialised novel, and I'll reveal the date nearer the time. It has been five years since my last black love romance novel. I have two novellas published on Amazon, and I'm  pleased to finally say, I'm about to publish again. It's been a long time.  I planned to release this book in February 2019, but after a long writer's block and other things, it had taken me this long to complete it.  If you follow this blog on and off, I've spoken about it a lot over the years. I'm thinking maybe I should relabel those blog posts as a series of how it developed.  The Story Description The names have changed well from Angelica to Pippa but it's fine.  Everyone wants someone special but PIPPA MILLER thinks not her. She

Lost Four Pounds! Attended Pilates! Watched Patricia Bright

On Friday my boss got bored of me talking about my eating plan and how I only used my gym for the spa facilities, so let's just say I forced to put my money where my mouth was and ended up booking five exercise sessions. Yes, hard to believe I've been with my gym for over a year and have NEVER ATTENDED A GYM CLASS. Mainly, because I like the spa and thing food reduction is the way to lose weight also just thinking of exercise exhausts me. I needed to book them via the website but having never done it, my password failed so I rang, in front of my boss, the gym to book it. Proof. They are mainly low impact classes so nothing too strenuous or so I thought. Come Saturday, I'm down the gym for my pilates class with all these fit, slim and trendy people. It's a 9AM class so basically like a work day for me. I thought pilates was gentle. Not. I say this having done it for about three years in a dance school - yeah I was once about twenty pounds or ten kilos lighter - and the

HAPPY NEW YEAR - LET THE GOALS ROLL

Hello all. Happy New Year! So last year was awesome for me because I managed to achieve one goal. The biggest goal which was to get a new job. And that came with financial reward as well. Yay! It was hard, challenging, horrible. I hate change but I had to get out of the rut I was in. Dudes, I was desperate to move. So I dug deep, did my interview practice, attended a number of interviews and hit one. Yay. Now longer gaming. I didn't need the escapism with my new positive work environment. I also abandoned the iPhone family and went Android. To cut a long story short, I got bought an iPhone 8 but it was faulty - however Apple weren't transparent about their return policy - ALWAYS ASK ABOUT RETURN POLICY. Nor did they believe the phone was faulty. It was. Anyway I was so disgusted the arrogance of the 'apple people', I decided instead of getting a replacement to spend my money elsewhere. I'm still part of the Apple family. But the Apple Store sales assist
