My August Spending diary

August 2013

Hmmm August has not got off to a good start, the past 3 days have gone by in a bit of a haze which is why I am starting afresh from today (call it cheating?  I call it being creative lol).

Mid month is going to either be super challenging or super easy as I'm off to my mums for a week with the kids.

Things can only get better eh!!
