Setting the scene for 2019


The first week of January has flown by,  so ive  been working hard between my other jobs and duties to put together my plan on make 2019 a  more memorable  and  successful year.  Finances first as money makes the world go around , im using the envalope budget method to control mindless spending, so each fortnight i take out a set amount, divide it up for  everyday needs and long term or ongoing expense, when i run out in that area, i run out no going to the atm for extra. So far there has been only one deviation  from the plan but  i paid that back immediately.  So far so good.

Ive decided January is a use it up and shop from food storage month so only 40 dollars a week is allowed for fresh goods. We are eating our tomatoes , zucchinies and rhubarb  and fresh herbs, we have strawberries and figs rippening too. Whne we return from our holday i plan  to plant a late summer vege patch.  Its been so hot and more heat to come next week , so waiting a few weeks will hopfully make my vege growing more of a success.     


Ive gotten myself a flight plan of sorts to help me manage time better, it also reminds me that i have done more than i sometimes think i do. Last year i didnt get to do much sewing do im going to put a set time to do some each week even if just an hour.

Well thats all for now i must clean and pack for our holiday , we are going south and somewhere much cooler, and having lots of picnics, eating out will be limited to fish n chips at the seaside only.



We have an abundance of tomatoes  and zucchini 

My flight plan or  to do list.
