It’s Easter so lots of bunny stickers! I like it.
It was my brother’s birthday on the Saturday hence the bunting stickers. And if that wasn’t enough, I’ve been given day release to visit my parents’ house for Easter Sunday Roast and to see if the Easter Bunny has been. The bunny has been but my hospital room is far too warm and soft chocolate us terrible. I’ll be leaving the eggs here. I still have chocolate from Christmas left over, haha.

I also made myself a quick month overview, so far it’s monitoring my No Spend April. Going well so far, it’s alright if I’m buying something for someone else, right?!

Have a good Easter, if you’re into that, general well wishes if you’re not.

No Spend April

Despite being in hospital for the entirety of March, I still managed to spend way too much money. The internet is both a blessing and a curse.

Spending money is too easy, there’s really not a lot to do and you find yourself browsing Amazon or Etsy and then you see something and you think to yourself “I’m ill, I can treat myself”. I do this a lot.

To counteract this, I’m going to be taking part in No Spend April and now that I’ve put it out into the big bad world, I absolutely have to complete this. Game face on.

Obviously, things like bills and rent have to  be paid, the necessities are still allowed but no more pens or stationery or any other impulsive purchases a month.

I’m not expecting it to be easy, I enjoy spending money on nice things. Realistically, I’ll probably slip up a few days especially if I get out of here by the end of the month. But it’s a first attempt and if I manage to save any money, it can only be a good thing!

Wish me luck, etc.
