I have been given loads of courgettes from Mum & Dad and a work colleague so have been trying various recipes, this frittata was lovely and I had most of the ingredients in the house already that needed to be used up. Nectarines from the local market, 12 for £2 – Bargin! Jelly was already in the store cupboard and the biscuits a colleague brought in.

September Goals

September Goals
  • Lose at least another 2lbs
  • Walk 8000 steps every day
  • OP Mortgage by £285
  • List 150 items on Ebay
  • Paint table for Art Room
  • Finish Bottle Top Art piece

Update on August Goals

Lose at least 2lbs – Did this one….just!! YAY!!

Use Vitamin C Serum daily – This I have been doing and I haven’t broken out into uncontrollable
spots, I have been using my prescribed Azeliac Cream (I do daily anyway) so that has probably
helped but I think it has made my skin look smoother and more hydrated and it feels softer. I made
the mistake of asking my OH if he’d noticed a difference in my skin and he said NO :(  I’m going to
carry on using it because I think it’s making a positive difference. HAVE A PAT ON THE BACK!

Overpay Mortgage by £285 – I managed £295.07 - SMASHED IT!

List 150 items on Ebay – I got to 105 as for some reason I had “list 100 items” in my head and was
congratulating myself. MUST TRY HARDER!

Paint table for Art Room – yeah….I have done some more coats but not finished it!! Again MUST
TRY HARDER

Knit (and knit and knit!) bunting for Pride Parade – This I have succeeded with GO ME! I was even knitting in the car & train on a work trip. :)



Also it's the end of Year 1 of MFi5v2 – £2000 OP this year and a total of £20,400 for the 6 years
