WILL MY BOOMERANG COME BACK?

I'm going to stay indoors today.

The weather is a bit indifferent and I don't feel like walking, golfing or playing tennis.


I should do some home budgeting though and will create a budget spreadsheet on the computer using Microsoft Excel.

I've sorted out all of the direct debits on the credit card after having to cancel our Visa cards because of an overcharging problem we had from Just Answer. What a fankle!*



Since moving house and discovering things to buy and some renovations needed, it seems that money is pouring out of our bank account. I need to get a track of our incomings and outgoings. While it's OK at the moment with The Old Girl working, when she decides to retire we'll need some budgeting discipline.

I'm not really looking forward to doing this as I'm way out of practice at creating and using computer spreadsheets but hopefully it will come back to me.










* Note the sensible and grammatically correct usage of one exclamation mark.

I would have thought there would be something easier than a spreadsheet these days...but it will fill in a rainy day. Good on you.

Play some haamonika. Not banjoe.

Shouldn't you be fiddling with yourself?

Have you found a spot for the lamp yet?

THE CURMUDGEON said...

It's not a spotlight.
It came with three lamp heads with bulbs.
Thank you for your interest though.
I'll be able to show you when you visit.

I'll bring a Cleanskin.
