I wonder if I’ll have any money tomorrow. The Hilton in Munich put the wrong charges on my card, leaving me out of pocket by about £100. I told them on Tuesday and I’ve been told that it is being corrected and would take a couple of days. It would be nice to have the money back, because I have no money in my account and it’s only 15th November.
Not having money when you know you can scrape some cash together from out of the coin jar isn’t so bad, providing I don’t have any emergencies between now and payday on the 28th. But that’s two weekends, and the second is a weekend away on family duties, This is going to be tough.
All of this makes me think about money wasted on coffees and lunches I’ve bought at work. It would be nice to think I could bring a packed lunch and a flask of coffee to work every day. This is something I have tried before and it’s something I need to start again. The only problems is to decide what needs to give so I can do it.
Packed lunches and economising seems like a good idea right now. I don’t understand Brexit. What I do understand is that it’s a bloody mess. Ministers are resigning over the PM’s deal which is going forward to the EU, and all I know is that it’s not Brexity enough, and it’s worse than were we are now. So either way I need to save and spend well.
I could have been listening to relaxing music at the moment, but instead I’ve switched over to Question Time. I’ll listen to Question Time Extra on the radio afterwards too. All of this is car crash political TV. There’s nothing I can do, and I watch a catastrophe in slow motion.
I wonder if I will have any money tomorrow.
