Puppy classes were a waste of time for us . We had 1-2-1 training which was more for us than him and it was fab.

The socialising is a pain, but you can still do that if you know people with dogs so don’t worry

I didnt buy anything with ours (it was a UK holiday so wasn't loads) I transferred the money over to our Florida savings instead

We have put ours from April to one side. We assume our California trip in August won’t go ahead so we will move that to next summer and the money we got back from April will pay to go to Florida in 2022 as long as we both keep our jobs through the aftermath of covid.
2 years ago my son had to have a liver transplant and we had to cancel 2 holidays that year as he wasn’t allowed to travel for at least 6 Months. We used the money to buy a proper hot tub! It was the summer we had amazing weather and it was great as we had loads of lovely weekends in the garden and it has also been good during lockdown with the good weather we have had.

We’ve bought a dining set for the garden and have a hot tub on order which is due to arrive 10th July but I’m hoping it will be sooner

2 cancelled hols one to tenerife and one to costa del sol, also had grand national booked which saved lots of money and a trip to Blackpool. All this is now sitting in savings for Disney next October and has took the stress of saving away.

We are putting a lot of the money into upgrading next years holiday. It was meant to be a cruise out of Miami and a few days in the keys and now hoping to add on a couple of weeks at the beack club. Oops.

But I posted about our lounge a few weeks ago which turned into a whole downstairs reno. New everything. I have loved Etsy for furniture. Last piece I would like is a fish tank. Makes up for missing snorkelling in the Maldives. Lol

I’ve just moved most of mine forwards to next year, but that was easy to do because they were cruises.
However, I do still have some balance, and I might buy a new laptop because it’s the only thing that I wouldn’t mind getting, but I can’t be bothered to invest the time in trying to choose one! All the descriptions of hard drives, processors, gb, tb, memory, and goodness knows what else puts me off as I don’t understand a single word of it.
All I want is a large screen device that I can use word, the internet, dump my photos from my phone onto and occasionally listen to music!
Maybe I should go back and start planning more holidays. At least I know what I’m doing with that!

Both DH and I working from home. This may be a longer term thing so we're setting up another office space. Chose table from IKEA nd ended up adding new bedroom furniture

I’ve had 2 trips cancelled, one to Canada in April and one to Sicily in August. So I have spent the money on the garden, painted all the fences, bought new furniture and had loads of time out there thanks to the amazing weather. I’m usually out and about and really busy so I’ve enjoyed having the time to spend painting and sorting.
Also ordered new storage and cupboards from Ikea and loved having a good sort out.
