Yesterday my prep was one of the most important but also the most BORING!!!

Yesterday I built a budget. Oh the excitement! Haha

As you could tell, I wasn't posting online much because I was busy crunching numbers.

If you've not got a budget, get one! It'll help so much of your life.

Budget includes:
Gym membership (oh yeah! Time to get bigger!)
1 tray of chicken breast a week (deal with a local butcher)
Sellable items (extra coin off eBay)
Scythe13's Activities (indoor climbing, MMA, and Kayaking)
Savings
Debt payment (student loans suck! The bank of M&D sucks too)
A few other things like food and diesel.
Then....PREPS!!!!

Got a bit carried away with myself yesterday. In anticipation of my weekend in the woods I bought a DD travel hammock, hammock sleeve and the whoopie system, and some other bits an bobs.

Today I have signed up to a new gym!!!

All the machines are Nautilus or Hammer Strength (in my opinion, the GREATEST gym machines EVER!!!!!! It's probably not opinion, it could actually be a fact!!! haha). So that's me sorted and happy as can be!!!!!!!!

Had a wonderful gym session, which is really helping with another prep I have....my positive attitude! Having just been through some stuff (thank you all for the masses of support and love) and my attitude was weakening and I was getting really down, but because of everyone coming together, I managed to pull round pretty well. But....not that I'm in the gym.....HEAVEN!!! I love the gym too much. But that's also heightening my spirits.

Diet is now Chicken Breast, and Chicken Breast, and more Chicken Breast!!!! Getting back to pure healthy food!!!

Today has been a very busy day already. Even prep-wise, it's been pretty good.

Well, I'm managing to save money by making friends with the local butcher and buying a whole tray of Chichen Breast for £23.00, which is a saving of around £12.00 now in my bank. Moreover, I am happier to be enjoying the knowledge that my diet will be 10 times healthier and I'm going to be big and shredded for Summer!!!

Also, I've started to relearn the ancient student art of cutting your own hair. I used to be REALLY good at it (no joke, everyone thought I lied and actually went to a barber shop......after the first year of practice), and oddly enough, I've done a pretty damn good job today as well. So that's another £8.00 in my pocket. However, I'm now adding different scissors to my bags/kits, so that kind of changes my finances for this month (stupid non-free-scissors).

Furthermore, I have taken the rest of my day tidying up and sorting out. Room is tidy and all tools/blades are much more readily available.

Happy times!

Oh yeah, and I'm training daily which is always great fun!!!
Oh yeah, and 6 disposable lighters for £1.00 from Poundland. Let there be fire!!! Speaking of which, I've also rammed a load of cotton wool balls into small money bags from the bank, to help with my fire lighting.
