So in terms of positivity where am I?  Still in the same place to be honest, still slowly working towards my goal &#8211; managing to save money, whilst tracking my spending &#8211; Still wasting bits though.<\/p>\n<p>The one waste, currently between \u00a332 and \u00a340 is the Lottery &#8211; since it went up to \u00a32 a draw it&#8217;s become more noticable.  \u00a316-18 per month was o.k. &#8211; but considering I&#8217;m not getting any return on my investment then it&#8217;s looking likely that&#8217;s the next spending cut.  Downside is I&#8217;ve had the same numbers since the start &#8211; and I can remember them &#8211; but fortunately as I can&#8217;t be bothed with watching the TV show I&#8217;m in a position where I should be able to avoid it.  I think the only thing keeping the lottery going is idiots like me that kept the same number.   I&#8217;m sure if they introduced a lucky dip from day one it would&#8217;ve been different.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve just paid for the next month, so I&#8217;ve got a few weeks to cancel.  I&#8217;m not knocking the lottery as I&#8217;ve won a bit of cash on the way, certainly way less than I put in &#8211; it&#8217;s just time to quit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A statment on my missing months.
