Started - 

* feeling really bored. I’m not one to sit still for too long as I get agitated. I’m feeling agitated. Time to start doing things differently.

* worm farming to make use of our fruit and vegetable peels but was too difficult and I’m convinced I will kill the worms so have ended up selling it

Attempting to -

* create a monthly challenge for myself. The ‘not spending at least three days a week’ May challenge was unsuccessful so had a forced ‘closed wallet’ week where I did not buy anything for one whole week during the month. It worked.
