If you google it, it comes straight up. I registered, verified my email and mobile number and got 2000points, then just play freebingo to hopefully win more points. Very boring to watch, but I just have it running away in the background and keep checking. Worth a try anyway....:p:D

Hey Milly.... don't think I've posted on here but I do read as I've seen you over on BB's thread.

We had a lovely day today,BB is lovely.... am so glad I met her. Weather wasn't great tho, had showers of rain, but nothing bad enough to ruin the day, just damp... so much so that when I got home I put a sausage casserole in the oven and put the heating on for a bit to get it all cosy.... not very MSE tho!! Ssssshhh don't tell BB.... :rotfl::rotfl: expect she's still down the pub anyway....!

Anyway, keep on with the diary, it may inspire me to start posting on mine again.... !!

Ooooooh sausage casserole and heating on sounds lovely!! I keep trying to convince myself it's summer - tshirts, patio doors open, no heating, but it's not is it?!:D
Glad you both had a good day out - how fab that you're near enough each other to do that. Sounds lovely when BB talks about her days out - I am always stuck for things to do around here, that don't involve spending money of course;) And with an 11 and 9yr old to please it often does involve spending money!

And yes....you get posting on your diary - I'm feeling much much more motivated right now, had a rough few weeks, so fab to be feeling well again!(Think the steroids help with the energy, but I wont knock it:D)

Morning all!

The sun's just arriving here in Bath, I have one washing out and another in the machine. Just leaves the bedding to wash tomorrow.

Girls are with their dad til later tonight and he's feeding them so an easy day for me. I have lots planned tho' - I must get the house up together beforeI get back to work on monday.

Bank is looking so low - on zero:eek:hehehe. But ex's 1st standing order payment is on it's way (so he says:rolleyes:) - hopefully it'll be in monday. And HB due in tomorrow, not that I touch that - it goes into the bills account where all my DDs and rent come out of, I just live off the tax credits each week. they're due in thurs, so once I buy some food tomorrow I won't need any money.
DD2's Guitar lessons fees are due this week and Brownies....but I've been good and been moving money to cover clubs into an old online account, so that's all accounted for.....coool:p

Ok....here's what I need to do today....

• Clean bathroom
• Dust/tidy/hoover my room and girls' room
• Hoover through rest of house
• Go and collect our re-heeled shoes
• Get sorting clothes for ebay
• Ironing:mad:
• Fit in watching my Beverly Hills 90210 dvd from Lovefilm!! (possible while ironing!;))
• Clean out rabbit and move his hutch - makes my garden look untidy:p:D

Ok, that's about it. I did a meal plan for next week last night and the list to go with it - hopefully we shouldn't need too much. It's amaziong, if I hadn't written the meal plan, I'd have thought we needed tons, but we don't really - got lots of meat and bits to use up in the freezer. I love this being organised lark:rotfl:

Must crack on then, dry my hair and get dressed wouldbe a good start;)

Ok, well I seem to have been busy but haven't done much off my list
I tidied up the kitchen/diner this morn and moved the computer desk and dining table around - just fancied a change! Then I swept and mopped the floor and left that room all lovely clean and tidy:p

I then nipped out and picked up the reheeled shoes - a really good job he's done, they'll last for ages now I hope:D Then went to Sainsbury's - I don't ever go there, but it was next to the repairers AND I remembered I had lots of Nectar points, so my £35 shopping only cost me £12 after using points...cooool:T
I then had to nip round to big Tesco though, as Mr S didn't have a few bits and I wanted the cheap value things in Tesco! Spent £17 in there, so grand total of £29 for this week's shopping - that'll help the bank balance recover:rotfl:

Hoping ex appears with somecash for me, he owes me for last weekend, but reckons his boss didn't pay him yesterday - hmmmmmmm. ut, I shouldn't need to spend now this week...that's the plan anyway.

I'm really tired now, don't feel like doing any more cleaning. I did sort through a big bag of clothes for ebay - it's all in sizes now, so can see what I can do with it! It needs ironing too tho....grrrrr:mad: 2 loads of washing on the line need to come in....oh joy, more ironing!:D

pixiechick99

I sat down to sort out all the clean washing, put most of it away, rest in the mountain of ironing;)

Then I dusted the lounge, tidied and hoovered, looks lovely now:p So that's all of downstairs clean, tidy and organised - just need to attack upstairs tomorrow:rolleyes:

I fancy nipping out to Focus tomorrow, see if I can pick up some compost, seeds and plants for tubs - will see if the girls fancy a trip out!

Dinner is on - just a burger I found hiding in the depths of the freezer and some oven chips. Have a lovely glass od rose, well diluted with lemonade tho:rotfl:

Girls duue back after Britain's got talent - my peace shattered:p

Pleased with what I've done today - at least downstairs is sorted before we get back to school. upstairs shouldn't take long (she says, graoning at the thought of the piles of ebay clothes on the landing!!;))

Off to lie on sofa now, I've earned it!
