Benbens moneymaking adventure

Forgot to mention, today is one week since I started my diet, its my unofficial weigh-in as I am really supposed to only go on the one at the WW meeting, but according to my scales I have lost 4lbs :j :j :j I'm so pleased, but am going to stick to using the proper weigh-ins on wednesdays

Wow BB that sounds like a busy week!!!

Sadly I have to work 3 days... I *think* we're free on Thurs if you wanted us to come down? I have to check my diary and try to remember if I have anything on if I've not written it down... fairly sure we're free though!

Mum took DD to Highcliffe yesterday afty to give me some much needed rest, think did DD world of good as she slept through last night and no mention of a sore tummy!!

4lbs is fab - puts my measly 1.5lbs to shame. I am trying to convince myself that it is all turning into muscle because of the running, but sadly I don't really think that this is the case..........!

Have a great day out - weather here is pants at the moment, but hoping it will clear up later on.

Hi Tigz, glad ds had a better night, for her sake and yours I may be seeing my sister and her kids on thursday, I'm still waiting for her to let me know whether she's free :rolleyes: If she's not free though it would be fab for you to come down

Our weather is *disgusting* right now, hope yours is better benben - you're doing well to make £30 last the week of half term, thats great.

The weather here is pants too I'm waiting to hear from my friend as to whether she still wants to go for a walk today, think it will be very blustery and nippy by the coast :rolleyes: if she wants to go still then we will as it would be good exercise / fresh air, but if she doesn't want to then I' quite happy to have an indoors day I have already written a list of jobs, if we do go out today then I'll work through them during the week, but otherwise I'd like t crack on with most of them today

• Find ds premium bond numbers for my mum (she's buying him some for christmas)
• plan bits to make / do for halloween
• sort my present box and make a list for my xmas shopping expedition on tuesday
• ebay :rolleyes:
• put ds certificates up on his wall
• ironing
• clean guinea-pigs
• sort out my eyebrows
• do some writing with ds (didn't do any yesterday or friday )
• help ds write a christmas list
• sort kitchen noticeboard out
• clear out under ds bed (loads of toys/books have fallen down the side)

Not a very difficult list but would be good to cross some off

I've just re-checked my electricity stuff and when I did the comparisons the other day and the cheapest came out as 150.00 more than I currently pay,I'd forgotten to put that I use economy 7, anyway, having done it again, and with accurate figures, I managed to stay with scottishpower but move to a fixed rate for 12 months and it should only cost me an extra 7.00 a year, and if prices go up again then I should make savings

Karmacat

Well that sounds better! And that list - I've just gone back to listing, finished the easy ones now, got to go over to ebid etc. Scary stuff!

benbenandme

It does also mean I can rethink what to do with the 150.00 I'm in credit with scottishpower too

Excellent news! And now you have the difficult decision of what to do with £150.......life's tough!
