I will, erm, probably not do much, but
- do washing and cleaning
- hire a carpet cleaner, asked around friends for one, but no one seems to have one, B&Q do one for £25 apparantly. Money saving as will prolong the life of carpet.
- only eat food I have in from yesterdays Lidl shop
- might have to go bulk buy pampers etc with the money off vouchers I have before I loose them
- bought a couple of washable nappy pants in toddler size to try with DS
- bought another type of sanitary towel (washable) to try
- will try use at least 3 nappies washable on DS, it works out 11p a nappy for dispoable, so will save me 33p0 -

Really feel like I'm back on the wagon again today. Thank you all for welcoming me back so warmly. Just an update. Had a FAB DFW day:
Emailed solicitor about problems I'm having getting deposit back from previous landlord
Review with CCCS
Did most of my daily clicks
did all the paid ironing. Will drop it off tonight and get £18
Won £10 on bingo played using a free bonus I was sent yay! - and withdrew it rather than playing anymore!
Made hubby a pack-up for lunch
Sold highchair for £10
Made a huge spag (with buy one get one free sauce I'll have u know!) bol so can freeze some
Walked in the rain rather than catching bus - boys LOVED it! Especially the puddles!
Dont know why I stayed away so long! :j0
