  • Finally started on the kitchen and the bit I have done looks good just a whole lot more to do :(. Why do I wait until the day before work!!

    Sold a PS2 game on Amazom so thats £6.30 profit to go towards the present neutral challange. Have lots of things that need a new home that are more car boot stuff. Not sure whether they are worth ebaying? Running out of room to store for car boot. I suppose thinking about it I can ask my Mum to store it.

    Spends today are £1.50 milk and £10 OH

  • Other update. DD2 has a water infection so took her to doctors Monday only to find out Mum back in hospital after a fainting/sickness fit. Saw her briefly and seems ok just awaiting tests now, Played the generation game down the phone with a nurse on what I needed to bring in from Mums house! Got called out the office yesterday on short notice so OH had the fun of dentist for the younger two. DS ok but DD2 needs treatment :mad:.

    DD2 tired from the holiday this morning so crying at everything. The cold snap has made her want trousers for school. She only has one pair and with the washing machine still out of action we were left with tights that are too small :mad: only found out today because she wouldnt wear them before as it wasnt too cold apparently (aargh flaming kids!). Cue a return trip to Tescos for more clothes.

    DD1 away at camp. Mummy missing her. Who am I going to argue with! Not used to my little one being away for longer than a night.

    Been accepted for citibank so need to wait to hear from virgin first before doing a balance transfer. Limit only £2k though hope its enough.

    £15.50 lovefilm from Jan last year has finally been received on quidco so should get £10.50 from that hoping the £50 from Yes comes through soon.

    Hope everyone ok. Im sciving (sp) today not feeling great and stressing about the work I have left.
