Hiya Everybody - hope you're having a Sunshine filled Sunday

Today I have/will:
1. Made my own yorkshire puddings (I always do that tho!)
2. Taken over 120 photo's and will list the stuff on eBay
3. Check online banking to make sure all is how it should be
4. Bought soap online. Yes you can laugh! But it means no more shower gel that the kids can over-use when in the bath! I got nearly £2 cashback and free delivery.
5. Used the same water I par-boiled the roast spuds in for veg
6. Started working out how to do christmas this year (first budget for it in years)
7. Did gazillions of clicks on QuidcoNo chocolate, cosmetics or clothes to be bought before xmas day 14! ~ NPower eBay target £541.670 -

Thanks for the lovely welcomes!
Getting married 5th September 2009...less than 11 months now!:eek:
Me and OH are currently saving for that as well as saving for University (I'm going to a local Uni in Ocotber 2009, two years full time to do my MA)!
And....working really hard to pay off the very high debts!
Still, this site and particularly this thread has been a great inspiration already! :j
