    I am soooo tired too mummy and like you I should be in bed yet I am on here trying to catch up with you and the gang!!

    £2000 paid off is amazing really well done!!
    I love it when an item sells on amazon or ebay, makes you feel good about making money from clutter.
    Right really must go and do some stuff and get everyone ready for bed.

  • DD2 was really good yesterdday and didnt make to much noise! apart from dropping the little tub of cheese biscuits i had given her just when it was all quiet!! Then afterwards she was the centre of attention so loved it!! was running around talking to all the people even ones she had never meet before - dd1 would never of done this!!

    I didtn get a chance to come on here yesterday, dd2 fell asleep in the car on the way home so then ofcourse wouldnt go to sleep!! she fell asleep at about 9 which was shortly followed by me on the sofa!!

    House looks like a bomb has hit it for some reason even though i wasnt in all day! and we had a takeaway yesterday as i was given some money from my great uncle (he always likes to give us a £10!) so though i would treat us as i was so tired..

    Today dd1 has a party which i thought was next weekend for some reason so dont have a present yet so will have to pop to the shops in a bit, need some nappies as im very low so will have to get them aswell..

    Dh is at home all weekend again they havent got any overtime for him at the moe - not that he would prob end up being paid for it!!!!!!So we will have a nice quiet weekend i should think. Might sort some of the baby bits out......

    anyway of to have a look around and then go to the shops....

  • hellowave.gifMorning mummy, glad dd2 was good yesterday. My house looks like a bombs hit it too but i just havent got the motivation or energy to sort it as 10 mins later it will be back to being a mess! might bribe my fella to do it tonight whilst i put the kiddiewinks to bed.

    Where can you spend the virgin vouchers??? and where do i find qype????? what do you review exactly???? (sorry bout the hundred questions)

    Oh and if you see supernanny, kick her this way, need her with ds1 as he is becoming a teenager at the age of 4!!!!!!!!!! I thought they just had terrible 2's, but know one tells you it carries on!!!!!

    love rags

  • http://www.qype.co.uk/promo/virgin just wrote about it on your thread aswell, this is the link to the page to join up i think, not to sure where they can be spent as the page wouldnt load so i will have to look later... You can review anywhere, shops, resturants, pubs any where that offers a service and you have been to - it might be harder for me this time as i have already done 70 so need to think of more places i have been to.......

    :T Yay I am glad both your houses look like bomb sites too, makes me feel much less an inadequate mother and much more like a normal mother:T

    DD did well to be quiet at funeral and sweet she got a reward in fuss from people after.

  • my house is a little more organised and a little tidier......still have loads of washing for some reason.....but will hit it tomorrow, had to do the school coats and scarves etc as both coats are covered in mud!!

    Anyway... done a few reviews on qype and also got dh to sign up and he has done two so a start, hope we can get them done. I had a look and there is loads you can spend them on: days out, resturants, holidays, virgin vie cosmetics so im sure ill find something to spend it on.... :)

    Done the scractcard and my dailies for today (havent been great with them resently...) noticed kelkoo is only 1p now on quidco!!!

    really didnt want to cook tonight but made myself and was so happy i did as another takeaway would of cost a fortune!!!

    got my bank statement through and being charged £9 less in interest this mth for some reason, which cheared me up. Also the min payment on cc has gone down which just shows the debt is going slowly down... of course i will be aiming to pay more then min payments!!!

    Might give dd2 a go without the nappies tomorrow and see how we get on!! the last few days she has been telling me when she is wet etc so might be good signs to start her - and think of the money ill save on nappies:p :p
