Against my better judgement i have ordered my machine from Dixons as it was £20 cheaper and i can just afford it. Really hope i've done the right thing as they dont have the best customer service reviews:o So tempted to cancel the order and wait til i have the extra money and order from the co-op.

Morning ladies
Having one of those days when time just slips away.
Dalies done and kitchen sorted. Just need to get all my stuff together to go to town - taking a sarnie with me to save cash and I'm meeting friends for a coffee early afternoon and I'll be starving by then.
Why have I got a cat around my neck like a scarf purring in my ear?The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
First job today.. EAT!! I am starved!!!
Nails looking pretty and after the panto last night the children got to school at.. 10:30am... I did ring and say they were going to be in late as they didn't get to bed until after 10pm last night.. but it is a one off so not too drastic! .. They'll have got there in time for break lol. Most others would have kept them off for the day!
I did nothing yesterday so need to get heaps done once my polish is properly dry.LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -

I shall stick them in the washing pile and hope they don't get lost! :rotfl:
I'm very impressed with your decluttering skills!
Ok TD is on for 20 mins just to finish off what I put in there yesterday. I have DW to unload and fill, WM to unload and fill, wet clothes to hang up. Wonder if it's the wet clothes making my hands dry out, my skin is so dry it's crackingI do keep putting moisturiser on them.
And more bills today! As well as the £63 I have to pay for DD1's dancing term, then the £50 odd for her costume...I now have another £50 to shell out for DD1 and DS to do Beavers and Cubs :rolleyes: That's on top of the £65 for tuba loan and the £58 I just paid for my back injection. I think I'm going to get the child support paid into a different account and use that for paying for all these things, well the children's subs etc.Fluttering about an inch off the ground, I may fly properly one day and soar in the clouds!

Lost list (maybe didn't post it??)
Friday - Boys room and bits of other rooms that need it!
Wash and dry bedding
Vacuum floor
Vacuum Mattresse
Re-make beds
Tidy books box
Wipe windowsill
Dishes away
Make quiche
Driving lesson
Giving myself a short list today as I did so well the rest of the week, plus the boys' room doesn't need much.
In-laws coming over at 2pm to have the kids for 2 hours while I do driving lesson. I won't be back until 4.30 so need to have quiche cooked before I go.
Haven't cooked quiche sinse I had a huge argument with my pastry and threw it all over the kitchen early last year!
I always used to make fab pastry but one day it kept going wrong so I refused to do it any more, think I am ready to stop being childish and get on with it!June Grocery Challenge £493.33/£500 July £/£500
