• Stick to slimming world all day and still enjoy a glass of wine tonight
• Heating on very low
• NSD
• Not using any petrol
• Check online bank accounts
• Catch up on rest of thread
• Go through local paper and look out for special deals/competitions
• Start puzzle section from trashy magazine
• Draft budget plan for payday on Monday
• Continue chilling out in my pink socks and lovely slippers
• Sparkle!
• Free texts and phone call to friend to catch up

Hi everyone,
Managing to make it on here on average every 2 days, not bad going!!
Pip (keeping you all happy!!) is sleeping soundly now, why oh why does he not do that at night?
Today I have:

• NSD
• Didnt do a wash, as for first time this week there wasnt a full load.
• Lunch at MIL
• Daily Scratches
• Started 3 surveys only to be told I wasnt what they were looking for:mad:
• Checked online banking
• Made payments to Credit cards.

Andan, if its your cleaning day do you mind popping by as my house looks like a small baby size bomb has gone off in it!!:rotfl:
