Thursday 29/1/09 What small dfw things have you done today???

Head-Out-Of-Sand

urrrrrrrrgh...

Well the chest/throat infection has well and truly kicked in!!

Had physio appointment this morning so had to drag myself out of bed but physio took one look at me and sent me back to bed!

Stopped in at Asda as need some survival provisions for the day, as I doubt I'm gonna be bothered to cook anything today (boooo, bad DFW!) but, it's payday tomorrow and I checked how much change I had in my purse (£3.92), and decided I was not allowed to spend any more than that. So I got;

- Bottle of Asda Fizzy Berry flavoured fruit crush thing (47p)
- Cup a soup/Slim a soup (2 for £1)
- Grapes snack pack (£1) - a vague nod at getting some fruit in!
- Pringles (74p) - I, er, need the carbs for energy, to, errr, fight the germs off. Oh sod it, I'm sick and I can't be bothered eating real food!
- Onion (18p) - If I feel better I may attempt to make soup with some of the wilting veggies in my fridge. Therefore I need onion!

So not too bad, didn't use any cards or spend money I don't have!

Now back in bed and "Abbamania" is on telly so I'm set for the next hour or so!

Bathgatebuyer - good luck with the house hunting!

Morning all!!

Was sat hee waiting patiently for the thread this morning, and the minute it popped up the blooming phone rang, little one started creating havoc etc! So here I am, 2 hours later! Oops!

Fayjmck I'd go for the Florida thing if you possibly can....somewhere I've always fancied taking the kids

Bathgatebuyer Hope the house hunting goes well!

Not going to be a very good DFW day (more of that in my list) but I will TRY and be good!!

* Go looking for baby clothes (OH's cousin had baby boy this morning - she lost her first one shortly before her due date and had to go through labour for a stillbirth. Horrible time and everyone so happy for her now). Will resist the urge to shop in Next like I used to and will go to george instead.

* PAD pay £1 to studio

* Put change from purse into Bertie Bassett

* Get fuel whilst at Asda - cheaper there

* 3 lots of washing at 30'c

* Have heating off whilst doing ironing while watching Masterchef (keeps me warm - if OH cold he'll have to run around a bit!!:D )

* Buy cheapish fruit and veg while at Asda - OH got a healthy fit on - a colleague of his died of heart attack the other day and now he's concerned (with reason) about his own size and health!


Thats about it. Nowhere near a NSD but will try and be sensible about what I AM spending

Have good days all!!

Morning all!! Today I have/will

• checked on-line bank and update spreadsheet
• daily scratchies
• new hairdressing salon opened at the college where I work today so might look into a cheap wash and blow dry (can't see the students doing much damage with that - not sure I'd let them loose with a colour)
• sort out Avon delivery later ready to deliver on Saturday
• start the next Avon order on a spreadsheet
• 30p more into sealed pot - whatever's in there before we go to Las Vegas in March will be changed into dollars
• hopefully a NSD today
• do daily clicks
• send off some comp entries

Can't think of anything else just now - hope everyone has a good day

Regards

Emma

BusPass_2

Took car to work today BUT mileage for visiting clients will make up for door to office and office to door spend.
Home made sandwiches for lunch.
Free tea and biscuits with clients this afternoon.
Office supplies teabags and milk!
Checked on line saving (£550 sent on Monday now showing on account) Yipee!!!!
Home made soup tonight.
Found 1p on the pavement this morning!!!! OK it's only 1p but it makes me feel great but a bit sorry for whoever lost it. I would feel really guilty if it was a £10 note but I can cope with 1p.
No spend day.

BusPass - don't worry about the 1p, there are a lot of silly people who drop change and just can't be bothered to pick it up (my brother being one of them)! We profit from their silliness

Well, I didn't get the one £1 hotel rooms that was mentioned in the MSE email! Gutted! But I guess looking at it from a DFW angle..I don't need to pay out from train tickets and a meal out! Would have nice to go for my birthday though in March. Ho hum!
