Afternoon all!
Not a very gripping day today in work but I have finally submitted my Uni application for retraining as a teacher:j :j
Quite excited and nervous at the same time - very strange!

- Make 5 bean chilli (as per meal plan) to use up fresh stuff in teh fridge
- Walk dog for free exercise (one down in the drizzly rain, two to go!)
- Email visitors on the weekend to check what's happening
- Make a shopping list for bits needed for visitors
- Do some work!
- Checked banks - all still OK
- Checked loan balance and its £200 less than I thought:T - will make an additional payment of about £900 - £1000 this month so only 3 or 4 payments left after that - will have to start overpaying the other loan then....
- Moved £20 into Xmas savings internet pot
- Checked phone bill - OK this month, only the plan to pay for , no extras

Hi Everyone
Fayjmac- I love that thread. I have a long list of great ideas that I copied into a word document. I love it! I now cut up all of my face wipes into half (or even a quarter on a no make up day!); washing up liquid and handwashes are all in dispensers and I even buy bath creme to replace the handwash when it runs out (also good for the environment:T ).
Today I will:- talk to my best friend in France - she usually calls me because it is free for her!
- check the job pages of the newspaper
- More ironing - I must to at least 30 mins or the mountain will take over:rolleyes:
- Washing (creating yet more ironing!)
- reading for class on Thursday
- Relax with a face pack from my stash
- go out and get some fresh air - 20 minute walk around the block.
- Find out if stamps are still 5% off at superdrug - if they are then I will pick a few up.
- Update spending diary
- Try to work some magic on my accounts - been a bit bad this month.
