hello again gotta a bit more time now.
pp hope all goes well at the hospital
wishingstar big hugs
Thankyou far all the congrats I am so pleased to finally get somwhere.
We have only been able to look at the outside so far and it looks like it will need a lot of updating lovely 70's wallpaper and cutains at the momment.
It has a drive and garage which dp is pleased about. And the garden is quite big has both front and back garden which is lovely. It's 3 bed, the bathroom is downstairs, but that doesn't bother me at all as I amused to being all on 1 level in the flat. It's a good size too. The area is pretty good all the houses look well looked after, my mum has just walked up there and thinks its great :j :j
dp and I sorted out his secret chatting, I really think it was just stupidity and not thinking that he didn't tell me. I have also spoken to one of the ladys he has made friends with and she seems really nice, she new all about me and the kids so all is well.
Right i'm off to start packing properly :j :T
hugs to all

Just been to post my ebay parcels and held up the queue for ages
At least I am organised enough to say "1st class UK" for all of them and any that are anything else I deal with first. Felt like I took forever though and the queue was nearly to the door
:o:o
Oh well, off to input info in my Ebay Tracker spreadsheet and see if I've broken even yet...highly doubtful though. :rolleyes:Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!0 -
Afternoon
Off to the hospital in abit, picking DD up from school then going straight there. SIL didnt come and is coming wednesday instead and will take ironing home with her.
Washload drying on the line. Have had lunch and am getting a few bits together for the hospital just incase I have to stay in and some munchies for DD as the food prices there are horrific:eek: We are going to hit london traffic on way home, so may stop at a Pizzahut if we can see one as I have £30 vouchers that can be used there, beefeater or Brewersfayre. Will probably end up just coming home.
Anyways, best go.

Hi Nicki - do you have a link to the ebay tracker sheet please? Sounds good! I can never keep trck of things

ohhh I've had an 'interesting' morning in town. I've had this horrid sore throat thing going round that I caught off munch it has now moved into the sinus region so I've got a lovely headache.
Went to the market and picked up some apples and plums, plums were a bargain so I'm well pleased have been holding out for some to make a plum crumble but didn't want to buy tescos expensive rock hard plums but got a bag full for 53p.Went to the meat market as well had a look and ended up buying a big piece of rump steak :drool: and some pork chops. I think next pay day I will try a meat tray from them which is a tenner and seems to have lots in it.
On the bad size went to the bank and lost £20 which I found again, I was paying in some money DH has been given to help with the cost of plane tickets to Uganda he has been given £700 so far and tickets are £724.80 :T But whilst in there feeling stressed, tired and in pain munch was messing about and I ended up dragging her to her buggy and she banged her head and was crying....not very nice felt like a real *** the joys of parenting we have made up now and had a big cuddle though.
On the plus side it was nice to come home to the smell of a freshly cooked wholemeal loave :drool: and it has just about cooled down enough to turn it into a cheese sandwich as I'm starving.
I'm sorry if I sounded harsh on my DH earlier, I do love him and try to be incredibly supportive but its not always easy being married to in his own words 'a workaholic' and 'materlistic person'. We seem to come very low on his priorties at times and I get a bit hacked off occasionally.He even asked if he could go on a free trip to see Formula 1 for a weekend in June...umm good timing to ask me that question when munch and I haven't spent anytime with you for 22 days and when you've got a meeting every night this week!!!
men :rolleyes: anyway you make your bed you lie in it don't ya...besides hes not that bad really I'm sure we'll all get there in the end.
Right enough ranting I'm sure you'll all bored of it by now and I'm hungry so I'm going to get my lunch.
B- Cereal
L- Cheese sandwich (HM Wholemeal bread).

thanks to everyone, i've been and had a read on the debtfree wannabe board, and i realise things could be much worse. just sometimes when things go wrong, i feel like, god not again. or why me again. always when i seem to get on my feet. made a to do list, 1) freezer inventory, followed by meal plan as far in advance as i can with it all, 2) finish off budget spreadsheet, then i can see where too much money is going, 3) have a brew and a biscuit to celebrate getting that far, we baked some yesterday pm, and i'm drooling thinking about having one. supposed to be dipping them in chocolate tonight with dd, but one or two may have gone by then. lol.
fingers crossed by the time i get through my lists, i might feel a bit more cheerful and positive,
love
