Hi, I'm back, been to work & I was the only person there, so sat & did a meal plan & shopping list. Went to Asda & spent £150 (scarey) but I'm hoping it will last a month at least. I will spend tomorrow cooking & freezing as I got 2kl mince & a huge piece of pork.
Hopi ear candles are great, I use them on hubby & on DD2, very soothing.

Afternoon all
hope everyone is well today
good luck at the hospital PP - hope all goes well
late one for me - thought life at w**k would be back to normal now that the other person is back but no - seemed to be v busy this morning and my colleague is off today so I am covering for him - never mind short week as I have decided to take Thursday and Friday off :j
Have warned OH well - I am fed up coming home from work to find the house a mess with nothing done especially when we have the kids staying. He called me this morning to let me know that he had filled the DW but was just waiting on the lunch dishes before he put it on (I put my foot down last night and didnt do a thing with the dinner dishes - so he had them to deal with as well)
B - toast and cheese spread
l - HM soup
d - HM pizza and chicken wings with sweet potato wedges (if I can be bothered)
better get back to work now
Take care all

Perhaps you are being 'got at' because you are so well liked Queenie. Sadly some people can be jealous of those who are popular.0

Afternoon everyone.
Well i'm back from my shopping trip, which was very succesful, although i'm shattered now. The pedometer is at 15,000 steps :j I managed to get my bridesmaids dress sorted. Other people in the changing room felt the need to tell me how nice they thought it was - twice. It's turquoise, a satin skirt, and then a patterened bodice. Very striking. Plus, we popped into 2 different branches of Debenhams as the first one didn't have it in my size, and it had 20% off in a sale, and then had a 10% off voucher as well with my store card, so we got a £95 dress for £68. Bargain.
Also spent £70 on things for the baby, but again, picked up bits on BOGOF or sale, so hae £18 to add to PMS.
Then came home to find a £160 gas bill. :mad: It seems a lot higher than normal, so i might get DH to change again. i think npower have put there prices up twice since we changed in November.
Had a lovely jacket potato with chilli and garlic bread for lunch. Then my friend treat me to a ben and jerrys ice cream as a birthday treat. Was lovely to catch up and have a healthy walk around in the sunshine.
Hope the day is treating you all kindly.

Evening all :wave:
Had a lovely afternoon with my teacher friend. We went to look round Peterborough Cathedral, which was really lovely. If you get a chance, then I recommend looking round it. But it's not as nice as Lincoln Cathedral(ok, I'm biased!).
Dilbert has been told that you're asking for his words of wisdom. True to our new moneysaving lifestyle, only have £x per week to spend.................... Dilbert has gone to the pub with a friend:rolleyes:! He's only gone for one drink, but he will be told in my best teacher voice that he NEEDS to post.
