pammyj74's MFW diary (or possible wishful thinking!!)

pammyj74

i have a tiny 20pts waiting to clear on dooyoo, its so frustrating.
Think as I have shaved another month with the cheques I have put in that I am going to use this cheque for school uniforms

Had my PJ day and a NSD (of course)
And have done 3 1/2 hours study over the weekend. The book I have got out of the library has been brill altho its 1999 edition. the latest edition is £30 on amazon!! I do have enough in there for that (I have £90 on amazon) but I dont want to pay that, so going to keep using this book while I can. Not sure how many times I can renew it.

I have had no surveys sent today or even had any on onepoll :mad:

Had a few things sell on ebay tho and this month so far my clear profit after all fees is £23. Not a lot but when my book finishes that will be another £17 on top.

YAY managed to redeem my dooyoo cheque at last :j
also another NSD for me (apart from postage which is already paid for)

DS2 moved up in swimming today and was very nervous as he wouldn't be able to touch the floor. He was amazing and I was so proud of him. At the beginning he was even scared just to jump in, bless him. I love praising my kids and of course he loves being praised
DD is a fantastic swimmer and a year older than him, she swims like a fish and better than me even. Was thinking of getting a refreasher swimmers lesson for myself!


Got my free plants today, marigolds, am about to plant them. They are already budding. And I am chuffed that one of my rose climbers that I put in last year has its first bud (one of many I hope) and my poundland rose climbers seem to have taken as they are spouting leaves
My sunflowers seem to be doing ok, not sure whether to replant them outside yet or not.

Managed to redeem £10 amazon vouchers (can only do 2 a week so this is the second week from my comp win )

a few people have paid for their ebay items and I have been able to withdraw £30. £10 of that will be postage tho. This month my clear profit is at £42 so far

Have only just sat down, been a busy day today. got some great garden pots off freecycle and a great hanging basket stand with solar power light. I love it! Bought a couple of plants today in Morrisons, one was half price though and needed rescuing so still be money saving lol.

Am really annoyed as dug out passports so I knew they were where I thought they were and realised that the kids ones ran out in Jan :eek: so thats £100 down the swanny! :mad:
Hate having to spend money on things unexpectedly
Might ask their dad if he will pay half :rotfl: can ask tho cant I?
At least I realised now before it was too late!

SmlSave

Surely that means he can't take them anywhere abroad then? or perhaps I'm just really mean.........

pammyj74

exactly. When he does ask I will then ask for fees for use of the passports lol

SmlSave

plus paperwork, post and time expenses.....

oh! and interest on his part as obviously it was only a loan

pammyj74

i need some lessons from you lol

Am sooooo tired again, i dont know why, I think I just dont recouperate enough before I start again.
DS2 had party straight from school half hour away so had to drive there, me and DD went for a walk around to kill time. got home about 7.30 after getting some new plants and compost (naughty spend day ) but I see as saving some poorly plants (some are now on death watch)

Had a guy come round to look at the loft insulation and getting that done for free. I hope it makes my old house a bit warmer. Although I need to get the stuff out of there and I have NEVER been up there so dont even know or remember what is there.

Not many challenges complete but have withdrew £55 from paypal
