woo hoo....lovely busy thread today

Last night went to free screening of Proposal on my own...how sad am I?? Was a great movie and laughed out loud loads - despite being on my own.

I have had a fantastic day. Took a day off work this morning and spent it well (details in list)

- waited in for man to change electric meter to prepayment. Not necessarily money saving in that it costs more but will def help me budget
- met up with friend for a coffee. ended up not doing the coffee shop thing but went to her house instead. Was lovely to offload and also hear how she is doing
- went on voluntary appointment with CAP. Really nice to help someone else with their debt than be completely focused on mine
- food from stores (although did end up doing yet another grocery shop.)
- update all receipts (I know I have overspent on groceries this month and am very very angry at myself)
- update sig done all but the receipts bit
- debt letters
- confirm a couple of days free holiday with a mate at end of July. Just be a day trip type thing with one possible overnight but will be lovely to focus on something nice
- make pot of chilli with added lentils for bulk nope, too late to do now. Am very tired - and horrified how much electricity I have used since 10am. Not even been in for most of the day. Am going to have to go to candles and making my own entertainment rather than lightbulbs and TV
- hoover stairs
- bleach clean stone steps outside to make entrance more inviting
- find online manual for my oven to work out how to turn it back on after electric man turned it off
- check banking
- check cc online
- do scratchie
- updated details on scratchie site to withdraw cash £10 on its way to me. Played 40p worth of bingo too, never won anything. Starting again at zero tomorrow
- check junk email accounts gave feedback for movie I went to see......and got another 2 tix for the same movie on Sun so I can take DD Also got notification that when I go to see 'Hole in the Wall' get filmed on Tue, we will get put into a draw for X Factor tix. Also applied for a couple of surveys but got chucked out before completion. Must get back to doing this
- get annoyed at pigsback for just being down right awful and decide its not worth it anymore
- get stuff ready to take to glasgow on sat to open co-op account
- accept invite to mates to go and play risk tomorrow night
- some filing of paperwork
- speak to dd and tell her I miss her
- remember to put out rubbish bin so dont use petrol on extra trips to tip!!
- do a wash and dry indoors

Think thats all. Must get on
