You seem to be super organised at the mo....it's great to get back on track isn't it!?!
Hope that pay cheque arrives soon, usually when no reply it's a case of they've made a mistake and sort it asap to hope you don't realise :rotfl:

I'm feeling pants about everything today :mad:
1/no pay cheque STILL from work :mad: he *promises* to send it today. We shall see.
2/my mum has visited me and done nothing but criticise me :rolleyes:
3/OH's friends had great pleasure in sending me a pic of him on a stag weekend with some PR girl with her boobies out :rotfl: He is drunk and he is just posing for a pic with heram i supposed to throw him out??? divorce?? They are just trying to wind me up i know but just can't help thinking its a bit immature. We have been together a long time now after all. The pic doesn't bother me as there are loadsa pics about on facebook of me looking worse (also drunk and completely innocent
) but it is obviously bothering OH as he keeps offering me cups of tea :rotfl: And what one of his friends just text me has def crossed the line :eek: But they aren't my friends so i've left it up to OH to resolve. If he wants too!
4/Bathroom isn't finished and should've been today :mad: As i'm a tenant i feel like i can't complain as it isn't my place iyswim AND they just turn up unannounced. Luckily i was up this morning (and dressed!:o)
5/on a good note - NSD today!! :j
oh and 6/heard that my grandad is unwell again :mad:
but done any comps and checked freebies..
And....i've got washing up to do and a basket of ironing before bed tonight. So i better get started...YAY!:rolleyes:
Hopefully my cheque will arrive tomorrow and i'll feel a lot better:D

Ah well... same *!(" different day as they say! :rotfl:
I think I should just save the following in word and then copy it over each day. "STILL NO PAY CHEQUE FROM WORK" :mad::rotfl: It is just getting ridiculous now. I've been able to do some juggling and so we should be okay but it is getting tight. HOPEFULLY it will come tomorrow so I can pay in bank but i am not going to hold my breath :rolleyes: I'm not due to actually see them again until Sept now and we def can't last long without it.
OH has decided to ignore his friends comments. Ok fair enough. I certainly wouldn't if it was my friend but i guess that is where men and women are different
Bathroom is now painted - it just needs tiles and flooring and the shower connected up again. I had a bath earlier :eek: and it was nice
Have done an online shop to be delivered tomorrow....74 quid. So 24 OVER budget :mad: but that did include lots of items which should last longer than a week. So..we shall see if it balances out. I'm going to add it all up in my sig tomo so I can keep an eye on it properly.
Have done scratchies and online banking today. Am just about to start doing comps and freebies.
We have got a fairly quiet weekend ahead so we are planning on sorting shed out so we can get things listed on ebay and put away properly. Also need to do a bit of gardening and wash car but those depend on the weather :rolleyes: We have friends visiting on sun and then i want to try and sort out my work stuff and do some filing :eek:
And I was thinking earlier that i need to check when our Mr T voucher is meant to come thru from SKY as it has been a while since we signed up now :rolleyes: They better not think they are getting away with that one...:rotfl:
Oh...my basket of ironing is still there....lurking at me...will try and do it later if i feel up to it
YAY - its friday :j:jDFW Nerd #11520 -
Well...OMG....CHQ HASN'T ARRIVED....again...:rotfl:
AND....family who owe me catologue money haven't given it to me and i have no money to pay it. So it won't get paid. again. and it's me who has to pay the charge for late payment. again.
:mad::mad::mad:
I'm so annoyed about it mainly i think becuz people think they can take the pi$$ out of us. I'll admit previously i probably wouldn't cared but that would have been because i had a fulltime job and i had money to pay it until they gave me the money! They don't seem to understand that having no ft job means no money:mad:
Even more annoying was that they are going on holiday this week so are probably thinking they would rather spend the money when they are away and pretend they haven't got it. Which just makes me sooooo mad. I understand the logic but that makes me think that they really are just taking the pi$$! We are seeing them later and i've decided i'm going to say "ok, you haven't got it, but we had a conversation a week or so ago when you figured out you had to pay it before you went on holiday so don't bother lying about that as i'm not stupid etc. I'm not going to fall out with you over it and i can't make you give it me but i'm not happy as will get charges etc and its just hassle for me. As soon as you have it give it me as i need to pay it asap" or something along those lines...
And to top it all me and OH have had a short barney about it :rolleyes: Luckily this the last full payment as the next one is only half the amount and then its done. They had the cheek to ask OH whether they could order something else next month luckily OH has said NO WAY! He is fed up of it. and so am i. I'm never doing it again.
It's really awkward though because its not worth falling out over etc for but it is just so annoying. It makes me think that they do not value me/OH very highly??
And my next battle is to get the 200 quid OH sister borrowed off him before last xmas :rolleyes::mad: The words pig...fly....sky...
Yet another lesson learnt in life - never borrow any friends or family money!
This has turned into a bit of a rant...so RANT OVER and i'll give a proper update in the next post.LOL

Ok...normal diary resumes...
No pay cheque arrived yet - *hopefully* it will arrive soon.
I will go 180 OD if it doesn't get banked asap. I will be okay until the end of the next week.
Done banking and scratchies. all looking fairly miserable
Had shopping delivered. Will update siggy sometime soon. They also gave me an extra bag of pasta
Having a bit of a chill out as i think i need it after my rant. lol. Then got to carry on sorting ebay stuff out before going to visit OH's parents later with lots of family. DS will enjoy it. I won't! :rolleyes:
This is the first week of my OS shopping list. DH commented that there was lots of food but nothing to just "bung in microwave" :rotfl: I am making toad in the hole later so we'll see how that goes. ha ha.
Can't do some of my jobs this weekend as it is raining. Washing is on the airer.... off to tidy up and will catch up later on xxDFW Nerd #11520 -
Im sorry about the catalougue thing, it was the same for me when I did Ann Summers Party Plan, friends would order stuff and expect a discount, plus they would end up not paying me so I would have to try and explain to AS that I was trying to pay!
NIGHTMARE!!
I have joined the grocery challenge too, noticed your post...good luck!!
I made chicken pie last week in individual ramekins, was BEAUTIFUL!! and you can remind OH that once you have made extras, there will be stuff to microwave!
I have some of those takeaway tubs that I put the excess into, one for each person if its a full meal, or one between 2 if its going to be put with veg and stuff. I put little address labels on saying what it is and whether DS can eat it (he has allergies!)
Anyway, I hope that you can relax some today, and that your paycheck awaits next week!Pay £15k by Xmas10 £1478.19/£15000[STRIKE]24/07/09[/STRIKE] present - loan - £8550 overdraft#1 - [STRIKE]£2516.87[/STRIKE] £0 credit card - [STRIKE]£1210 [/STRIKE] £0TOTAL - [STRIKE]£12276.87[/STRIKE] £9133.63:T0 -

Have done banking/scratchies. Nothing too exciting there. Bring on Monday
My rant obv worked as family are now going to give me the money on Tues before they go away. Woop woop. At least it will only be a few days late now (it was due yesterday) so should avoid charges.
I also had a word about the other money DH is owed. Don't think going to get it back mind but at least they know it hasn't been forgotten. :rolleyes:
Anyway...it is raining here again so not much can do really. Got friends visiting this arvo so going to have a relaxing morning and then relax when they arrive later! Its sunday after all. DH is going to get everything sorted for me to carry on sorting things out throughout the week. Hopefully can then start getting things on ebayDFW Nerd #11520 -
Glad there has been a positive update for you! and I am pleased my tip has come in handy!
Its actually beautiful weather here today (fingers crossed!) Ds has a birthday party to go to this afternoon so there may be the opportunity to go to the park afterwards!Pay £15k by Xmas10 £1478.19/£15000[STRIKE]24/07/09[/STRIKE] present - loan - £8550 overdraft#1 - [STRIKE]£2516.87[/STRIKE] £0 credit card - [STRIKE]£1210 [/STRIKE] £0TOTAL - [STRIKE]£12276.87[/STRIKE] £9133.63:T0
