    What a lovely thing to do for you - you DH sounds lovely.

    Still staying away from mum today as I still have a cold. I hope to catch up on some housework.

    Catch up soon

    Decided not to go to town in the end and will be going saturday instead now.
    DH managed to work last night but said the ice and snow was worse tham christmas and new year that was really bad.
    So he's going to work through it and I'm staying off until monday by which time I'm hoping that it's mainly thawed out.
    Tomorrow I'll fill the car,do the banking,pay some off Halifax CC and take DS food shopping...can use all main roads for that.

    Today,I haven't done much....
    housework,washing,drying etc and internet banking....paid an extra£45 off DHs BMI card but can't update sig as I need to wait for statement as theres interest on that account.
    I've put the money into halifax ready for feb 1st reg saver payment and moved £1k around accounts to make my £10 bonus for this month.

    Thats about it really.

    Haven't done much - you've worked ur backside off in the house.
    Its suppose to be a thaw, so hopefully get a good shift of the snowand ice.

    That was so lovely of DH. x
    xx rip dad... we had our ups and downs but we’re always be family xx

    My DH has always been like that with us..he's a rare one indeed.
    I'll be back to work monday as the snow/ice is starting to thaw.It's been raining today and is due to tomorrow.

    On the debt front today I've paid:
    HALIFAX CC.....£270.00
    A+L CC.....£242.5O.

    I need to update my sig and also need to read back through some posts to see how much I've paid off the £20k challenge as no room in my sig when I find it I'll update my post.

    £25 arrived back from Virgin today as well.

    Am def going clothes shopping tomorrow.

    We had rain today but instead of washing all the ice away - the pavements in the side streets are worse than ever - a bit like when they spray water on an ice rink and re-freeze it.

    Take care Taxi - I'm impressed that you have managed payments even when not working.

    Weather is better here...ice now thawing.
    I went to town today but didn't find anything I wanted so vouchers still intact for another day.
    Nothing much else going on here at the moment.
  • Makes a difference when the weather is slightly better. A relief all round. :)
