    i did find myself looking throught the tesco catalogue last night and find i was pointing things out to him like oh what about that bed............think maybe i need to get out a bit more.

    also was his birthday last month and even my mum wrapped him up a present....think she maybe hinting for grandchildren.

  • OK so 1 weekly to do list coming up (In no particular order);
    • Go through cupboards and do a meal plan for at least a week trying to use up what I've got (the ''wannabedebtfree'' way - not planning what to eat on what day just planning a load of random ones and picking on the actual day what to have)
    • [STRIKE]Re-look at the budget for next month (less than 2 weeks away for me - payday!) as I think I may have accidently left some things off last time. Tut tut for not being focused. :o[/STRIKE] Started this but its not going very well! Keep getting disrupted. Will put it up when its done.
    • Book in for a hair appointment at some point after payday (only £15 and not been done for about 6 months- Im in dire need now). Doing this at lunch.
    • [STRIKE]Actually do some studying - not just say Im going to- need to get to grips with my evening courses.. cant just blag it as I did last year. :( Its a lot harder now! [/STRIKE] Done some on monday daytime - going to do more on saturday
    • Do some house stuff. Decluttering etc. It really is just a tip at the moment!! :eek: Not good. Need to get it in order ready for christmas! :)This is planned for the weekend - conscripted OH to help!! :)
    • Shop for a curtain pole. My living room is freezing as I have no curtains up just blinds that dont fit right. Waiting for my new ones! :(Also told OH we are doing this at the weekend :rotfl:
    • Try to have an indepth look at things I can do to raise more money - 2nd jobs, ebay, scratchies?, car boots etc.
    I think thats more than enough to get started! :) :T

    So as you can see - a lot is planned to do!! Well thats a start! ;)
