Thankyou for al the lovely messages! Well tonsilitus knocked me for six! Starting to improve a little though.
Opened my statement today from asda cc and i had a late payment charge??? When i looked into it i had underpaid min amount by 54p :mad: how stupid. So in my most croaky and pathetic sounding voice i rang them up and asked them to take it off and they did!:j I am so dippy sometimes rushing rushing rushing i paid on line and usually i round up min amount to nearest pound but went the wrong way this time!!!:rolleyes:
Had gas and leccy and tey owe me over £250 gas and £100 electric theese were estimates though so will submit accurate figures tom!
Food budget going well (not that i have eaten anything:rolleyes:). Def no chip shops and looks like no petrol used for most of this week for work unless i get better sharpish!
Hope your all well

Not much to report as i have not moved! only from bed to sofa and back!
Bought Little J another present he really really wanted for christmas but i took one thing back (well out of christmas pile) and put it by for his b day! Never would have done that before!:rolleyes:.
One thing i really love about the Autumn/Winter is the food. Lovely homemade stews!! Cheap filling and tasty!
Off now to sort out Little J'S costume for play!

Hi imd i am really thinking of getting a slow cooker:rolleyes:. Went out of the house today:j!!! Went to get the pringle offer in morrisons and i got the 7up also!
I am really holding off party food as i dont know if it will get used and i think i would rather do turkey rolls pickle's and crisps for any visitors and mince pies?? I have spent all day cooking theese little party bits before and most of them just taste the same
.
What do you all think? I am having dinner at mil's christmas day and at Sisters christmas night, and boxing day i was thinking of doing a nice big stew???
The shops are then back open and i have never seen empty shelves after christmas have you? Food for thought today!:rotfl:
