Getting down to business! :)

Glad you are planning on staying around a bit, Sea.....we missed you when you were not here. I caught glimpses on facebook, but I don't generally venture on there much.

I have got to do a meal plan for next week too - December is looking rather expensive, all round, so whatever I can glean from the grocery budget will be much appreciated!

Oooh - now facebook- I tend to be on there playing silly games!!!

Might have a dig around the cupboards and see if I can make some meals from that all til payday!!

Right, new to do list now, that includes the weekend!!
Doing these things will leave me freer to do MSE stuff. Going to investigate other avenues of selling possbilities too. Been giving a friend stuff for a car boot, thinking perhaps I should start saving them up and doing one myself. Mind you, I don't think I have enough *to* do a car boot...hmm one to think about - maybe after Christmas!

[STRIKE]Washin - of course - this is always ongoing, but want to get it done and out of the way before the weekend begins proper!

• Marking - stuff in my planner and books I'll collect from school tomorrow - going back in for INSET day.
• Yr 7 reports - will get my school laptop sorted so I can access system from home.
• Sort dining room - small table pile and at least 3 shelves.
• Letters to my mum and 3 others.

[STRIKE]Sophia - homework and reading

[/STRIKE][STRIKE]Comb kids hair - nits caught again, but am on tracka t getting rid!!
[/STRIKE]

• Send insurance details off to LloydsTSB ins - had a bump - boooo.
• Update Christmas list

I have a dilemma - my bf gave me a few of my pressies last nignt to check they fitted - he bought me clothes:eek: Thankfully he has good taste, but I know they were expensive and also know he's spent quite a lot on xmas and my bday - now I am really really grateful, and have told him I can't get him much, but so far I've got him a dvd lol. Feeling a little pressure about it - I need to scour cheap places to get him some nice stuff. Never shopped for men's clothes etc before!!!

Can anyone help with any ideas????

Going ok with the list - the kids were absolutely shattered tonight and playing up sooo badly so they're tucked up in bed now. Not sure if they'll stay down of course, but fingers crossed!! Can get on with some other items in the list now...

hi, don't know if you have one but i get my OH stuff from Matalan, good quality but quite cheap/reasonable. It's the only place i can get some stuff for him. Otherwise i get stuff from the supermarkets which is generally good quality.
Fingers crossed with the nits, my sister is currently fighting a war with the school about them. My niece bleeds everytime she uses the treatments/combs conditioner through due to a skin condition so my sis has had to have words with the head about letting he wear a big hair band/scarf which seems to hold the bu99ers off.
good luck with getting Will to eat everything, my nephew 'billy' was a little monster at one stage on what he would eat or not. It's a battle of wills isn't it (no pun intended lol)

Well just finished watching Sea on the telly - well done. Now I understand better about you having more than one mum.

lol- glad it's bit clearer!! I wish it'd been longer -the subject could have done with a bit more detail I thought, but then I'm biased after all

Thanks for the ideas - will def try them out and because I've finished my shopping this month, I've got a little bit to spend in december - but will be restrained!!

Combed kids hair tonight - nothing there so that's great - we had a long nightmare time with the nits before using all inds of products, but the kids hair is shorter now which helps a lot!!!


Much love to you all.

Thankshun- just doing BB now - not won so far!

Checked bank today -thank goodness I did win that money the other day as 2 cheques went out and I now have 37p til MOnday!!! Avoiding overdraft charges thank goodness.

NOt been up to much really. Didn't go back to work - felt rubbish still. Found out I have enough nectar points for me and bf to go to the cinema for free tomorrow -bonus!! Been doing my surveys again - long and frustrating, but worth it really!

Lots of weekend hugs to all!
