    Good Morning :)

    Hope all is ok :)

    Hope the interview goes well :) as for Quidco they pay out on the 1st and 15th of the month so should be released tomorrow :) x

    thanks Hidden. I've just realised my payout limit was too high so I've reduced it, hope it goes through tomorrow. If not, no big deal. I'll look forward to it in a couple of weeks.

    ok so I've transferred from OHs savings his rent and bills for next month, it's sitting safely in my savings account til end of the month.

    Have bought a dress and cardi for an event in a few weeks- i'd budgeted £100 but I really don't want to spend that. I've spent £33.62+£11.98= £45.60. I have shoes and hopefully should be able to rustle up a bag from somewhere so possibly only need to buy new tights- we'll see if I have any lurking!

    Fingers crossed it fits as reviews said the dress sizing is small so order a size up. Hopefully, if I like it but need a different size, there'll be time to send this one back and the new one to arrive.

    need to amass an ebay pile, miss having dribs and drabs of a few pounds coming into my account.

    Feb 25th-Mar 25th budget is 90% done.

    some laundry done and hanging up. Bed needs changing, fresh sheets on and old ones in wash. Rubbish needs to go down. Washing up needs putting away and both bathroom and kitchen need wiping down. Should make sofa too. Then the BIG job is the floor wardrobe!!!


    something with sausages for tea tonight- possibly pasta or jacket potatoes

    so just joined netflix via quidco for the cashback- currently watching serendipity (suitable for V day!) and looking to see what happens when I've watched the minimum 5 hours of footage. so far nothing showing on quidco from it so will sit tight.

    there is no sign of cashback from sainsbobs (due £80x2 for new pet insurance policies)- they aren't even showing there.

    sigh- something's gone wrong- any ideas anyone on how to chase this up?

    ok so yesterday was another NSD for me, some bus fare was needed for an outing but OH paid as we had to go for him- thanks OH!

    Today will be spendy as I'm out for lunch and will need bus fare too.

    My house is looking a little messy so I will need to sort this out this morning (what's left of it!) or tonight. I need a mini list:
    hang up/put away clean laundry
    make sofa
    tidy up lounge
    washing up and putting away
    wipe down surfaces
    litter and rubbish taken out
    bed sheets stripped and on a hot wash
    fresh sheets on bed
    bleach toilet
    tidy hall

    Have salmon and cous cous with salad for one meal today and will put a bolognese on at some point too for OH. He has a very nasty tendency to eat pizzas and pies if I'm out so I hope he'll resist as there's plenty of prepared food.

    Next post will be about budgets and my plans for getting DF!
