Hi guys - how's it hanging? ( Does anyone say that anymore ?)
Today I:
1) Went to work
2) Made some purchases through Quidco that I will get reimbursed for
3)Received a lovely Fatface tunic off ebay that was £1.04 plus p&p
4) Checked for new jobs
5) Checked banking and moved money to my CC to pay for an Approved Food order.
6) SC x 10p
7) Hokey cokey on quickwash
8) Downloaded a Toby Carvery voucher - 2 courses for £5. I am taking my Mum there tonight for a cheap meal out. Bizarrely, the carvery has really nice vegetarian options!
Hope you poorlies are keeping warm. I've just got over my virus thing and now I feel as though I have a cold coming, bleeurgh!
See you tomorrow, L x0 -

Not sure about that Lurleene! Especially after watching 'Embarassing Bodies' last night:rotfl:
Well done Jonno - keep it going as long as you can, it's cheaper, easier and a lovely way to be close to your baby. I almost miss those middle of the night sessions ( almost...!)
I can't quite get the hang of these mulitple quotes either
Getting there...slowly!
GC : must do better
NSD: very rare
No matter how slow I go I am lapping everyone on the couch.0 -

Afternoon all!
Quite worn out this week - I think its the shock to the system of getting up at 6am again - not pleasant!
Anyway, my little list..- Walk dog (down to one again now, puppy has gone home) for free exercise
- Took lunch to work
- Had breakfast before I left
- Will make storecupboard tea
- Check banks
- Email uni school timetable
- Stay in and watch the soaps
- Almost had a NSD but am yearning for a glass of wine to end my week (no school tomorrow) - I managed the whole of Jan on a detox so think that a little glass or two won't hurt!:p
- Received job application form - will attempt to fill it in tomorrow
- Write a shopping list and meal plan for Saturday shopping
