    afternoon

    I got an upset tummy again:(

    hada good start to the day too :( the toilet flooded soaked the bathroomj and my kitchen :( took paul 3/4 of an hour to unblock loo, then we had to scrub the floors (my kitchen floor is gleeming now :))

    we've had a chicken roast dinner with a leg and 2 wings left over as my mum decided she doesn't want us to put anymore dinners up for her (she has decided its time she stood on her own 2 feet and became more independant :)) so i have rung her back and offered to sort her freezer out and she was quite vague with me, i offered to go to the meat van and get her some meat, was told she won't be buying any meat from any meat van!! so dunno what i've done to upset her.

    Ames - got any kidney beans or lentils?

    Re Rictus' post. For me DFW has transfomed my attitude towards money. I'm not so afraid of it and more confident in looking at costs, budgets etc.

    In highly ironic news - this month I received a 6.9% LOB offer on my credit card which now has a 0 balance (due to me being DF). I never, ever had an LOB offer before, like when I could have used one :rotfl:
