the weekend has arrived and what a beautifull one we're in for, unfortunatley no money :eek: left in the pot even for the nasseties, used up all avaliable in the freezer so I'm gutted that I will have to empy the loose change pots to help survive till Tuesday, althouhg it's my own fault have been a bad girl and ben carried away when shopping:(

had a coffee with a friend yesterday as we go shopping together every week and have told her that unless it's on the shopping list I'm not to get it:o need to get back on track was doing rather well (be free to give a kick up the backside) will sit down later and sort out budget for next week later.
also going to look at the mse forums to get some idea's.

hoping your all enjoying the weather as much as me.

Morning Ruby,

Virtual kick coming your way
Just had a quick read through your diary will complete later after work.
Why dont you list your stock cupboard and what you have available and see what poeple come up with, I saw someone else do this the other week and it was fantastic.
It doesnt cost money to have fun, how about a walk in the park or by the river with a picnic. I did this the other day with DH and it cost nothing and was a great day.
Enjoy the good weather be back later to see how meal planning is going

Thanks herewego

have done stock cupboard listing and have quite a few tins avaliable, have a a nsd :)which doesn't bother me would rather see the bills go down:), just struggling again like every one else, kick very much appreciated.:o

I know what you mean Ive been living off tins which Best before date shows Oct 2008. 6 months ago they would have gone in the bin not anymore:money:
Im still here to tell the tale and no dodgy side effect yet
The tin im not looking forward to is the rice pudding and i have 3 of them, but the tomato soup spaghetti and beans were all fine.
Well done on your debt busting will read more when i get back from a quick run round Mr T if i run i dont put much in the basket :rotfl:

Well DH and DS are on their way back from stoke, DS is still not well so will try and get apt for tomorrow, waking up to this miserable day hasn't helped the lack of infusiasium today, have done housework and washing did sit and look at the houshold finances this morning but couldn't get to grip with it,(only managed to find the ct paperwork) that i'd lost.

I feel bad that I have let things slip and have slowly got out of control again:o:o, I need to get back in control NOW before I loose all control although the debts are slowly creeping down:) which is good.

My DD has now decided what she wants to do when she leaves school next year, She wants to join the Army and I have told her that if that is what she wants to do she has our support, as she's already in the Cadets Its a good start on that carreer path.

Great news that DD knows what she wants to do :0
Hope DS is on the mend soon.
Keep plodding
