:T:hello:Well it's Saturday evening 6pm and here i am updating my diary,

God what an exciting life I lead.( I'm happy really!! honest)

Today I have recycled a door curtain, a piece of copper pipe and 2 large hooks, Having had a new back door fitted last week they dicided to leave me with a bigger draft than i had before :mad:, so today with curtain, copper pipe and hooks enter door curtain, and it didn't cost a penny :T, already had the curtain, made hubby rumage in his shed for hooks and piece of pipe, made opening in both end of the rufflet tape on the curtain threaded pipe through curtain, and because I couldn't reach (short) OH put it up for me, so for me thats my handy job for today, for tomorrow I haven't decided yet but it could be baking another cake for OH or stock taking all food and household cleaning materials so i know what will be needed for shopping on Tuesday.

Hi Ruby1968!

I'm updating my diary at 6:30pm on a Saturday evening too hehe. At least I'm not out spending more money though!

Sounds like you have had a very productive day indeed.

Oooh baking a cake tomorrow, yum. I love baking and then eating all the delicious treats afterwards. I also like doing a stock take of all the food in the house and then getting it all used up. Makes me feel very frugal and organised

Hi beanielou there are for of us 2 adults 2 teenagers (they eat like horses) also wouldn't mind but my eldest doesn't even help towards costs. ( thats another story), I know it sounds abit high but I always allow a bit more and thats my budget this isn't every week and whats left over goes towards next weeks food bill, I am going to start listing what my food bill is each week and keep the reciepts for everything even though it's all on bank statements, also going to take calculator shopping,(sounds)daft but is works for me, At moment am starting with home baking and cleaning materials.
