Morning all!
Have woken up to a couple of inches of snow! Thought that was all over with now? Have already walked the dog in it - he reverts back to puppy mode when there's snow around and bounces around like a muppet!



Today's list includes....

• Clean bathroom
• Do yet more school work - who's brilliant idea was it to be a teacher?!
• Cook nice dinner for OH and I later
• Check banks - have spent tons this week and its at least another week until payday so on rations from now on in!
• Walk dog again
• Have a look at newspapers online instead of wasting money on reading lurid headlines
• Get stuff ready for school tomorrow
• Have a mega printing session later so mentor thinks I've actually done something over half term!
• Watch a film later already taped on Skyplus rather than hiring/buying a Boxoffice one
• Have a nice bath tonight and have a mini pamper session

That's it for today - back to writing lessons - booo!

Edit - Have just decided to make some flapjacks/oatmeal cookie things too - baking at 8.30 on a Sunday - my mother would fall over laughing if she knew!

Good morning happy campers!

Well, X Factor live Tour was brilliant! Olly winked at me three times (at least, I think it was me...that's my story and I'm sticking to it!:)) Great night out and best of all, didn't spend any money at the venue apart from a bottle of water! This is particularly good as I didn't buy any food (bought me own with me) so I stuck to slimming world all day :T Feeling very proud of myself today! :T


My list:

• Walk pup
• Finish the big bad essay - 800 words to go!
• Meals from stores
• NSD
• Indulge myself....Eastenders omnibus this afternoon
• Use free minutes to call mum and dad for catch up
• Bit of reading for work placement
• Washing at 30 and airer dry
• Catch up on the thread

Have a lovely day all

Hi everyone :wave:

Hoping for a productive weekend! (I fuming about my cc application but I'll relax after this cuppa, stick to the thread topic and concentrate on the small things!)

My small things this weekend are/will be:
- Staying in today - housework by day and good HM food with the tele by night (Might pop out to get some vino...still have £2.50 in my purse and some coins in the jar!) Mmm, was so tasty. And much nicer than the last take away I had!
- Decided to use the restaurant vouchers for Sunday lunch. Plus, can have a soft drink and won't be tempted by 'spensive restaurant wine that's not worth it (I heard there's usually a 3 to 4x mark up in restaurants btw!) Just thinking about having breakfast and getting ready so will probably wait til 3 or 4 to head out.
- Sold old mobile so need to pack that up ready for posting on Monday All ready
- Catch up with some TV on iplayer (not much of an easties fan though ) Task for tonight I reckon
- Might do some baking But the eggs are more appealing for breakfast...
- Need to do a March budget and sort out what I'm paying to where in prep for payday next week. :A Hoping to pay off cc #2 (#1 is all clear!) in 2 pay days' time - budget says I can but it's gonna be tight! :T
- Chased old electricity co to see where my cheque for £100+ credit is since closing my a/c with them - takes 28 days!!

Take care everyone.

It's a lovely snowy day here today. :snow_grin Think we'll wrap up for the walk to the restaurant and make some snow angels in the garden on the way back.

Hi al , well todays dumping of snow has spoilt my plans of a long healthy walk with DD. Instead we are currently sat in front of the fire with the heating on high waiting for the house to warm up .

My alternative plans for today :

• check banks
• text freinds with free texts
• ring family with free calls
• Get into loft to store some stuff and a general rummage around
• more cleaning
• more ironing
• more hokey cokey dry on airer
• lunch from stores
• tea is roast chicken that shall become several days chicken and rice dish.
• meal plan for week
• indulge in making banana bread if bananas arent too far gone.
• list some items on ebid / ebay

Weather report looks bad for week but luckily i am on holiday from work and have switched work phone off ! Probably won't acieve all i want to but at least i can relax . Enjoy the rest of your weekend folks , stay safe and keep warm.:)

God morning Peeps (well just obviously though have been up for ages pottering - honest!)

This weekend I have and still plan to:

• Catch up with friends - check - 2 lots officially caught up with which has been lovely and very low spend to boot which is even better
• scratchies and the like scratched, played etc
• try to get fire going today without benefit of wood - was intending to go twig collecting in park but 6" of snow has put paid to that - refuse to buy those measley bags of kindling so may just have to wrap up instead
• take dogs out in snow
• wrap e bay item and list rest of railway stuff
• advertise 3 larger items in local paper for free
• push buy button for already sourced house insurance, using cashback site + newly acquired cashback credit card - double bonus me thinks
• make bread to have with lovely veggie soup that OH made 2 days ago - freeze remainder as there is limit to how long it 'improves' with keeping in pot (ie before it starts going mouldy!)

Think thats about it for now - house is lovely and clean due to mad amateur fly lady session yesterday in honour of visiting friends so may spend 20 mins ensuring it stays that way for a while longer

Take care all - nice to see you on here sparkles, welcome nomorespending, pleased you enjoyed your evening Triangle, hope you had a fab time in the States Lotte and yaa boo sucks to barclaycard Mbaz
