To be frugal, you need to spend money wisely, simply spending less is not enough.If you can't handle me at my worst then you don't deserve me at my best...Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the little voice at the end of the day that says I will try again tomorrow.0 -

Absolutely. It's only taken him most of his life to realise that you shouldn't spend money you don't have. We went to MrM's together (quite useful for him to see how much things cost), he carried the shopping inside and I unpacked. I had a quick supper and we went to bed with a bottle of wine. Wish all Fridays were like that. While he was at work I also tidied up the LR and made a start on the kitchen. For the first time I feel like I might actually win this battle, even though it will take a long time. I have told the kids that I won't consider having another cat until at least all floors are decluttered.
Going to have a look at the list now.0 -

Hi All,
Im sorry - Ive fallen so far behind with the thread this week, /i havent been able to keep up - again! Sorry.
Woofit has still been sick everyday so has ended up back at the Vet - he got a big needle and special dog food so has finally stopped puking.
The good news is though, my mum and sister are finally home!!!
My mum was flown home business class so she was pleased....:D My sister was slightly jealous though when they kept her in economy class :rotfl::rotfl:
Thank you so much for sebastians award - he really likes it, and Ive told him he has to help everyday before he can get a big twirly star. He has been very good and helped me everyday. So far today he has helped gather up all the laundry and brought it downstairs. He is going to help get the lists finished today. Hes a good boy x
