Hi mummy,
Well done on the freebies....feel your pain with the gas/electic bill, mind you it has been pretty cold the last few weeks.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend.

Afternoon Diary,
Monday already :cool:!! This weeks are marching on far too quickly for my liking!!!
So yesterday we took DD1 to her swimming lesson, DH insisted on both girls having new swimming hats and DD2 need some googles so that messed up my NSD :mad:!! Today is NSD5 though :A.
We had the girls godmother round for tea but then we were naughty later on and had a curry :cool:! Today I have started on my healthy eating, ive been tiptoeing round the subject for a few weeks now but I really need to get my @rse into gear and sort myself out!!!
Just popped into town to post some cheques for work and cashed in my free cafe nerro loyalty card! Ive got to have a bit of a treat and especially when its free.
Last night my ebay items and ended and 4/7 were sold and paid for. Ive brought them to work with me and packaged them up here. Will take to the post office tomorrow morning. 1 of the items is being collected tomorrow. So ive probably made about £20 which I am putting towards the girls some new coats. Just watching a couple on ebay before I go spend £20 each on them!
Think thats all from me. Hope everyones ok xxMummytogirls x0 -
Morning Diary,
Just a quick catch up as im working from home today as I have a school event to attend this morning.
My ebayer collected the toy last night and I was actually sad to see it go what a loser haha!!! I think its just the realisation that my babies arent interested in these kind of things anymore... sniff!!! Already spent some of that money buying DD1 a coat on ebay. Am watching a few now for DD2. If can I get their coats out of the money from things I sold, I will be very happy.
Today will be a spend day as I need eggs for pancakes tonight!
Think thats all from me, hope everyones ok. 2 weeks til paydayxx

Morning Diary,
Happy Valentines Day!!!!
DH bought me some roses for Valentines, I havent bought him anything oopppsss!!! I will be cooking for him this evening but I dont know what! I was supposed to call to the butchers this week but I havent had the car with the snow and its not in walking distance. Going to have to have a good thing about what I can buy locally... theres only the coop!!

12 days til payday... hurry up payday I want to pay another debt off in full :rotfl: xxMummytogirls x0 -
Afternoon Diary,
What a lovely sunny day it is today, I was thinking early I bet I could have some washing out today!!!
Just popped out at lunch as DD2 has a party tomorrow and I needed to buy a present. His mum said he likes games and stuff so I popped to ELC as I remember at half term they have deals on stuff like that. Picked up one game half price at £6 then realised they had some other things on offer for 2 for £10 and DD has another party in 2 weeks so opted for that instead!
Also got DD2 some socks and DD1 some school tights. Ive had this whinge before but im having it again... £9 for school tights :eek: but ive learnt my lesson by buying cheap ones that fall down and buying twice anyway!!!
Nothing much to report, just glad its payday. Hope everyones ok xxMummytogirls x0 -
Hi mummy,
That's a good buy from the ELC.:)
I'm hoping I can peg out over the weekend......I'm getting withdrawal symptoms.;)

Morning Diary,
Wow Monday already!! I think I say this everyweek but actually how on earth did that happen?!
So what have I been up to since Friday?!
Friday night I popped to the butchers after work and bought some nice pieces of fillet steak, mushrooms etc. We had that for tea and it was gorgeous!
Then I did the shopping at Mr M's and spent £58 but I got loads so I dont mind that when I feel like ive got a lot for my money!!
Saturday DH cleaned the house whilst I took DD2 to a party.
Then we went to the cinema to see Wreck it Ralph as DD2 had been nagging to see it. We had cinema vouchers for DH and I, but it still cost £6.10 each for the kids!! DH nearly had a heart attack haha!!! I took sweets and drinks, but we did buy some popcorn... it wouldnt be right not to imo!!!
Then we went to [EMAIL="Fr@nkie"]Fr@nkie[/EMAIL] and Bennys for tea... what an absolute dissapointment. I havent been for a while but it seems now more like fast food, I kid you not the food was on our table within 5 minutes. It really threw me!! Wont be going there again, totally unsatisfying to spend £40 and it be rubbish.
Yesterday I took DD1 to her swimming lesson and then went off to the FREE spa day with my friend!! It was nice and relaxing, its a 2 day pass so were back off there tonight haha!!!
Then we all ended up going for a 3 course curry deal at the local restaurant... cant believe how much money we have spent eating out, want to kick myself as thats £80 we could have saved over this week but the curry was nice so going to go easy on myself hahaha!!!
Over the weekend I have done no washing what so ever, but Friday morning my basket was empty. This morning totally overflowing and I now have 4 full washes of different colours... how on earth does that happen?!
Im at work all day today but tomorrow and Thursday im working from home and Wednesday looks like a nice day so I am definitely pegging out for those days.
Alice I bet youve pegged out havent you haha!!!
Hope your better now Steph, just going to have a quick round up of diaries in a min.
So there you have it expensive but fab weekend. Payday in 8 days haha!!!! xx

Morning mummy, sounds as though you had a nice weekend, even if it was a bit spendy.
My washing basket is the same, the minute i turn my back on it it is overflowing.
Have a good day.0 -
We've had one of those spendy weekends too...eek.
As for washing and ironing I'm in training for the washing and ironing olympics, going for gold!!:D
Hope the trip to the Spa has recharged your batteries. Can't believe its 8 days til your payday.....another month nearly gone. xxDMP with CCCS started Jan12 £34,906 Jan13 £31,893 Jan14 £26,836 Jan15 £21,894 Jan16 £16,839 Jan17 £14,415 Jan19 £12,938ish Jan19 £9,649 Jan20 £6612 Feb 21 0 Self managed from Jan'17
