Evening Diary,

Just catching up on here whilst DH is out cycling.

Had a lazy NSD today, 2nd in a row woohoo!!! My sister came round with my nephew so thats kept the kids entertained for a few hours. Going out to my friends tomorrow though as the kids are going stir crazy now and im ready for leaving as DD2 is driving me up the wall!!!!

Cleaned the bathrooms and went round with the hoover this morning, this evening though you wouldnt believe id done anything surprise surprise.

Done a few surveys on 0nepoll and im now up to £33.20. Hopefully they will keep putting surveys on there for me to get to payout level.

Hope all ok xx

Sounds like some good days being had, I love camping for the fact that I can truly switch off and not think about things that need doing in the house!

Hope 1poll picks up nicely, I've just requested a payout and nearly at £5 again already. yay.

Have a good day tomorrow.

This is what I was going to say. I requested it last week and I am at £5.25 today so far

Thanks ladies, hopefully if I keep up with them then I will be able to request payout in a week or so. Im at £33.35 today.

So last night around 9pm I realised we had only a tiny bit of milk left. Instead of panic buying at that time since I would be going shopping today anyway I made sure we had bread for toast and told everyone thats what they were having!!! They seemed ok with that... well they didnt have much choice as I wasnt going at 9pm for milk! DH was like whats going on havent we got any money or something!! I was like well whats the point in buying now when im shopping tomorrow anyway.

We were round at a friends this morning and the kids had lunch there so that saved me having to buy any bread!!!! We popped to the farmshop on the way home and spent about £25 on steak, meatballs, eggs, milk, sausages and a few other bits. Will do a biggish shop at Mr M's tonight as I have a £4 off voucher.

Thats about all from me! Hope all ok xx

Well done on holding out on going for milk.:). I'm getting better I normally go into blind panic if the fridge/cupboards start to look bare.

Hope the surveys come through. Have a great day.

Afternoon Diary,

Just spent half an hour or so doing surveys on 0nepoll and im now at £34.75!! I cant believe how many surveys are updated on there daily.

So today ive been busy with the kids, weve been doing some activities at home this morning and then had a trip to the park this afternoon. Theyre now playing out, ive finished my ironing, put some towels and underwear away and hoovered and polished the middle floor.

Weve got some steak for tea and whilst that is cooking I will hoover the bottom floor of the house and it will stay looking pristine approx 5 seconds with the kids around!!!

Alice, it does get easier over time to look past the bare cupboards to what you actually have got in doesnt it! My cupboards are now restocked as I spent £61 in Mr M's last night! This also included £14 on a school coat for DD2 so I dont think I did bad.

Ive also had a load of washing line dried today and the weather for the next 2 days isnt looking too bad so will get more pegged out whilst I can!!

Payday is on Tuesday woohooo!!! Ive got an appt at Cl@rks with the kids on Tuesday to get their school shoes... that will be a pretty penny spent in there im sure. I will also get socks and tights whilst im down there and then I think im pretty much sorted for them going back to school.

Right think thats all from me. Hope all ok xx

Afternoon Diary,

Just having a quick catch up. So it was really sunny here this morning, managed to get a load of washing line dried... now its chucking it down again. This weather makes me really :mad:.

Me and the kids have been down into the village, they used some of their money to buy some sweets and then we had a quick trip to the park. Today will be a NSD.. no 3 this week.

HM chicken goujons, wedges and beans for tea.

Also still doing well on 0nepoll, now up to £35.70.

Happy weekend everyone xx

Afternoon Diary,

Having a rare day alone as DH has popped into work and taken the girls with him. Theyre going to be out most of the day so ive decided to have a PJ day!! My kids never allow for a PJ day so making the most of it.

So ive just done my shopping online with Mr T. Was going to get it delivered but then realised im right next door on Tuesday as im taking the kids for their shoes for school so will collect and save myself the money.
I had budgeted £60 and it came in at £52 with some vouchers I have so hopefully I wont add to this and it will come in under budget.

The weather isnt that great here but its not raining so ive got a load blowing about on the line.

Think thats all from me, nothing much more to report xx

Have a lovely day to yourself, well done on rethinking the delivery for your shop. Every little helps!

Morning Diary,

Here we are yet another Monday and only 2 more full weeks off work boohooooo !!! Feels like ive been off work ages but im still enjoying my time off.

So Saturday I enjoyed the whole day lazing about with the odd bit of pottering. We had pizza for tea so that saved me cooking.

Yesterday we didnt do much except the girls swimming lessons and I felt shocking. I think ive been so busy over the past few weeks, slowed down and felt ill, its always the way isnt it.
Feeling ok today which is good.

Ive got some washing pegged out at the moment but will bring it in after lunch as rain is forecast... surprise surprise! Going to take the kids to soft play after lunch, il save money by not having lunch there and they can run off some energy and I will enjoy a cuppa in peace. We have hardly spent any money on activities over the holidays and I have £25 holiday fund money left which restarts on payday tomorrow so why not!

Chrysalis, thanks for popping in! Every little certainly does help and Mr T says it himself!!!!

Im up to £36.55 on 0nepoll hoping for lots of surveys this week to get a payout.

Nothing much to report really. Payday tomorrow, will be up and out early tomorrow as DD2 has a drs appt at 8.30am for this persistent cough she has. Then were out shoe shopping in the morning, collecting shopping and then meeting a friend in the afternoon.

Hope everyones ok xx
