My list for today!


I have already:

• run dishwasher and washing machine at 5.30am using cheap rate electricity
• hung washing outside to dry
• got vegetable stew in slowcooker using woopsied stew pack and veg from the allotment
• prepared a packed lunch to take to allotment
• checked for surveys (none yet )
• checked on-line banking - loan PPI have paid in two months which they originally sent to wrong bank and another payment going in on Friday. Yay, can afford to eat this month!!!

I will also try to:

• phone council for up to date statement of my rent (I've lost track )
• go to allotment to finish beds I started yesterday
• do AT LEAST two hours in the sewing room and get some work done! (or procrastinate as usual!!)

Hi everyone :wave:

Strange day here weather-wise - started off looking a bit overcast but then I ended up getting really warm in my winter coat walking to work and now looks like it might rain! The joys of spring!

I'm hoping for an NSD today and so far I've managed a few other wee things and hoping for a few more before the end of the day:

- tied my hair up so didn't use the hairdryer or straightners and used freebie tinted moisturiser :cool:
- hoping for a slow cooked extravaganza at home
- leftovers for lunch at work. mmm, tasty.
- look into travel and accommodation options for going to my friend's wedding in the summer
- read the MSE email
- pay outstanding electricity bill!!
- catch up with some TV later on and hoping for an early night

Didn't get round to doing the wedding invite inserts yesterday as I left work with a killer headache and really wasn't in the mood so I'll hopefully get them done tonight too.

Today i have

Used my new slow cooker for the first time!!! :eek: Cooking a casserole which will have another for 2 meals so i can freeze one for next week! (panicky that the slow cooker is going to burn the hosue down while i work though!!!! LOL)
Had weetabix for lunch as i have a box in my office drawer so cheap lunch
Checked banking to find i have a fair bit more than i expected and had forgotten about my other account with £120 in as there is no council tax
Paid £200 off my next account!! This was with ebay funds!! Have £300 left which i think i will be able to pay off this month and then i am £50 better off each month!!!

Not bad so far

I hope everyone else is having a good day!

Well, I've skived off college this morning - am going in for the afternoon though:o BUT...I sat at the laptop and finished an assignment...it's rubbish I think, but as long as it is a pass, that's fine. Marks don't count as yet, just need to pass it. So, successful morning for me:beer:

And booo to St Patrick's Day....tis my wedding anniversary hahaa, so I can never forget it! Oh well, in about 2 weeks the divorce will be through....onwards eh?!?!:T:T

OK, off to finish lunch and get to college, tempting as it is to stay here:p

i'm flying in today to say a quick hello.. Am doing overti tonight an finishing late - doing tomorrow and friday too and already feel tired. Am going to have 2 weeks of no overtime at easter... and try and make my house and garden look less of a pig sty!!
Its a good job i'm working lots as just pricd up fencing ( dogs have ruined) and it going to be expensiv - B and Q have 20 % off and my partners dad is going to drive 2.5 hours on saturday to come and fit it for us for free - bless him ! Will mean dogs can use their dog flap again while i'm at work. The cost of the fencing may put my end of loan date back to july and i was really hoping to clear it by june... but i love my doggies and i do not want them escaping - I can do another month. Its not like i'd be ou of debt by then anyway - its just one lon in amongst lots of debt!!
