Sat 1st/Sun 2nd May - What small DFW things have you done today?

WelshWoofer

Morning all! Nice and sunny but quite chilly here. No sign of the downpours predicted yet!

Today we're off to a christening of our best friends little girl - its a Cathloic church thing (never been to one of those before) followed by a "do" in the local rugby club, so an afternoon (at least!) out!

We're getting a lift there and will get a taxi home but it will be shared with another friend so hopefully won't be too expensive. I'm recycling a frock and wrap I wore to a wedding last year that hasn't been out of the wardrobe since so managed to get away without buying something new that I wouldn't wear again.


Not a lot else planned for the day as I'm not sure what time we'll be back but I have/will...

• Walked the dog for free exercise
• All food from stores
• Free buffet this afternoon
• Checked banks (pay day this week - hurrah!)
• Do a bit of prep for interview on Thursday (yes another one!)
• Clean car this morning
• Iron wrap thing for christening (looks a bit cold to me though!)
• One load of washing

That's about it - have a good day!

Morning all :hello:

Thanks Littlekel - after reading your post, I decided to have egg on toast for breakfast this morning too - and it was delicious!

Grey and chilly here - boo! But feeling really good, got through so much revision yesterday and am really pleased with myself!

My list looks a little like this:

• Have updated and adjusted spending diary
• NSD
• Washing is on at 30
• Yummy breakfast!
• Stick to SW and meal plan all day
• Friends coming over at 10am for a study session - tea and milk at the ready!
• Walk pup for free excerise
• Wash dining room floor - again, free excerise!
• DH getting home later this afternoon - get him to mow lawn if not raining
• Need to do two observation write ups for work placement - didn't get round to doing this yesterday
• Chill out tonight

Lots of love
T

Morning all :wave:

Well it's dry here today, for now at least, so I've already got the washing on the line. I'm hoping to get another load done quite soon too as we're off to visit my aunty later today and won't be back til late tomorrow. I definately need to get all the uniforms washed, dried and ironed before we leave .

With this is mind, here's my list:

• Check bank & update spreadsheet
• Surveys
• Should be a NSD
• Food from stores or at my Auntys, although we're taking some food with us
• HC & line dry
• Ironing
• Enter some comps
• Put some bits on ebay before leaving this afternoon
• Visit my Mam - will walk there to get some free exercise

Thanks for mentioning the software Cleo I'd forgotten about that, it could well be the problem. I'm writing up the 'other way round' today. Writing straight onto the Forum, but will take a copy and put into Word incase it times out before I finish .

Just wanted to add that April was the first month I officially joined this thread and it's made such a difference! My biggest challenge has always been to check bank & update my spreadsheets regularly. Seeing this at the top of the list has made me take action every (well nearly every ) day, meaning that for the first time ever, we've lived within our means :D. I'm really chuffed to bits! It's not been easy, but also not been as hard as I thought. But the best bit is that for the first time in ages, we've reduced our net debt :D:D. There's still a very long way to go...so I'll be here for ages ....but I finally feel like it can be done. THANK YOU ALL !

Phew....that went on a bit!

Been

PS - guess what? It timed out before I managed to post ha ha :rotfl:

Morning ladies! Opps afternoon even! so it is raining cats nd dogs here and I have to make up my mil's alpine trough today as its her birthday today!Going to have to go and get the soil and either do it in the kitchen or in the rain so I can drop it off later that will teach me for being lazy!


My dd was acting very bizarrely last night, stayed up till 6am (she got hold of my ds's friend's phone and was calling ppl all night and has caused a load of trouble for ds). She's such a worry to me, the earlier she can be assessed by the mental health team the earlier she can start getting the right support. My ds is fuming and it will be all I can do today to keep the peace
