    Also:
    Started cross stitch again.
    Went on a big needle hunt - I don't have any (I don't think) so I'll either buy one or nab one off my mum this weekend.

    Hi all, have been enjoying a lazy day today. Big hugs to you today Josie x

    I have:
    1) Been to a car booty and bought a couple of bits.
    2) Went to our local country park, using our season ticket so 'free' entertainment.
    3) Advertised some bits and posted some freebies on Netmums.
    4) Cleaned up B's old bike and advertised it on Gumtree.
    5) Painted up a coat rack, using an old tester pot that was in my garage.
    6) Checked banking, quidco did SC etc. I have £106 coming from Quidco this month :eek:!
    Not much for a bank holiday, but not feeling very motivated.
    See you tomorrow, L x

    Hi everyone, :wave: my first time posting here but I've been reading for a while! - just wanted to join in on all the fun chat! :D

    Today I have:
    - checked banking online - could be worse!
    - checked when i can pick up parcel (attempted delivery on saturday) - not open today so will have to be Thurs i think :(
    - made own breakkie to take to work (i start at 7am so too early to eat at home)
    - made lunch to take too
    - not dried hair with hairdryer (tho i think this is more likely because im lazy as opposed to DFW!) :D
    - charged phone and ipod at work instead of at home


    Think that's all for now, it'll be interesting to see how much i get done/don't get done!!!

    Hope everyone has a good day and hugs are available for those who'd like/need one!

    :D

    Today i still need to:
    - have a trial NSD in prep for first month of NSD starting tomorrow! - nothing spent so far :) (it's now 5.45pm and still no spends!)
    - work hard at work - [STRIKE]will come back to this![/STRIKE] I did it but it was touch and go!
    - sort out my clicking!
    - enjoy breakkie and lunch! - BIG TICK!
    - learn how to pitch my friend's tent so i can have a DFW/MSE holiday! - done!
    - tidied my room and sort out the washing from yesterday - done!
    - water plants on windowsill (tomatoes, lettuce, cucumbers and some herbs)
    - eat from leftovers in fridge for dinner - done (v yummy too!)

    Updated a couple of bits here and there, still [STRIKE]a fair bit to do today though! [/STRIKE] some left to do - just plant watering and sorting out clicking :)
    Those that matter don't mind, and those that mind don't matter :o

    Have sold another 2 items on ebay today - only totalling £11.24 profit (plus P&P) but better than them just sitting in the cupboard like they have been for the past year!
    Have also listed another batch so fingers crossed!

    Following in La E's footsteps I have also rejoined the NSD challenge for June - I'm going for 10 this month - I've never managed 10 before (averaging 6) so I'll try extra hard to get there in June. Promise!
