Another qualifier bet done which will get me a free £10 bet in a couple of days, hopefully meaning £7ish profit

Ah, so back from a lovely walk, it was only 5 miles but was lots of hills so I do feel like I've had a good walk today I took my pedometer with me and I have done 15,438 steps :j :j I also took my flask full of coffee so didn't spend anything on drinks / snacks while we were out

I had a nice hot bath when I got home, have just eaten something and had a cup of tea, Bournemouth won 3-0 today to go 2nd in the league :T and all in all its been a damn good day

Spends today = £5 towards petrol (friend wanted to do a particular walk that was blinking miles away ), and £5.20 on 6 selection boxes and 2 bread rolls. The selection boxes have a fudge, caramel, crunchie, flake, small packet of buttons and a small dairy milk bar in them and were reduced to 75p :beer: I allow myself one bar of choccy each night out of my ww points, and ds likes most of them too, so this is a much cheaper way of buying treats than normal chocolate

This evening is going to be very relaxed, some pottering, maybe an online food shop, a bit of telly and an early night

Hi Benben it looks like you are going great guns on thematch betting etc. I joined weight watchers yesterday and I am off tomorrow to see if I can spot reduced selection boxes, the small bars are a good idea.

My thumping head has retiurned, I like to believe its all those nasty toxins leaving my system, but it may just be that I'm tired

So, I have emptied the dishwasher, hung up one load of washing and put another load in, swept the kitchen floor, polished everything in the lounge, tidied away all the dvds into their proper boxes and returned several bits to ds bedroom from the lounge. Now though I'm in bed looking forward to a nice couple of hours on the lappy

Morning all, headaches gone, I had a decent sleep again last night (about 10.5 hours ), and feel wide awake again this morning :j

Todays plan is a nice easy one; finishing off the housework which shouldn't take too long, lounge is all clean and tidy just needs hoovering, bathroom needs a clean, quick flick with the duster and hoover in the bedrooms and a quick clean in the kitchen Then I need to go to Tescos, and other than that its just general pottering and looking forward to ds coming home at 3

Back from Tescos, I spent £57 today :eek: however that did include a new mascara (£5) as mine has literally dried up its so old, and that will come out of my general day-to-day budget rather than the food budget. I also got loads of proper meals rather than just a trolley of processed junk I am now fully stocked on everything I think and am going to try not to spend any money until next weekend :eek: (other than weightwatchers but thats already budgeted for). The fridge is bursting, the cupboards are full, plenty of non-doet treats for ds, so hopefully it will be possible The food budget is rapidly disappearing this month so I need to stop spending anyway!

Right, just had some toast and a yoghurt and a cup of coffee, now time to crack on and finish the housework

One more qualifying bet done that should make me about a fiver in all

benbenandme

Dusting and hoovering is done, dishwasher and washing machine have had all their filters cleaned and are both just running through on empty to clear them out of any gunk Just the bathroom and kitchen left to clean

I'm getting peckish again now so may stop and have some lunch.

Ben ben wish that I had your enthusiasm I am at home alone and really need to get on with tidying and housework, yet cannot get motivated, it is just me and hubbie at mo, and still cannot get ontop of things, we are hoping to have an addtional to our family pretty soon a boy in the age range of 2 - 5 so really need to get sorted and organised but the laptop keeps calling me and I end up doing not a lot, the dog is patiently waiting to go out, am thinking of taking him down the beach later but really just feel lethargic, where do you get your energy and motivation I really wish I had some.
