good spend day today, 99p on toothpaste although it is gross and tastes salty (is a foreign one) think i will have to buy another tomorrow in town! :mad:
got some bargains in teso as my coffee was 2 for £5 and fishfingers were only 99p per box as were half price. bought 4 boxes which will prob last 3 months! was working from home and then did an audit and crisp job
so plans for tomorrow are-- upload crisp pics
- pay in cheque
- do mystery shop
- buy toothpaste
- post solicitors details
- cancel mobile insurance
- look for ppi, sickness cover etc... for mortgage and see how much it costs
- tidy room, maybe clean if can be bothered
- go to gym and swim after
- start new surveys
- if i am desperate maybe do some ironing
- do mini audit
- do mystery shop
- buy food i need for next few days (not much
)
- go and look at house again with mum to take measurements for curtains, blinds, appliances under counter etc...
- try on wedding outfits (things i already have)

Hi Clippy,
Just dropping on to say hi and to see how you are!
Smilerwoman0 -
:hello:hi smilerwoman, thanks for dropping by, i am ok thanks!
not got much to update, had survey back and appears to be a problem with chimney and boiler so need to investigate furtherbut had contract sent through so thats good (although not signing till those issues sorted).
got £23 left dispite a few cherry cake shaped hiccupsand is end of my week tomorrow. going for curry for leaving do so hope to only spend £15 and have £10 to carry forward. know i will need more next week as is weddings on thur/fri so that will be expensive. means i will have to be stricter week after :eek:
need to finish ms report and go to sleep as v tired. will update tomorrow if anything interesting happens! if not will do it sunday when i am back and recovered! :A:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j0 -
so the weddings are over
both ceremonies were very good, one in the temple was certainly something different! just back in the hotel now after the reception, bit tipsy! was a free bar all night which was very generous :beer:
i withdrew an extra £20 this week as the weekly budget would not be enough but due to free bar and all the lovely curry i scoffed i still have £24.81 left :T i will make sure this lasts me until wed night so can start next week afresh. think might try and do £30 budget for next two weeks and then i will be sqaure at end of monthi can try anyway!
so plans for this weekend! not much tomorrow as need to drive back and took 4.5 hrs on way down :eek: that was 1.5 hrs more than it should have and i had 10 mins in hotel to get ready before i had to leave for station! once i get back i am going to hopefully do a little bit on my surveys and then i need to do my audit. then i am off to friend from works party but i am going to try as she lives out of the city.
so sun and mon i would like to-- complete surveys (except for phone calls)
- read through solicitors paperwork
- sort out online billing for my mobile as i think i might be able to reduce the tariff now i am half way through contract
- research and pick buildings insurance
- research ppi and sickness cover for mortgage
- change bedding
- sort out and put wedding pics on fb
- attempt to sort out bags and shoes with a view to getting rid of some
:j
off to bed now to watch gossip girl and have a nice long sleep:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j0 -
