• [STRIKE]going to watch the regatta tomorrow[/STRIKE] kinda did...
• [STRIKE]sign up for August GC[/STRIKE] July's GC was £309.56/£330 was lucky because I assumed I would be well within this & bought a wok & a new frying pan out of this moneny before the end of the month!
• have worked out debt repayments and have brought my DFD forward another month so hopefully if I continue I will be in the black in Oct! :j

Am having such a fab weekend, no stress just relaxing & fun. Went & played tennis for an hour which was fab (and exhausting!). And saw a flying display at the regatta :T

Just sitting down now, while the dinner is cooking, about to read for a bit, have a bath & pluck my eyebrows.

This weekend was just what I needed :j

- [STRIKE]Check weather report and hang HC on line if I can[/STRIKE]
- [STRIKE]Do any straggling HC inc towels[/STRIKE]
- Do any ironing, not much I don't think
- [STRIKE]Tidy through and hoover through, not too much to do[/STRIKE]
- Clean bathroom
- Try and attack shed to get ready for log delivery, they didn't come yesterday so might come today

Not a lot today, purely because I don't have a lot to do!

Jx

So I also
- spent £12 :eek: on headlice lotion and a comb for DD's hair, never had to do this before so just asked for the best stuff and paid...think I was had!
- put said "magic shampoo" on DD's hair, she didn't struggle at all but wants it washed out now and can't do til the morning
- hoofed out my car
- cut back the roses that fell away from the porch with the wind and rain a few weeks back
- Checked banking

I have not managed to get everything done today but I am going to call it a night. I'm not feeling too well tonight I have managed to get pretty bad sun burn at the boot sale whilst it was nice weather. I am off to drink some water and get an early night.
