Great result on the boots points and the bingo wins, your doing really well for your free christmas so far. I was popping on hoping you had posted some more pics of tom. hows he getting on now? Ive never thought to tip the delivery driver panda, id be interested to know if others do. should i be feeling guilty?

I don't tip the delivery driver either. In fact it hadn't occurred to me until you mentioned it. I still won't but now it'll be another thing to feel guilty about!!

OH has taken Tom to pick DD up from Stagecoach so making the most of being able to type with two hands! He's had a bit of a grouchy week and is reluctant to be put down. Plus he's feedling loads. On the bright side, this has contributed to losing another 2lb putting me back at my pre-pregnancy weight, although don't get excited about that as it cerainly doesn't mean I'm slim! Planning to start taking Tom for a walk every day in the hope it tones up my bum and thighs a bit. Going to work on the principle that when I tell you lot about the moneysaving / housework then I feel I have to do it, so hopefully it will work with exercise. Feel free to nag if I don't mention lots of walking! Especially as after going off chocolate while pregnant it is now sneaking it's way back into my life...I've remembered why I don't buy easter eggs early when they're cheap...it's because I eat them then have to buy more at the regular price anyway. i wonder if that's Mr Badbury's plan??

Working my way through the £1 bingo sites. You know, I thought I was finished with bingo! Not having a great deal of luck though, in fact no luck at all! Maybe the weekend isn't the greatest time to do it.

My ebay stuff is up to £19.85 with the random make up items I received in the post doing quite well (£6 and £6.50). Hoping for a last minute flurry for the rest.

Anyway, i'm supposed to be putting clean clothes away so they aren't cluttering up the bedrooms so will have a quick read of some of the diaries and then I'm off!

I cant believe you have lost the weight so quickly. you must have been really good recently. You will have to put some more pics of tom up for us, i keep checking to see if you have added any. You are making me feel guilty about all the ironing ive been sat looking at for half the day, I have nearly finished sorting out mu junk room though. got loads of bits to get on ebay.

I probably do have more photos to add but don't want to bore everyone half to death any more than I already do!

Lol, don't be impressed at the weightloss. I would still need to lose about 2 stone to be at the top end of the recommended weight for my height. I think brestfeeding definitely helps with weightloss but maybe not if I continue to sit eating easter egg as I am currently doing! It's not even my easter egg - I ate that yesterday. It's OH's easter egg, how horrible am I??

And there's only lots of clean clothes to put away because I like ironing...but hate, hate, hate putting it away afterwards - it would probably look tidier if I left it in the ironing basket in the first place.

Ebay stuff creeping up, penny by penny. With just over an hour to go it's at £24.22. Got a message from someone wanting to buy 2 items that would sell for £22 if they had bids wanting to know if I would combine postage. I said yes but she hasn't bid yet.

Ebay stuff finished at just over £60 which I'm quite pleased about. And I have two of one item so hoping I can sell the other one on a second chance offer. Fingers crossed!

Hi, I'm around off and on and trying to keep up with diaries but not getting chance to post much.

Had my postnatal check yesterday and ok to drive but haven't done so yet. I slipped and fell in the bath last night and made everything a bit sore again, ouch!

Went round to school for DD'S assembly today. the letter said 9.20 so went for then to find the Headteacher started it at 9.10 and I missed DD's part. As she was leavng she slipped me her lines and said "that's so you know what II had to say". How bad did I feel? Plus DS had his options meeting with the Head on Monday and didn't even tell me so I missed that too (DS's excuse was he didn't think Icould drive there!). I must be the worst parent ever!

Still doing the £1 bingo but not with any success but Christmas fund is coming on well - will copy post from that board later

Yay, spoke too soon, just won £23.43 on the bingo.

Between OH and I, I think we would have been in trouble this month if not for that extra income as it's all been swallowed up so thanks Sea for the original email!
