    Morning.

    Pooky, hope you get the leak sorted.

    Luc, I'm not able to do most of those, but I'll have the me time and put some money in the piggy bank.

    I need to go into town to get my tablets, and I've still got £6.50 on my Starbucks card (can't actually remember when I last topped it up, so I'm getting better!) so I'll have a coffee and work on my book there.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    Morning!

    We filled the car with the new Shell "goes further" petrol and got about 40 miles more from the tank. Made sure we used the cheapest source and on the way home from work so no extra miles looking for cheap fuel! ;)



    I also tried that and got about 40 miles extra, this site is useful for finding the cheapest fuel, Shell is cheapest around here so another bonus!

    I found £1 down the back of the sofa today, into the savings/debt jar and am going into town to pick up a letter so will park on the road and walk to save a couple of quid on the usual car parking.

    Got a Mystery Shop later today too and am having a NSD, making sandwiches from the leftover Pork roast we had on Sunday, hope it doesn't poison me!

    Grey day here but dry so far.........

    Morning all - another challenge eh?
    • Complete Level 1 of today's Fly Lady tasks (on the Old Style board) or 15mins of ironing - I'll clean the bathroom tonight
    • Make your OH/kids feel special (even more so than usual) - OK :D
    • Put that extra 1p in the savings/debt payment pot - will go and make a payment in a minute
    • Jog on the spot for 5mins (or dance to fave song) - does a good walk at lunchtime count?
    • Be good to yourself and have 15mins 'me time' every 3 hours - I'll try!
    Claire, what a lovely photo, you look great :)

    I will give kids a mssive love today-I do all the time but any excuse ;)

    I have just paid an extra £5.21 of my CC just now :D

    I have started Cambridge today so thats something good just for me :)

    I have a client in about 25 mins so best get dressed, lol

    Will dance with the kids later, we love doing that.

    Have a good day everyone.
