morning everyone :wave: had a rare lay in today :j. Just sipping a coffee and here I am! I am dead on my feet at the moment, getting up for work is torture! 5 more working days between me and 9 days off, and 3 of those are lates :eek: on the plus side thats 3 days when I don't have to get up at 6!

Going to get my butt into gear and go to the running shop and get the shop person to test what kind of running shoes I need (when I was running a couple of months ago after 4 runs my knees & feet were hurting), going to check the weather forecast before I buy them though as if it is predicted to keep raining I will postpone buying them! time has slipped away from me, will have to do tomorrow...

ok if I'm gonna do the above I better get a move on!

• [STRIKE]quick bath [/STRIKE](still no shower hose :mad:)
• [STRIKE]make sure plugs are switched off at the socket[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]make lunch from stores[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]make spag bol in sc[/STRIKE]
• drive carefully to & from work
• [STRIKE]charge phone at work[/STRIKE]
• call npower & ask why on earth I have received a "final" reminder for £118 when I never received a first reminder & we pay by dd :mad:
• do exercise dvd after work (I too need to loose 10 lbs!;))
• finish book tonight
• [STRIKE]collect dahli lama book from library [/STRIKE]:D
• [STRIKE]check banking[/STRIKE]

Well I've just managed to make my meal planners up to the middle of September and done a draft shopping list and I'm actually quite impressed! And I ordered my new tax disc as it runs out at the end of August but I had saved up over the last 3 months for it

Good morning everyone,

Well its miserable monday!!! Summer where is summer... and I have so much washing to do!!! Anyway cant control the weather will just need to make do!!

Just catching up on an episode of 'Spendaholics'!! Its great along with Bank of mum and dad.. dont know if any of you have seen them but they are both interesting! Shown on Really!

Well Monday is the start of the week, day hasnt gone quiet to plan however I am feeling better and more motivated than last week so thats a start!!! Pay day on Wednesday which will be my change of attitude!!! It has to be done! I am out of control and need to change!!! Sorry if I am boring you all, just need to keep writing these things and telling myself these things...

Today, I have already been bad, managed to get a last minute gp appointment and instead of walking I drove as was running late and its about a 10 minute walk!! How bad is that... what a waste of petrol! On the other hand I did decide against buying a lovely sandwich from the local bakery and will eat something from the store cupboard! Even though it will be something which wont go with what I am having.... I resisted the sandwich so havent spent the money!

The rest of the day I need to be productive.... ooo the sun is coming out, wont risk putting washing out!

My list:

* start sorting through the hallway cupboard and see what rubbish is in there, sorting - filing - chucking! sorting - filing - chucking!!

* sort some more bits out for Ebay - photo - write description - store!

* drink more in the bid to produce more milk to express for store to save pennies on formula (sorry boys)

* lunch, dinner and snacks from stores!! need to use whats in the cupboard!

* START BUDGET!! LOOK AT PREVIOUS BUDGETS INCLUDING BANK STATEMENT AND WORK OUT A NEW BUDGET!

* Organise diary for the week to include 'free exercise' and use of clothes horse AKA 'exercise bike'

Well i think that is it for now! Have a great day!

I'm quite suprised at how much I have managed to get done this morning as I seemed to be faced with one problem after another.

I have even developed a new blog which I actually did not intend doing until later this week http://selfemployedfreelancewriter.blogspot.com/

I'm going to get a quick lunch and then I will see what else I can get done and hopefully complete my list today :j
