1. List 3 items on Ebay or put 3 items in the charity box/bin I can't list them because of not being around to answer questions over the weekend, but I'll sort more books out.
2. Make all today's meals from what you have in already great, I have a mackerel that I bought yesterday to have.
3. Pay an extra £1.29 onto a debt payment/into the savings pot I emptied my purses and did my online savings pot last night so don't have anything left to put in!
4. Do 15mins of something that leaves you out of breath 15 mins is a bit too much for me but I'll use the pedal exerciser for a bit.
5. Pay something forward need to think about that.
6. Do one thing you've been putting off will do some writing, I've been putting off typing up the latest draft.
7. Start your September food plan done - my plan is to eat from the freezer as much as possible.
8. Do one thing JUST FOR YOU I will do but I need to think about what.

Phew, those weren't as bad as I expected!

1. List 3 items on Ebay or put 3 items in the charity box/bin. I will do this later, as I think today and tomorrow is a free listing day.
2. Make all today's meals from what you have in already. I've got two freezers full of food, so I'm spoilt for choice!
3. Pay an extra £1.29 onto a debt payment/into the savings pot I emptied purse last night of change.
4. Do 15mins of something that leaves you out of breath. I washed up, hoovered and did some washing, does that count?
5. Pay something forward, I'm two months ahead on the water bill, I pay by monthly instalments.
6. Do one thing you've been putting off, hmm that could open up a whole can of worms!
7. Start your September food plan, will leave that for my OH to do!
8. Do one thing JUST FOR YOU, I might have to have a bath later, with a lush bathbomb

Thank you for the thought provoking challenge Luc, how are you feeling today?

Bewarned I'm going to have a bit of a rant. My OH was meant to go and see recruitment agencies today, however he got himself in such a state last night that he was ill, so he's not going! I think also he's realised that he's not oging to get a job by the end of September/October as he thought!! And he's considering asking for his old job back.

Also he's purchased a car, I'm not too bothered about that as I know he needs a car.

1. List 3 items on Ebay or put 3 items in the charity box/bin - I got rid of my charity shop pile and sold lots of bits last week so shall declutter the utility room cupboards instead.
2. Make all today's meals from what you have in already - Was going to pop out for potatoes and veg but will get some gammon out of the freezer for a cheesy pasta bake instead.
3. Pay an extra £1.29 onto a debt payment/into the savings pot - A £2 coin went into the pot this morning.
4. Do 15mins of something that leaves you out of breath - Shall be popping out for a wander along the cliffs later but will go the long way round that involves a nice hill start.
5. Pay something forward - Have sorted out a huge bag of tatt and emptied out my filing cabinet ready for Mum and Dad to take home with them tomorrow when they visit.
6. Do one thing you've been putting off - Will phone and make hair appointments for DD's and me
7. Start your September food plan - Will do this, this afternoon/evening and get an online order lined up with everything I need for the month (bar fresh bits)
8. Do one thing JUST FOR YOU

Hmmm....there's nothing I need or want to do "just for me" today.


Morning all - Luc - thanks for the challenge - really do need to focus on septembers meal plan so today's as good a day as any.

Morning all - grumpy, confused Bookie today.

WTC say they overpaid me and want £176.87 back.

A cheque has been paid into my bank for exactly the amount I pay for the shop loan. Payment went out on 5th and I know it didn't bounce so don't know what that is all about. I do miss that confused smilie.
