124»

Comments

  • Oh boy think I am struggling today so here goes:
    • Kept out of the way whilst my dearest OH bakes 2 cakes
    • Walked the St Bernard and Springer spaniel
    • Completed one survey
    • Still waiting to have my mystery shopping visit from yesterday confirmed
    • Managed a NSD for the first time in ages
    Still to do:
    • Package up Ebay parcels from the weekend sales - not done oops
    • Finish the pile of ironing that appears to grow without even washing anything - not started oops
    • Cook Tea - that was good
    • so much other stuff that I should probably go an do it rather than typing about it! (lol) - ummm
    Have a great day everyone

    However on the bright side I have this evening:
    1. completed an online Market Research think I had forgotten about and got a £10 love2shop voucher
    2. Got around to joining one poll and with sign up bonus have reached £2.95
    3. started daily clicks on topcasback and got 7p - maybe not life changing yet that one
    now where is that ironing pile

  • Today I have...made lunch to take to work, not spent any money at all, and had dinner at my mums rather than get a quick take away :-)
  • Can I join in please, I'll probably be rubbish at updating in the morning but it will do me good to remind myself what I actually do (if that makes sense).

    Today I have:

    Left the washing on the line to dry out, despite the rain.
    Pack lunches for DS and I.
    Managed M's present from freebees and vouchers.
    Stayed at work lunchtime, away from the shops.
    Made DH do tea from the cupboard and stop moaning about the lack of onions :rotfl:

    Such a massive step away from where we were.
    This time I haven't smoked since 6th Jan 2014 and still going ok.
    Fingers crossed x

    Thanks, I don't mind doing my best but I just can't see the point of bringing the washing in when it's wet. The sun will come back out soon - I'm sure. Either that or DH is going to run out of jeans :rotfl:

  • Evening all

    Late from me but it's been a busy day. Today I have -
    • Had a low spend day
    • transferred cc to 0%
    • cut up the 0% card and set up a DD to pay it off in large chunks :D - this is finally going to end!
    • Made a draught excluder:D
    • Did all the wee jobs around the house that needed done, hopefully helping to reduce winter heating bills ( I don't think Tutankhamun's tomb was sealed as well as my house is now :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:)
    • Bought a christmas present in Tesco at half price
    Not very much here but all of it helps I think.

    Bye for now
