Hiya everyone,
Haven't posted in a few days now.... have been sooooo bad in the last while, I really really need to get back on track. I got a 0% credit card to pay for home report; marketing fees etc as we're putting our house on the market and I've had a wee splurge on myself
.... just felt like I hadn't treated myself in so long and just caved in.
Plus my meal planner has gone to pot this month as well, 2 weeks in and I should have a freezer full of tubs of meals but it's pretty empty, don't know what's happened with that!!
This week has been ok though, got £10 amazon voucher from surveys so put that towards some Christmas pressies - 3 books ordered which cost just over £14 instead of £24 so am happy about that (and didn't put this on the CC) :T
SO - back on track now - have to be!!!! Apologies for the moans everyone
My list for today: -- HM bread (put in BM this morning before leaving for work)
- tea from stores
- breakfast and lunch into work
- phoned lawyers to get quote for selling and buying house :eek: ... not cheap!!!
- go for a run after work
- post some mail (just remembered this so will pop out in a minute)
