Friday 24th September - What small DFW things will you be doing today?!

petepetepete

I'm not sure I've read the text at the top of this post before. It's good points all, esp considering I've got an expensive weekend coming up...

I have:
- Told my sister we're eating at home when she comes to stay, rather than going out for a meal
- Arranged with the friends we're meeting tonight to go to a food festival rather than the trendy (and pricey) gastro-pub they wanted to
- Bought the cheapest fan at Argos, rather than any of the more tempting expensive-looking ones

Morning all:) last day of my mat leave today DD already at nursery, on a brighter note she didn't cry when I left her this morning list for today:
Currently on train to London to have lunch with old friend. Booked tickets in advance and got free paper from station
Going to see jimmy Carr tonight, will park on my office so no cost there
Bought magazine with me so I'm not tempted to buy one
Use time on train to think of Christmas presents for people
Try and contact the company who ordered my breakfast bar leg from, it's gone AWOL:cool: if it doesn't arrive today mate won't be able to fit it tomorrow. If I'd does arrive need to move dining table and asssociated piles of stuff to make room
Gave sis 2 more boxes of stuff for her to sell for me at carboot this weekend

Think that's about it. Have a great day everyone

2) Collect a free Orla Kiely water bottle from Robert Dyas ( as seen on Grabbit)

Sorry to quote myself but I just managed to pick up one of these each for B and myself. They are really pretty, and were on sale elsewhere in the shop for £7.99 each!

ETA - sorry, should have said Freebies board not Grabbit. Ooops!

redsam, can you see if there are any cleaning/waitressing/bartending jobs around just to make ends meet before you "real" job comes along? If I couldn't find work in the areas I want to work in I'd be prepared to do anything to reduce stress & anxiety. hth x

Hiya...I am looking for evening/weekend work, as if I am not available for Supply work in the day, wont get it! Where I live there isnt much at the mo but do appreciate the suggestion.

Hey folks busy busy busy but not achieved too much. Have an infection and as a result brain is not functioning as it should - very chaotic in my head today

La esc have a great time , Jonno7 its hard leaving them isn't it I paid an arm and a leg for my DDs nursery but it was excellent , she loved it and I was reassured by the fact she was well looked after.

My list for today :

• Check on line banks - ok payday monday
• rang to make balance transfer to 0% card but offer now finished.
• find details for old CC that I meant to close that is now offering 0% balance transfer
• borrowed some books from library
• Did some research on internet :rotfl:
• Won a lipstick with flake bought cheap at B+M
• Sent DDs solicitor email rather than post letter
• Start a list for online shopping
• start taking photos for listing on ebay tommorow
• Think whether I can raise 3k sponsership by february to take part in a trek for charity.

Had a phone call from a freind I wasn't expecting to see for a while , she has bookings at a restraunt that was featured by Gordon Ramsey a couple of weeks ago. Its murder to get a table there since the programme aired but she is taking me sunday - yummmy
