The inflatable unicorn looks awesome what's the betting we will take it out the box in Spain and it won't inflate :rotfl:

Sent a cheeky £1 towards the holiday clothes pot so I have £107.19 :j

Kids are going away to their grans this afternoon :j so I have peace for a couple of hours before hubby gets home

Right need to go get ready as I get weighed today I have been good this week so here's hoping as I only have 4 lbs to lose and I'm back at my wedding weight

abba1772

Lost half a pound on Saturday :j I'm happy with that considering Aunt Flo showed up the same day only 3.5lbs to go

I now I have £115.82 in the account for the holiday clothes so not doing too bad I guess aiming for £200 by the end of the week :cool:

Sorted out the travel insurance got it for £15 so that's something else off my hit list just have the car parking to sort once hubby decides whichever vehicle we are taking that is xx

Should be a LSD as I have to set up playgroup then I have a stay and play session at kks nursery which I'm looking forward to

Not much else planned to be fair propbably get on with some housework xx

Put up my little target for some spending money for holiday clothes just so I have a target to work to as I find I'm work better to targets and deadlines :cool: so I'm aiming for £400 by the end of May then I can start rattling that Halifax card before we go away on holiday :T

Working 7.30am til 5.30pm today so a long shift, we are off to toddlers once abbies washload has finished and I can get I think on the line so that'll be £2 then I need bread, butter and fairy non bio so if I can spend under £10 today that'll be a bonus oh also need ham for hubby's sandwiches need to remember this xx

We plan on taking our kids to the beach tonight after we have finished work as today is the only day during the week that we will all be together so that's the plan and dinner will be out the freezer and random as we see the o be running out of food but I'm not due to do a monthly shop til next week don't know how that happened lol so yeah that's the plan, beach for about a hour and blow away the cobwebs :rotfl:

Morning :hello:

Working 7.15am til 5.30pm kids are watching paw patrol whilst I have my breakfast

Plan for today is to take the kids for a walk up to the park, hubby is off today so he's taking his cv up to a garage where he seen a job going so I need to print one off for him before we head out

Then I promised Kk we would go to McDonald's........I'm having a salad as weight in is on Saturday and I'm doing ok so far xx

Rounded down the account sent over £7 towards the holiday clothing pot..........might need to dip into the holiday savings as we need a roof rack and box think it's going to cost us £180 so instead of putting it on hubby's credit card :mad: like he was telling me I've told him to take it out the holiday spending money and we can put it back before we leave for holiday (really need to take that card off him)

Need to get dairylea dunkers and tomato sauce as requested by Kk he doesn't ask for much so need to remember to get these xx

Right off to put a washing on the line and get another in the washing machine xx

As you can see I haven't hit over the £200 mark this week but this is due to the fact we've bought a roof box for the car, was £190 but I got it for £66 from Euro car parts :T bargain so I just used my wages I would normally transfer over on a Friday to pay for I then :j so I only have to buy roof bars.......hubby has found them for £60 which I have in my regular savings account so that's it sorted and don't need to worry about having to pay back the holiday fund.

Target for next week is £300 and I will be hitting it

Hope you all have a lovely weekend

As I type my new windows and doors are being fitted :T it's chaos here and the mess :eek: omg :rotfl:

You may not have hit your target but you have saved money. Thats a win in my eyes. Well done.

New doors and windows, I'm jealous.

Hi Abba,

I hope you are well - kitchen refurb sounds exciting.

I really cant wait to buy a house to pick a kitchen...I just need to ensure we don't buy a house with a nice kitchen which will scupper my plans!

Where are you off on holiday?
