    Evening :hello:

    Is Tuesday yet it feels like this week is dragging in :mad:

    My eldest two are away to London so got up made hubby his breakfast (toast) and a coffee as well as husband sandwiches for lunch and then organised the two black bags which I would be taking to the charity shop later on today

    Got all the kids off and dropped the eldest off to their minibus and then jumped on the bus £4 went to toddlers £2 kids were sweating with tall the running about they do :rotfl: came home got lunch then straight back out again for the nursery run

    Came home grabbed the two black bags for the charity shop and literally ran.:rotfl: to catch the bus which was 5. Minutes early :mad: I'm so unfit :rotfl: dropped the bags off and then nipped into Iceland for bread £1

    Came home and chilled for half an hour on trashy tv then picked up my mindee then Got Kk from nursery who are now both sitting out on the couch playing kks tablet xx

    Cash out another £21.83 from pa.......still got £8 pending this money is going into my Xmas fun where so far we have £270 :T as well as the £100 Sainsburys voucher and £8 worth of nectar points :T

    Think I might as sold another game on fb......sales are quite slow tbh I normally sell the kids clothes first but not even a bit of interest........still to put the big bundle of paw patrol on :p so hopefully they'll collect the game and that's another £8 in the Florida tin :T

    Off to put the washing on the radiators xx

    Well I've so far collected over £630 in orders :j

    Got a couple more to deliver tonight just need another £35 to pay my invoice them the rest is all mine :T

    Didn't go to weigh in today as had dentist check up......teeth all healthy :T

    Went to home bargains and spent £9.55 on conditioner, bars of soap, 2 multi packs of my crisps, 2 packs of my face wipes and 2 packs of sparklers

    Bought the boys Xbox one for their Xmas cost me £172 compared to £369 brand new, it's second hand but I get a two year warranty with it :T don't even get that with a brand new one and it has double the memory :T

    Unfortunately their Xbox 360 died at the weekend :( so they will just need to make do with their other consoles until Santa comes xx

    So I'll keep an eye out for any cheap games on the fb selling pages and just put them by plus need to buy another controller as only got one with it as standard xx

    Glad I've got the boys main out of the way now to get abbies which will be a laptop as she has exams next year :eek:

    Sent a cheeky 45p towards the Halifax card :T

    Hope you're all having a fab weekend xx

    Evening :hello:

    Waiting for the potatoes to boil so thought I would pop on :D

    Kids are off school for their kids October break but had to get them up for playgroup £2 :( but it was surprisly quiet only 21 kids :rotfl:

    Came home made the kids their lunch and put my sausage veg and gravy in the slow cooker and peeled potatoes ready for tonight

    Wentdown to hubby's garage to help out..... I think we helped but he looked highly stressed but poor Abbie was all dirty as she got stuck in helping her dad :rotfl: she's now in the shower :rotfl:

    Sent £107 towards the Halifax and sent £100 towards the barclaycard :T

    I'm feeling hopeful I might be able to get this Halifax under the £5k mark this would be a great accomplishment I reckon considering how tight I've been with money :rotfl:

    Been a lsd today but need to nip to lidl for juice, cold meat and maybe cheese :rotfl: after I've dropped Abbie off at playgroup :rotfl:

    Morning :hello:

    So so tired that awful wind woke me at 2.30am and I had a restless sleep since then feel like I haven't slept

    Started work at 7am :mad: won't finish til 5.30pm :( so it's going to be a long day

    My son and older mindee are going to a FREE group today at 10am so I'll take them up there and then nip to the post office and pay my avon invoice :T

    Need to message those who wanted their orders today to see when I can deliver them :D

    I've also booked a pet handling session at pets at home for 2am which again is FREE :T so well walk to that but I'll take the double buggy for the smaller ones as it's about a 30 minute walk

    Need to nip into Asda for butter but that's all I need I think :rotfl:

    Sent £7.77 towards the Halifax card :T under another hundred bracket :T can't wait to get under the £5k mark :cool:
