Npot sure what flashing shows are but hope that they sell
Sorry I fixed it it's flashing shoes that were the youngest but he's outgrew them and they were sat in the cupboard
Someone is meant to be collecting them tonight put them on for £7 they are coming at 8pm so another £7 towards the Halifax tomorrow :j woo hoo
Finished work now :j in between baby sleeping and getting picked up I've managed to clean the kitchen and bleach the floor so it smells awesome. Also managed to get two washings out and dried :T which means more ironing
Paid the avon invoice and managed to get rid of two orders this afternoon and I have three orders to get rid of tonight and that's us all done.......til Thursday that is :rotfl:
Right off to make a curry for hubby coming home seeing as he looks shattered when he left here this morning xxNEXT TARGET: Halifax credit card DEC 22 £0 / £4499.12POAMAYC 2011 £6378.35 POAMAYC 2012 £5000.78POAMAYC 2013 £3480.04 POAMAYC 2014 £4085.14POAMAYC 2015 £7565.24 POAMAYC 2016 £8000.90 POAMAYC 2017 £7278.80 POAMAYC 2018 £13208.18POAMAYC 2019 £13309.28 POAMAYC 2020 £15026.050 -
Afternoon :hello:
Been a productive day had the day off I know know it's very unheard of but I've made the most of it
Woke up at 10am :eek: and me an Kk set about emptying the big cupboard in the kitchen and we stripped all the wallpaper in there :T took us about 3 hours :T but it's done :T need to go to b&m later on for some ready made plaster as there's a couple of loose bit of plaster so need to tap the money out and refill them before I or hubby papers on there
I already had the wallpaper bought it about a year agoout of sight out of mind I reckon but not anymore as everything that was in the cupboard is not scattered all over the kitchen :rotfl: so hubby's job it to patch the wall up and I need to put a damp proof coat over the walls tonight so that potentially we can get the wallpaper up tonight. Need to check the garage and see if I have any white gloss as the shelving brackets need a touch up. Also bought plastic coverings to go along the shelves to make them easily wipable again I bought these a year ago and completely forgot
Had lunch then me and Kk nipped into town on the bus we had intended to walk bu the rain caught us out so spent £4.20 on a day rider :mad:
Nipped up to sports dire to collect xanders school trainers and got a £5 voucher.......Kk is asking for football and net for his birthday and they are doing two balls for £6 so will pick them up and use the voucher nearer the time :T means they will only cost me £1 :T
Spend £2.95 at poundworld on dishwasher salt, a Stanley blade set, a tool set for Kk and a folder, got them really cheap as the store is closing down
Had to buy a new iron today as mine has finally had enough can't complain as I've had it for 4 years so got one from Argos after looking at the reviews and got one for £24.99 :T so I'm happy with that xx
Sent £61.56 towards the Halifax :T bang on target for getting my first target donefeels good be back on the debt busting wagon xx
Right off to trim the wallpaper around the ceiling as someone wallpapered the walls first then wallpapered the ceiling :eek: who does that ?????NEXT TARGET: Halifax credit card DEC 22 £0 / £4499.12POAMAYC 2011 £6378.35 POAMAYC 2012 £5000.78POAMAYC 2013 £3480.04 POAMAYC 2014 £4085.14POAMAYC 2015 £7565.24 POAMAYC 2016 £8000.90 POAMAYC 2017 £7278.80 POAMAYC 2018 £13208.18POAMAYC 2019 £13309.28 POAMAYC 2020 £15026.050 -
