Evening :hello:
Been a productive day today
Sent just under £200 towards the barclaycard :j
Set up playgroup 18 kids attended, came home did lunch for me and my two mindees before doing the nursery run
Walked into town to put my wages I got on Saturday into the bank picked up abbie a cake tin as we've discovered baking helps her anxiety a bit :T so this saves the cakes lying all over my kitchen :rotfl: and tempting me
Came home mindee got picked up then it was time to get the after schoolers
Seeing as it was dry they all got chucked out the back and seeing as we got rid of the old metal shed last night I started ripping the weeds out the back near the fence filled any divets with bits of rubble then hubby came home and put bit of wood at the bottom of the fence to prevent the piggy going under the fence and I filled the gap in with stones........looks very smart
Hubby then put all the wood and plastic cut offs away my back garden looks huge and so tidy :T so defo productive
Made up notices for the community centre need to print them off tomorrow morning and get them put up tomorrow afternoon :T
Sold abbies old phone all the money went to hubby to pay him back for her new phone so she only owes him £50so proud of her
Also went through uswitch to switch my gas and electricity saving me £20 a month allegedly lol...........plus got £25 cashback woo hoo
Also waiting fir someone to buy xanders old phone hoping for £30 if so that'll be winging its way to the barclaycard :T we shall see
Then I'll have a rummage and see what else I can sell :T need to mKe pennies to clear this loan before Xmas :cool: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 -

Today has been manic more so than usual
Got up put a wash on seeing as it's a beautiful day :j got Kk up wiped the bathroom down quickly as it was looking a bit sorry for its self now it's all sparkly, did this while Kk was having his cereal :cool:
Printed out the notice for the community centredropped Kk off at school and then took puppy to my grans as she was lonely so now she's got company, she's a time share puppy :rotfl:
Picked up one mindee from the school and we headed back in time for the other mindee, jumped on a bus £3.50 went to the bank to put money in, bought juice for me and mindee £1.29 then it was off to toddlers £2
I contacted a rodent catcher as I think we have a wee field mouse behind one of my cupboards so he's coming round tonight which will cost me £80 but that's for three visits over three weeks. We have construction going on around us due to new houses being built so fingers crossed he'll catch it, so the money I go at for xanders old phone will go towards that and hubby gave me £20 last night so technically I'm only £30 down gutted I can't fling it towards the barclaycard tho .......oh well
Came home quickly to put the other washloads out whilst one of the mindees was sleeping and stuck another load in will get that out are the school run :T
Nipped into the community centre to photocopy and put up the notices around the centre
Dropped mindee off at nursery and picked another mindee up :T walked up to lidl spent £13 on cold meat, quiche, apples, grapes, milk, bread, juice and salad stuff
Walked back home kids are playing waiting on wee one getting collected in 10 minutes then it's off to get my wee Kk then nip to post office to get the money for the mice catcher :T and hopefully I make it home for him arriving if not Abbie is here :rotfl:
Finish work at 5.30pm so not too bad might crack on with the ironing pile later 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
