Thanks dfw I gained 9 pounds in three weeks after the wedding so I've lost 3 in 3 weeks so only 6 to go to be back to my wedding weight

Went for a walk to drop off mil's car keys to hubby's old work who were king her mot then popped to aldi to get cereal bananas soya sauce and mushrooms spent £4.20 then popped into pound stretchers for scourers and coffee so that was £4.50 there then walked home.

Sent a email to the company that makes the scourers as I bought some two weeks ago and they've both fell apart whereas normally I can make to last for quite a while took a picture and they've replied apologising for the faulty products and are seeing me out a couple if free packs :T bonus as I don't normally complain xx

Did the avon run tonight and got another £65 in orders so I've got over £310 in orders this campaign with two customers saying they'll text me later on tonight with one more :j so I'm happy with that xx

Also transferred £99 into the mortgage account so mortgage account is sitting at £800 / £10000 :T its getting there xx

Afternoon :hello:

Operation decorate has finished my living room wall looks pretty and the hallway has been painted and glossed I've just finished this as we ran out of pain for one wall............how blooming expensive is paint £18 for a small tin. :mad: shocking

Bought my eldest son the new Spider-Man DVD for £10 plus he got a free action figure xx

Nipped into next as son discovered they were selling lego movie duvet sets so he had birthday money left for we contributed £40 but this was gift vouchers from our wedding and our son put £16 towards it so technically I didn't spend any money so pick those up tomorrow :T xx

Then it was off to asda and spent £9.80 on juice rice a ready meal and some reduced meat for packed lunches tomorrow xx

So spends are done for today and got a good walk especially with 3 bottles of juice on your back bags of shopping in one hand and a tin of paint in the other xx

Now just sitting down for my lunch then its off to scrub the paint of the laminate in the hallway and that's me done with the hall just need to wait for the paint to dry and then I can put my mirror back up xx

Afternoon :hello:

Hate not having any money :mad:checked the bank and after all my bills are paid I had £40 left there spent £18 in asda and necessities like bread cold meat etc for packed lunches for this week then £28 on flipping postage for my MIL when she only gave me £15 to cover it :mad: so now I have absolutely hee haw just been paid my wages for my childminding but that's went in one hand and out the other as my hubby harps a stag do so need to give him £140 from my wages and he has £60 odd in his bank so that'll need to do him as he's away for the weekend. Think I'm staying in tomorrow as got no money at all. Think I only need diluting juice Which I can get tomorrow and nappies which I'm hoping I can stretch til Thursday.

Avon is due for delivery on Thursday so I'm hoping I make about £75 in commission which would be great and tide me over til next Tuesday when I get paid again then tax credits get paid next Wednesday thank god.

We are only struggling because hubby only got paid for 2 weeks in his new job and his previous employers deducted £200 from his final wage because of holidays :mad:so we are defo short this month but we will plod on and get by..............I hope xx

Picked up the boys lego duvets so just about to go out them on....in a cleaning mood like a gutting out kind of mood god help the kids room might see what I can sell on Facebook and eBay :rotfl: need the money :rotfl:

Will probably be back on later for a moan lol

Evening :hello:

Nsd day today .......so far but need to go to shops for diluting juice and whole milk for babies bottle tonight

Dropping ds1 off to his group at 5.30pm which is free :j and doesn't finish til 7.30pm so we are nipping up to MILs to pick up our baby boy from his gran buts she's feeding up ......nothing like a free dinner lol xx

Was a quick working day today just needed to collect them from school get back give them a snack then their mum was here at 3.45 so nice easy day today work wise :T

Woke up feeling rotten went back to sleep after kids went to school think I slept?!?!?! It was that kinda sleep where your aware of all the noises that are around you hate those kind of sleeps :mad: woke up with a headache grrrrrrrr had lunch then gutted my bedroom then hoovered all the rooms so that's my house all sparkling again awaiting the return of the baby who I would much rather play with that do chores lol xx

Was sitting thinking about the no money situation (only for a week) and I'm determined to get the debts gone so I've decided to set myself a target and will update my ticker later one but I'm getting rid of the tesco CC next month which is sitting at £175 as the 0% runs out this month so want it gone then this frees up £50 a month for another debt which I haven't decided which I'm tackling yet but hubby is on board which makes it easier xx

Off to make ds1 his dinner before his club

Hope you all have a nice night xx
