hopefully sorted soon KP. They have an enforcement order in place now apparently so fingers crossed.Such a shame I have had to travel this route though. If he had been a decent man he would have willingly given the money to his children. But hey ho he didn't

:j £140 in my bank today. I am happy . Going to let DD spend £50 on some clothes for her birthday and I'll get a couple of wee bits of surprises for her too. Going to get a couple pairs of joggers for DS and his walking boots. I'll also pay his license fee. I'll hopefully manage all that with the money and will be very pleased if I do. You can get walking boots for about £20 in Go Outdoors. I'm not going to buy him expensive ones as he might decide he doesn't like walking and I will have wasted a load of cash. Also he is growing at such a rate just now that it is not worth it. If he gets into it big time then I will be happy to spend the money but not until he proves himself .

Treated the kids to some sweets and myself a nice bottle of flavoured water today. Total of £3.41. I also bought a bag of compost to start off my seedlings for my gardem pots. We will get that done tomorrow as it is a right miserable day here today.

Went for a walk for an hour with my friend this afternoon. This was lovely and we managed a right good blether at the same time. Yesterday would have been my silver wedding anniversary if I was still married and I think she had been worried that I would be a bit down about it. I did think about it and wondered what it would have been like if things had worked out but I am NOT down about it as ex is still the same !!!!! I was married to :rotfl:.

Still 4 days off to go . Going to take my mum and the kids out tomorrow. I'm going to head up Loch Lomond and see where we land. We'll have a nice wee day I'm sure.

Ended up in Greenock today. Killed 2 birds with one stone. It got my mum out for the day and I got DD's birthday gifts whilst we were there. Mum treated us to a nice lunch whilst we were there so that was good. Will just need a snack dinner tonight.
Spent £45 on DD in Primani ( for her birthday ) and £23.20 for DS ( as he desperately needed things). It's totally amazing how much you can get in that shop for your money. I was well happy . And my wee mum bought me a new bag so I was even more happy then . Cute wee satchel bag. I spent £39 in petrol and £1 on sweets for the kids for the car. £2 on parking so not too bad all in all. Nice wee day and it gives me tomorrow all to myself :j. I am heading to weight watchers at 6.30 and will go tuck my mum in for the night and go to ASDA. I hardly need anything so hopefully a cheap one this week.

:eek::eek:more spends tonight.

£12.95 for monthly pass for weight watchers. £83 in ASDA but only £37.45 on food. Rest was on DD's birthday and easter eggs. That's it now though hopefully until next week when school lunches start again. Cupboards, fridge, freezer and petrol tank are all full so fingers crossed I don't need to spend anything in the next few days.

:jfirst no spend day in ages. I also paid £2.50 from Argos :rotfl:what a day !!
I've had a lovely chilled day with the kids. I caught up on my ironing and house is tidy. Went a walk with my son for an hour and that was great. My son hardly ever has a chat with me but he cannot escape when it is only him and I on a walk and I love it.

I lost 6lbs last night at weigh in so I was well chuffed with that. It really spurs you on when you get results like that. I spent a while today trying on some clothes that were too tight on me and some fit me others will fit me very very soon :D. Still not feeling overly fit but must say that walking up my hill to my house was definitely easier than it was the last time I did it, so maybe I am a wee bit.

Just set to chill tonight xx

Paid another £8.64 to Argos to bring me up to £500 paid. I am really pleased with that as I have managed to pay that over and above all my normal debt :j:beer:. Go me

Keeping_Positive

:j:TGreat news on Argos and the weight/fitness :T:j

Your new positive mental attitude is really paying off.

millionaire_in_training

Thanks KP. I am normally quite a positive person but last few weeks have been an absolute b*tch and I struggled a bit. Back to normal now :-).

Going to my mum's today to take her shopping. Will need to really try hard not to spend anything. I'll report in later. Am off to start doing some gardening duties . Hate gardening:(

millionaire_in_training

Didn't do any gardening Did I mention I hate gardening? :rotfl:. I was putting on body lotion after a shower and tweaked my back. Not a huge issue but very painful certain ways I move so I obviously couldn't garden .

Took my mum to Morrisons and spent £19.24 :eek:. What am I about?? I have enough food to feed an army and here I go spending more. My son is a bit chunky at the minute and I was buying some low fat goodies for him to munch on. Expensive this healthy eating mallarkey . I bought some more 'ingredients' fro my store cupboard. I reckon I have almost everything now and I mean everything !! The only thing I couldn't get that I wanted was lemongrass. Neither Morrisons or ASDA had any. Never mind I'm sure a skoosh of lime or lemon will suffice :rotfl:

What a gloriously gorgeous day . Green is full of washing. Downstairs in the house is spotless. Life is good .

Today will be a no spend day. I have been busy working about all day and have no intention of crossing the door other than to go a walk later. Going to get the kids into the garden later to get that tidied up a bit. Would do it myself but back is still a bit twingey so not going to take the chance with it.

I have a delicious recipe for Thai green curry for dinner so going to make that later. No doubt the kids will say it's horrible lol but tough. It's a weight watchers recipe but sounds yummy.

Ok am off to tackle the bedrooms :-)
