Thursday 30th December 2010 – What Small Things…..

inamin

Ok todays plan for me:

* Pay £12 into barlcaycard account from selling my fire guard
*Pay £4 coppers found around house into Lloyds OD
* Check items I have listed on ebay
*List more items on ebay
*Check for mystery shops
*Check for surveys
*Advertise available tutoring slot
* Send claim forms off for recently completed ystery telephone calls
* Get eat out of freezer for dinner to defrost without using microwave!!
*Contemplate offering ironing service to local older neighbours. (£10 per basket, what do you think?) (Do I put an add in the local launderette too?)
* HERES THE BIGGY: Go and see prospective employee for hubby's business which will hopefully result in employing her meaning more expense BUT hubby getting back to work part time due to his illness.... Keep your fingers crossed for me guys.

woohoo i have 'perfect' vision! Very healthy eyes and apparently probably wont need glasses until well into my 40s! Pleased with that!

Have booked the kids in for eye tests next week - OH has awful eyesight so want to check the kids are okay. DD1 gets a lot of headaches so defintely worth a look!

So i can cross - Go for an eye test off my 101 list!

My friend fed the kids lunch and i got 2 meccano bargains in the argos sale!

I hope everyone is well x

I turned the heating right down, I'm not even cold so that'll save some pennies and I haven't left the house so have spent no money on stuff I don't need :T

tumble drier has died though but is luckily under warranty still. I guess the bright side of that is I'll be forced to use the clothes horse which'll save money on electric.

Well hello there DFW buddies :wave:

I'm just back from a few days at my sister's. Was lovely to see everyone and the kids were mega excited the whole time we were there. So cute

I've just read through the threads from the past couple of days - was nice to catch up with everyone.

:hello: Hello to all the new posters :hello:

:iloveyou: to everyone else

Here's what I've been up to...

• Found 21p on the ground for my pot
• Got the coach, not the train
• Took two flasks for the trip - one hot; one cold
• Thinking about what I can use to save £2 coins...
• Update diary thread
• Do a to do list pronto - procrastination will not be my middle name any longer
• Need to think about my short term cash situ
• Read a bit more

Happy Hogmanay for tomorrow everyone

Good News:

Re electric debt - Long story short
Left my flat with a debt (loooong story).
NPower sent the debt to Moorcroft
Moorcroft said if I paid x they would write off 1/4 of the debt
Paid
Called to confirm that the balance is £0 in December 2008

Last night got home from work to a letter from NPower demanding the balance.

Called NPower and vented my frustrations of this not being sorted out. Girl said she would have to come back to me. Gave my mobile number for them to call me.

Called Moorcroft to confirm the situation and again vent my frustrations of this not being sorted out.

No phone call so called NPower when I got home.

Guy looked on the computer and confirmed that the balance on the a/c is £0 as £112.50 has been writted off!

YAY :T

Bad News:

My mobile was delivered, signed for by a neighbour but they have gone out :mad: might have to put an emergency £5 on my PAYG mobile just in case But then might be handy to have it as a spare
