Hello. I havent posted for a while
Been really tired so when ever I have been on its just or a quick read and not posting anything...
Havent kept track of how many nsds ive had this mth - think ive had a few but havent counted....
Shopping is going OK will update sig in a min. Have £49 left from the budget so should come in fine for the mth....fingers crossed
Have also done well on all the other budgets for the mth:D
Brought some blue paint for the kitchen - reduced to £7 and DH managed to get some wood primer from work so we have given the kitchen a final splash of colour and it looks nice and fresh.
Also dh is going to do the doors and skirting boards

I have 8 weeks now (well prob nearer 10 as i always go over!) and its going soooooooo quick!! lol I really need to sort some stuff out before its late and ive got everything to do!!
I didnt end up coming under on the shopping BUT I only went over by £2!!! So im happy with that. Have set myself the same for next mth £300 and really hope I can stick to it.................. Lost count last mth on how many NSD I did so will try and keep up with how many i do this mth. Will go into town tomorrow and draw out the cash for the mth as it seemed to help.
Also I managed to only spend £70 on petrol so will put the £30 I still have in the jar towards holiday spends
I have DHs bday next mth so will need to get looking for some bargains for him! We are going out to London for Classic FM live as DH likes it and his mum has brought him the tickets for his bday. She has paid for Parking there so I dont have to walk around london - So will need Petrol for that and also some money for spends as DH would like to go for some food maybe if we get time - will have a look on here for some voucher or something before we go....
Did something for dinner that ive not tried today - its a mince meatloaf kindo thing lol. I read about one on here - but didnt have all the receipy so kinda made it up!! The girls have just had it.......and it wasnt a hit lol but they had it with jacket pots beans and cheese aswell so atleast they are full. Hopefully it will go down better with DH - I tried it and its seemed yummy so will see.......
Best go and get our JAckets on for in a bit and sort the girlsGC: Nov: £60.22/£450 Oct: £338.48/£450, July: £363.05/£450, June £447.98/£500£2 savers No68: £104/£100 :j:jmummy to: 8yr, 5yr, 3yr, 2yr, 1yr. No6 Due Mar 2013 My world.:j0 -
Wow mummy only 8 weeks
, I always go over too lol!! I told everyone id be induced with my 2nd as I was convinced I would and then was actually shocked when I went into labour. She was 8 days late mind, so not far off induction!
Best get that hospital bag sorted out :cool:.
Ooohhh the day out in London with DH sounds lovely, thats presumably without the kids?
We had jacket potatoes, cheese and beans for tea too! Hope DH enjoys the meatloaf thingy.
Oh and well done on only going £2 over :T x xMummytogirls x0 -
OMG time has flown can't believe your 8 weeks off your due date, hope you don't go to far over your date.
London sounds fab, have you got any Tesco vouchers you could swap for a meals out voucher would save you some pennies.0 -
Thanks Mummy. Yeah its without the kiddies for the night - I bet I keep thinking ive lost something all night
I bet you were shocked when you went into labour! I always know ill be late! dd2 was the earliest at 10 days late! I refused induction with DS and they were all moaning at me and saying I had to go for scans to check all was ok and then they would let me go a little longer so ill be kicking up a fuss this time aswell as I think my body just cooks them a bit longerdd was induced and 14 days late, dd2 was 10 days late and dd3 and ds were both 13 days late......
But yes I should get more organised!! Will pack the labour bag soon as im sure if I dont it would be the time baby decides to turn up earlyGC: Nov: £60.22/£450 Oct: £338.48/£450, July: £363.05/£450, June £447.98/£500£2 savers No68: £104/£100 :j:jmummy to: 8yr, 5yr, 3yr, 2yr, 1yr.
