  • good plan! grow my own! why didn't i think of that :D

    Well not a NSD DH asked for my bank card (as it's my birthday tomorrow and i'm assuming a card was needed!) and spent in asda on wine, (cards?) and few other bits!

    Entertainment was free this afternoon though, we had a gruffalo hunt in the woods lol and spent the afternoon looking for animals & their houses !

    DVD & bed tonight feeling all irritable as i'm tired :( !

    Perhaps the wine dh bought may make me feel better ;):D

  • Thank you so much for my birthday wishes :happylove:lovethoug

    Please share some cake :bdaycake:& tea/coffee :coffee: :)

    Today i've had friends round for a catch up & some cake ;)

    Received ZERO birthday cards in the post :eek:

    Have spent an hour (at least) on the phone to Npower & SSE trying to decipher from the codes they talk in who i was actually signed up to and what i was paying *sigh*

    Called mum, she was upset, so spent half hour trying to make her feel better.

    DH & I have rowed over 'pocket money' on today of all days! I'm going to give in this month and give him £100 (if it is there) :( i can't be doing with the hassle anymore.

    Good news is my electric has been worked out for the year and i am paying £40 a month from now on:T and £31 on gas :T the man was very impressed with how little i had used :T (actual figures not just them tempting me with low DD and then charging me £500 every 3 months on top of DD!)

    Anyway kids rowing so best go! DH is cooking a cake in oven for me so very mse lol. Be back later hopefully :D

    countdown to payday..............2 days left :j:j
