    Morning all :)

    Slow start for me, that nasty old headache nobbled me last night and needed a big sleep! Early night for me tonight I think...

    Today I will:
    - [STRIKE]charge phone at work[/STRIKE]
    - [STRIKE]hang laundry up[/STRIKE]
    - [STRIKE]clean house, we've got people coming over on Friday and I hate it when the house isn't looking nice, OCD much?![/STRIKE]
    - [STRIKE]home for lunch to save money (sofa time last night meant I didn't get off my bum and make lunch to take it, luckily OH is being lovely and giving me a life back at lunchtime :T)[/STRIKE]
    - [STRIKE]stick to meal plan for dinner[/STRIKE]
    - [STRIKE]check for surveys[/STRIKE] :mad: spent ages doing one on mysurvey and it messed itself up at the end so got no credits :mad:
    - [STRIKE]nice healthy homemade smoothie for breakfast[/STRIKE]
    - [STRIKE]start baking for Saturday's market (Valentines theme :heartpuls:kisses2::heartpuls )[/STRIKE]

    Pretty sure I've missed some stuff out so might have to update when I get my brain in gear! Have a lovely positive day everyone, Friday tomorrow! :D :beer:

  • Morning all!

    It's rainy and very dull here this morning, but warm in the house despite the heating being off :)

    Today's list for me:

    - checked bank balance
    - check for/do surveys
    - do a few comps
    - dinner already on the go, plan to have it finished before I hit the supermarket after the school run
    - Morrisons with list from menu, planning this week to drop brands on a few items, and check out some more special offers
    - lunch on leftovers
    - laundry already done and on airer, yesterday's ironing done
    - heating off
    - start searching ebay properly for yarn (I want this to be MSE rather than spendy too)

    Have a good day, all :D

    Morning all you lovely DFW people

    On way to London today for work. I sometimes wonder why I have a desk in my own office!

    I had another NSD yesterday, but need to stock up on bread and milk today.

    My small DFW things today:
    Showered using the toiletries brought back from recent hotel stays
    Walked to the train station
    Lunch will be on expenses as I'm away from my normal workplace. I'll spend right up to my limit then eat only the sandwich or salad & bring the rest home for the kids
    Charging phone on the train
    Raided some sugar from the buffet bar
    Dinner from stores

    Think that's it for now.

    Have a great day all
    Debt free since December 2015. It can be done


  • Just little odds & ends for me:
    charging mobile at work
    bring own lunch to work
    free tea & coffee at work
    taking home shredded documents from work to use as packaging for ebay stuff
    make some handmade cards for occassions coming up (moonpig are making a fortune out of me as i'm not prepared enough)
    crochet cover for rabbit's heat pad rather than fork out £10 for a new one
    make some more home-made jewellery to put on ebay/give as gifts
    call back the lady who's left a message about the interview for new job....hoping its good news but will have to wait until i'm alone - dont want eavesdroppers!
