I did a post yesterday, but I lost it as the computer at work had a fit! I now can't remember what was in it!

Anyhoo, the shopping at Mr T came to a grand total of £2.34 after £0.92 off coupon and taking mum's two tins of pilchards out of the equation. So that's an approximate total of £18 this week. there will be some bread to buy about Tuesday, but will be less than a quid.

Taking Mum out for a cheap and cheerful lunch today and going out with the girls to Best Friends DILs for a get together tonight - cheap night for me as driving £1.29 for a tiny bottle of wine and 50p for a bottle of bitter lemon!!!! Going to give her some money for food though so probably £5. Still a cheap night!

Makes a change to be doing something with the girls...

Last night's tea was supposed to be Chilli & Jackets that morphed into Sausage & Mash with Red Onion Gravy - all from stores and freezer anyway, so no extra expense.

Next meal I cook will be Monday!

Got a few chores to do this morning and going to clear out my tea towel drawer (exciting) as its stuffed and I know there are some in there that are WELL past their sell by date!

If the weather stays dry, will go up the allotment for a bit - last two nights have been wet, so need to get back up there.

£5 more Mr T stamps got yesterday, just £3 to complete the card - will be done early this year.

Still got to get those B00ts points added on - I know its only 45p, but every little helps as they say.

Want to do a car boot sale before the weather closes in completely and I have been looking round as to what I can get rid of - I think its a case of emptying cupboards and then putting things I want to keep back and away (as there is a lot of stuff floating around anyway) and see what I've got left.

Need to purchase a plastic box next week to put some silicon bakeware in as it seems to be taking over the house. lol.

Wishing everyone a great weekend.

Another £80 repaid from DHs nephew. Will transfer tomorrow. Think I will need to get down to the bank and pay it in this time.

Nice dinner at the MILs this evening.

Really tired so good night from me.

Still got a bit of stupid cough...

Money transferred, but can't update signature...£10,565.83/£15,000 (70.4%).

Managed to tidy the tea towel drawer - threw 6 very old and holey tea towels away and put another 5 in better repair into another cupboard for spares. Identified a possible tablecloth for car boot (plus napkin rings) must wash to see if I can get marks out first. Washed my best tablecloth which I will now be able to put away in the drawer as there is now room.

Going to be on the hunt for some new tea towels as most of the ones I have left are not that good really.

The point is, I've managed to do some decluttering!!!! Go me!

Got a few bits done charity work wise that I have been meaning to do for ages - so feel happy that they are now done out of the way.

All washing done too...need to keep this up - as it makes me feel more relaxed when I get things done.

Tonight's tea will either be Chilli & Rice or Crab Spaghetti - will let DH decide.

Hoping for a dry hour this evening to get a bit done up the allotment; then we are planning to have a sort out of photos from the loft - we have so many - its a job we have been putting off for ages, but in all fairness it should be fun - so earlyish tea (well for us anyway), glass of wine and sit down and have fun walking down memory lane.

Hope everyone had a good weekend.

Feel worse today...all sniffy again..damn it!

Went up the allotment last night and finished the row - it was cold and it was hard going. Started to rain just as I was leaving - good job its only a street away from where I live!

DH decided on the Chilli & Rice last night and I added garlic bread as we need to get DH to put some weight back on after being poorly.

Started to go through the photos - what a job - there are boxes and boxes of them. Got some choice ones to go on FB - watch out school friends! lol. Lots more to do and GOKs where we are going to put all the albums when we are done - must tackle DH about that later.

Going out for tea tonight - we have been good and not gone out for a few weeks - going to a tapas bar where they have 2 Tapas for £5 tonight - so with drinks and some bread should come to less than £30 for the two of us.

Just sent off DHs paperwork for his written off car £10.14 it cost me - 1st class signed for plus a MASSIVE jiffy bag (had none to recycle). Oh well, its done now and hopefully they will pay him out soon and he'll be able to look for another car.

No extra money on the horizon and still need to pay that £80 in my account that DHs nephew gave him back to replace what I have transferred.

Off to see if the signature thingy is fixed...

MCI

YES, signature updated...
