    Nothing much happening today. Back at work tonight so will be heading back to bed when OH get's home about 4pm.

    I woke this morning feeling very dizzy. I had vertigo 8 years ago and it was awful and I thought I had it again this morning but so far it seems to have gone but it meant DS missed football this morning as I just couldn't get up.

    I have done a washing and it's on the line, I'm hping it stays dry till 4pm. Dishes have been done and I plan to just have a quick hoover round.

    I am also going to do my online banking. I've no idea why I keep putting it off we are lucky that out incommings are more than our outgoings but I know we spend too much on rubbish and I think looking at the list of debits gets me down because I know we are just spending cause the money is there. Still hopefully this month I am going onto monthy pay and I have arranged for it to go into a seperate account. The plan is to just leave it there. For 2 years we lived on only OH wage and we managed fine (we had to there was no OD or savings) so the plan is to go back to pretending we only have OH wage.

    Today should be a NSD the freezer, fridge and cupboards are fit to burst.

    Right off to do the banking.

    Finished work this morning for 3 nights. I'm so tired, I slept for a few hours when the kids were at school.

    We've taken the kids swimming, done their homework and had dinner. I'm now lying on the sofa having a creme egg and watching eastenders then I think I will head off to bed.

    I did put a washing on this morning and half is dried (TD)

    Kids are excited they think the potatoes they planted have started to grow so will check them tomorrow.

    Tomorrow the plan is to do another washing
    Hoover round
    Go to the gym

    Spends today £7 farmfoods.

    Not going to the gym, had a terrible nights sleep so woke this morning in a lot of pain. I have fibromyalgia and if I have a really bad nights sleep i suffer the next day:(

    So I had a lie in then put away yesterday's washing and put another in the machine. I've just hung the washing out but it's that windy i'm keeping my fingers crossed it doesn't blow away.

    The kids room was getting a bit messy so I have started to gut it. I've bleached the window seals (blown windows so they get mouldy) Dusted, hoovered and thrown some things away.

    Still need to do the dishes and have a quick tidy of the living room.

    Dishes done, washing dried and put away (it didn't blow away after all) kids room is all done and dusted looks really good - will see how long it lasts :cool:

    Dinner is on just me and the kids as OH is working late.

    Think the living room can wait as my batteries are running low lol.

    Off food shopping tomorrow so need to make a list.

    Managed a NSD today :j so happy with that.

    Will see about going to the gym tomorrow.

    Mmmmmm just been looking online and already this month we've spent £160.39 on food shopping and £46.60 on take aways and it's only the 9th:(

    See this is how our money slips through our fingers. So I have made a list and I am sticking to it.

    Bank balance is looking a bit ill but all the bills have been paid. The problem is I get paid weekly so it 's harder to budget. Still once I get paid on friday I shouldn't need to spend any of my other wages this month - well in theory but it never works out like that :(

    Ah well least my house is in order just need to get my bank balance in some sort of order now.
