    Morning all :) I don't think it'll be much of an MSE day today, as the daughters and I need to go into town for a few bits. However, I have some things to return to John Lewis, so it should all balance out (I hope!)

    So, my list for today:
    • checked online banking
    • checked for/done a few surveys
    • second load of laundry in the machine at 30, first load already drying outside
    • make soup for lunch
    • dinner from stores/menu
    • catch up on comps
    • remember to ask myself if I REALLY need all the lovely things I see in the shops ;)

    It's sunny here, but really quite cold at the moment, so I'm hoping the temp. might just creep up a notch.

    Have a good day all :D

    Morning all, hope you're having a better day so far than I am! Feel like people at work are acting like I'm not even here, my sister is too lazy to get a job and won't help round the house while I'm at work (my mum's disabled so she can't do too much) and I'm just really stressed! :(


    Today I will:-
    • NSD - bringing my target for month down from 10 to 6 as I'm not gonna be able to do 10 :(
    • Check online banking
    • Check emails
    • Research company I have interview with Friday (got everything crossed for this and going to try really hard!)
    • Eat healthily
    • Free tea/water at work
    • Lunch from home/dinner from freezer
    EDIT: I just thought of another thing I'm gonna do... work out postage costs for eBay stuff as I have a massive washing basket full of stuff to bung on eBay!
    October Grocery Challenge - £67.18/£135
    Save up £500 - £0/£500
    NSDs for October - 0/10

    Thanks to Stitchy for starting us off. Glad to hear your feeling a bit more positive Candy. Hugs for you Compliments sounds like your sister needs a kick up the bum.

    Today I will:

    • Check bank balance
    • Check surveys
    • Homemade lunch
    • Chase up money I am owed for a study I did
    • Walk home
    • Yoga practice
    • Homemade dinner
    • Sign up to job searches
    • Sent CV and covering letter for job

    I hope you all have a great day. Sun is shining here but quite cold!

    I LOVED that book - was definitely my favourite read of last year - if anyone's not read it...then you must:T:T
    I really need to sort out a new signature!

    Whats it about? I usually only read Chick Lit books but in the last 3 months I've been reading Jessie Keanes books, a crime writer like Martina Cole, which is ironic because i've never been able to get into any of Martina Cole's books!

    I love nothing better than reading a good book :)

    It's definitely a must-read:D
    It's about 2 people who meet on their last day at Uni...the book then is set on that same day in july each year - it just tells the story of them both from that day in the late 80s I think it was up until now. It really is a fab read - I'm a chick-lit type too usually...and I so loved this - go for it;)

    Brilliant stuff! Think I will head to the Library or check out Amazon this afternoon.

    Will let you know what I think! x

    I had to add to what Pixie has said. I loved it. The main characters are great and their story is great. Couldn't stop reading it last night. Probably one of the best books I have read from a while. Let us know what you think Shezam.
