I don't seem to have actually got anything done but i am multi-tasking and trying to do too many things at once so not sure I can actually cross anything off the list yet as I have emptied dishwasher and refiulled but not put away. i am giving the litter try a proper clean out so it is soaking at the moment so not actually changed. I have stripped our and the twins beds but the little man is asleep in his and I can't remake the beds as the fresh covers are in his room too. I have started decluttering the table but not finished.
I also have no idea why I am ranting about my unfinished jobs rather than actually finishing them so on that note ...Est. debt free day April 2016 (ish) Debt at June 2010 £34,247.13Debt at Dec 2011 £27,499.09 (19.7% paid off)Working together with DH on our debts (twindad07)Long haulers supporters DFW #2560 -

Hi back from car boot, made £50 profit so all good.
Before I left I put a wash on, emptied and refilled dishwasher, plonked beef in slowcooker, found more stuff to take with us to boot.
