Good morning lovely DFWs

I woke up this morning and my first thought was: I want my mommy!

I ache everywhere after all the packing/cleaning/tidying up. Our current place is filled with boxes and the new places is filled with clothes and rubbish bags and soda crystals and bottles of stardrops. I just want it all to be over soon

End of moaning, sorry.

Anyway, moving tomorrow and I am not going back to work until after New Year's so there is something to be cheerful about! :j

Planning a non spender today. Lunch is leftovers from last nights stir fry and some prawns I found in the freezer

Have a great day everyone and keep it low!

Aaaww morning moozie,here's a giant :grouphug: to make you feel a little better,remember no pain,no gain! it will all be worth it when you move in,it's tomorrow isn't it?
I am feeling a littlle 'iffy' today,can't put my finger on what's wrong

probably christmasitis :rolleyes: still haven't sorted the tree lights,but in true MSE style I took the £10.50 lights back and exchanged them for cheaper ones £6,DH thought I was mad,but I didn't want to go over my budget

Today will be a no spender,going to make some mince pies and will try and get them in the freezer before I eat them all! :eek:
Have a good day everyone

hi moozie:)

need to put some petrol in the tank today, so that will be a tenner, also need to get some squash and milk so probably another couple of quid there. but thats it:) have just had car tax bill in for end of december so want to scrimp and save as much as i can so it doesnt effect my overdraft challenge:)

Hi Moozie
I am getting my hair done today:j so that will be a cost of £85 to make myself temporarily beautiful:rolleyes: I did an extra shift to pay for it last Wednesday so it is 'budgeted for'.

Last night I gave some money to the carol singers, it was dark so they couldn't see how little I was giving:o (£1 )

Other than that I will be spending no more money. I've put myself on a diet to lose 2 stone that I've put on in the last 18 months. Was a size 10, now flitting between a 10-12-14 and my clothes are getting too tight. I can't afford new ones so I'll save more money this way:D

I need to buy some fruit for lunch, as have leftover ginger vegetable stirfry from last week that's been in the freezer, and doubt that will fill me up much. OH is working late, so i'll have to grab the bits we need rather than him (doh. Always seems to be me and it's his lunch stuff!!) - so £5 estimated, on bananas, cheese, etc.

Hi Moozie - I'm sorry you are havig a bad day!

Myself, after 3 spend free days, I am SICK of soup and need something a bit more inspiring to eat for the rest of the week - heading to the shops for some basics, plan is to keep it under £7.

Hi everyone, I hope you stop aching soon Moozie, but I'm sure it will all be worth it! :j

I spent 99p on a Santa hat my sister asked for & 99p on some chocolate for my Auntie who kindly drove me to the shops (still fairly immobile :sad: )
I also bought more Christmas presents (only 1 more to get!) but not including that spending because it comes out of a separate account.
Going to be spending another £7-8 later at local salon and that will be it, so total for today= £9.98

Hi Moozie,
I need to buy something for the dinner. Think I'll make spag bol, all I need to buy is the mince (i think ive got everything else) and a small carton of tomato puree. Hopefully less than £3.

And my ebay items end in 55 mins, I've got £51.86 in my paypal account :j

So overall, not a bad DFW day for me
