Mortgage-Free Fresian? Here's hoping!

Sadly, my mortgage is back to normal too

I started writing an update this morning, but the sodding laptop crashed halfway through so I'm only getting around to it now

Good things from yesterday/today:

• Won £25 of vouchers from work which arrived yesterday, already converted to Amazon which should be with me early next week
• Had to go to M&S to buy leaving gift with a work collection. We had about £7 to buy her wine, so I spent £3 of my own money to do Dine in for £10 for myself and Mr Fresian to have a nice dinner this weekend
• £5 Amazon voucher received from Swagbucks
• £82 cashback received from Quidco, paid in varying degrees to my credit card, loan and to the Craft Fund

I've had a lovely day off with Mr Fresian today. We went to the pictures this morning to see The Troll Hunter which is brilliant. If you fancy a Norwegian movie about trolls, go and check it out

I was meant to be going out for dinner with work tonight but honestly can't be bothered. I'm going to have a night in with my cardmaking and my boy instead.

Tomorrow I'm going to meet Psychopathbabble from the PAD thread for a wee drink in the afternoon, which I'm really looking forward to. Apart from that my only other plan is to head to Aldi for some shopping. I plan a pretty restful weekend

Hopeful1

I'm not surprised you didn't feel like going out! Hope you enjoyed the time in your jammies! I had a whole afternoon to myself yesterday. I spent it making cards. I find it really theraputic.

Have a restful weekend

Morning all

Yesterday ended up being quite relaxing (until a GIANT spider appeared. Thankfully Mr Fresian was able to end its reign of terror with the Mop of Destiny)

I went to Aldi for our shopping and was quite pleased to spend less than a tenner while I was there. I need to pop to Tesco today, but that should also run to less than a tenner. I'm planning to head there soon in the hope that it's not too busy! I have a couple of things to buy, but mainly want to price a new camera. The only one I have is on my phone and it's not been right since I dropped it into a puddle

Today I need to list a load of stuff on Ebay. I have a number of crafting things I still need shot of, and it's free listing today so it seems like a good time. I'm also thinking about selling one of my Radley's as I don't use it anymore. It may as well go to a good home. I might not though

Better dash - I still have dishes and washing to do before I start looking for Ebayable items :rotfl:

Here in Hurdler Mansions, the Mop of Destiny was actually more the Dyson of Doom! There was a MAHUSIVE spid that appeared the other night while I was tipsily watching the tennis and it met with the full force of cyclone technology!

Whaty the Radley that may be looking for a new home like?

It's a big black one that cost me £150 originally but I've not used it for ages....

S'ok. Turns out I'm not ready to part with it anyway

I've listed 19 items in all, mainly crafty stuff. It should make me about £50 if it all sells. I'm not 100% sure I want to sell it all, but I need to be good to pay for some of the things I've bought on Ebay recently

Is anyone else sitting in front of their PC wondering how it can be Monday already?

Anyway, on with the MSE show

Money

Payday is on Friday and things sit thusly:

PAD/Spends - £25
Entertainment - £14.01
Groceries - £28.00
Loan repayment fund - £1419.45
Mortgage overpayment fund - £58.08
No idea where my crafty fund is sitting as I can't find the username for it

I have no major expenditure planned for this week apart from possibly going to the pictures tomorrow as there is a one-night-only showing of a movie about Pearl Jam, one of my favourite bands. I'm trying to get Mr Fresian to come with me, but he's not too keen I don't think. This will be spendy as it's not in the cinema I have the pass for, but another local one.

My Ebay items (19 of them) end next Sunday and I already have two items with watchers. I've been to Poundland and am fully stocked up on bubblewrap and padded envelopes :rotfl::rotfl:
