Morning all

Thanks for starting us BEB. Bit later than usual I have had a busy morning at work.

Today I will:

• Check bank balances
• Check surveys
• Homemade lunch
• Pasta for dinner
• Clean kitchen cupboards and all the shelves.
• Mop the floors
• Starting packing the remaining items
• Put some items on scheduled listings for Ebay (turbolister doesn't work on macs!), must be due a freelisting weekend soon.

Have a great day.
xx
Doesn't seem like a lot but I am sure that more will creep in!

*shuffles into view* hey there! back again, I keep coming back and this time I'm determined to stay, if you'll have me?
I messed up my budget, quite substantially this month, so am kicking myself, and need to do all good things to make it better. I did a 0% balance transfer last night so hopefully that will help with everything.

So my small things list:

Bought lunch from home and fruit for snacks
Drinking coffee and water from the kitchen and won't buy any drinks
LSD (Had dentist this morning, so had to pay for that)
Bussed in and will bus home using my bus pass (I had a season ticket loan and discount from work - so it comes out of my pay every month)
Check one poll (At £33.55 I think, soooo close!)
Check pigsback
Check as many survey sites as I can remember
Tonight I will take pics of some of my crafts to list on misi

So yes, as i say, need to start again.

Afternoon all!!!

La E - fantastic news Hun! I bet you are both so relieved.
Perni- i bought a platinum wedding ring. Though my engagement ring is white gold. My reasons were that i have very acidic hands apparently! I had turned the back of my engagement ring to yellow within 8 months of our engagement. So would mean EVERY year i would have to plate 2 rings!! I am concerned about the platinum wearing away the white gold but i will have them regularly checked and will cross that bridge if i get to it! It helps that my perfect shape wedding ring in platinum was on sale at a great jewellers for £340 down from £700!
Sibles- Welcome back :T
Wannabe - you have reminded me i want to start looking into competitions

Wow! Where was that? Fantasic bargain Hopefully I will find platinum for a decent price then! My white gold engagement ring is still white but it has a few slight surface scratches after only a couple of years so I was hoping for something a bit tougher.

When i got my wedding ring made by a jeweller he cleaned my ring up looked like new at the wedding. The ring cost the same as getting it from a regular large chain store.

Oh G-d what a day!

*First I was late for work. I'm never late! :mad:

*Then work didn't go as well as it usually does and I ended up making a mistake. I confessed to my boss and she was ok about it, but I'm usually so careful. :eek:

*And the car needed servicing and repairing so that cost me £150. So I walked the 4 miles from work to the garage to get the car and because I left the house in such a hurry this morning I forgot my trainers so I had to walk in my work shoes.

So I've just re-done my finances to accommodate the garage bill and things are gonna be really tight this coming month.
