    Glad its the weekend again, the weeks feel like a real slog at the moment for some reason :o So today has been pretty good though, we couldn't find the fob to open the garage this morning so ended up walking to school, good exercise I guess :cool: Spends today = 60p on a biscuit.

    An ebay bin item sold for £20 :T and I won £1.50 on a games offer, so will add both of those to the pot :)

    I can't wait to join you as a MFW....can't do anything until June at the very earliest :cool:

    Weighed in yesterday and stayed the same. I'm happy with that though as I have pigged quite a few chocs during the week :o but also did 4 runs and a pole class so kind of balances things out ;)

    Have a great weekend.

    June isn't that far away Poles ;)

    So I took ds to his drama lesson, had a mooch about the shops, met the ex-inlaws and they took ds, I have been for the facial that I won in a school raffle (was lovely :D), then went to tescos and now am having half an hour on here before they come back again.

    Lots of spends today :o
    £3 on a man utd pencil case set for ds for being so good this week :j
    £4.50 in superdrug on shower gel, toothpaste etc
    £1.10 on photocopying for ds homework
    £3.30 car park
    £2 on a bus tshirt that was reduced for ds :)
    £45 in tescos
    £10 on books for ds (using his book gift card so not money as such)

    The tesco shop did include 3 easter eggs to put away for nephews / niece, also a new frying pan (reduced to £1.50 :T)

    Quite a productive morning so far, ds has finally finished his school project even though its taken ages to print out (had to reinstall the printer and redownload word .... ) anyway, its finally done now :)

    The weather is pants today, so an indoor day is definitely called for :D I am going to try and get a few bits done and generally potter and catch up with stuff. I will write a list but its more as a reminder than a must do list.
