Been to ww tonight and my weight stayed the same, really disappointed this week, I've tried pretty hard, we've walked to school 4 out of the last 5 days, we went for a long walk at the weekend, and I have been pretty good foodwise. My scales yesterday showed I'd lost 2lbs, but this morning they#d gone back up again. Hopefully next week it will even out and I'll have a decent loss
Spends today = £1.90 on new ww magazine, £1.70 on lunch, £1.50 on chips for ds tea.Mortgage Total: £50,720/ £75,000

A quite good day today, got lots achieved today at work. Spends = £4 on bread, milk, ham, choccy
Ds is out playing with his friend, I'm chilling for half an hour then its dinner and some housework this evening. Finally had a text from cutie saying he's free the second week of the holiday (when we're at the Isle of Wight :cool:), but maybe we'll manage to meet up when we get backMortgage Total: £50,720/ £75,000

Holidays have arrived!!! :j :j :j
Its been a strange day today, lots of good and sad stuff going on at work, a good mate is currently in labour so waiting to hear news there, and cutie was in todayI didn't know until I literally bumped into him going through a door
He stopped and said hello, said he meant to reply to a text I returned last night, promised he'd do so and then said he had to rush off as was late for a meeting (was five minutes into lesson time so probably true), but did say he's free to meet in the holidays
Anyway, he did text as promised but his text didn't answer the question I asked (I told him I'm free to go for a drink Easter weekend or the one at the end of the hols and he replied "yes"
), so I have since replied again asking did you mean yes Easter weekend, yes end of hols weekend or Yes both?? We'll see what comes back this time:D
Anyway, tonight I'm off out with workmates for drinks, well, not tonight exactly, more like in an hour or soI am driving though, desperately need to find a garage with some petrol though, I have a quarter of a tank at the moment and the nearest 20 garages that I know of are all closed :mad:

Morning all, a good night out last night, shattered this morning though, only about 4 hours sleep
I did manage to find petrol, very expensive but at least the tank is full again. Theres the first £50 of Aprils budget gone :cool:

morning Benben, or rather afternoon, a slow start for us today as I have done my back in again gardening yesterday so we are now watching the first of four Harry Potters. My boy can't believe his luck. Two weeks off for him, I have the first week off and he is going to football accademy for the second week. It fits in with school hours,which are my work hours, and is a godsend for us single working mums. Wishing you a great holiday xxx:o0

Thankyou Mummymandy, I am knackered so an afternoon of watching Harry Potter films sounds marvellous
Well we've been to drama and tescos afterwards, far too much spending going on already£1.40 on the car park, £2.70 in superdrug, £9 in Boots, £3.50 in Starbucks, £2 in poundland and £41 in tescos
Not planning on venturing far today, just a chilling out with a bit of pottering and housework kinda dayMortgage Total: £50,720/ £75,000
