Well its another grey, overcast, yucky day:mad:.
No real plans for today, was hopeing it was going to be a brighter day so we could get out somewhere for a walk, we will see what its like after lunch.
Housework this morning and have a huge pile of ironing that needs sorting, will someone please give me a kick up the bum and tell me to sort it out.
Need to portion out left over pasta bake from yesterday and freeze for OH lunches. Have some beef mince and some aubergines in the fridge that need using up, thinking of a sort of moussaka:o, will look for a recipe and adapt as i'm sure i don't have all the ingrediants and i'm not going shoping to buy them.
Still £2 off payout on onepoll:mad:, hardly any surveys now i'm close to payout:(, surprise surprise!
Right off to get dressed and clean kitchen.0 -
Morning penny
Weather same here...miserable.
I know how you feel. I need a kick up the b*m too. So I'm sending you a good boot and you can do the same.
I have a load of washing on. Put some laundry away but need to clean all bathrooms today. Hubby on holiday for 2 weeks from today and we are heading away next week so all clothing etc to be sorted for us. So need to get me b*m of the seat and do something. The 'kids' are now making breakfast so thats another mess!!!!!!!!!!!! Saying that they do tidy up after themselves.
Got £10 Tesco Voucher from V opinions this week and I think I will save it up for Christmas (oh no) groceries.
Happy cleaning and cooking"You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream"C. S. Lewis

Sending you a kick up the bottom, i have got the ironing board and iron out, see i'm getting there:p.
My hubby is having a lazy day today, bless him he is shattered, he is currently sat in front ofr the wii with the kids playing mario kart, at least they are all quiet and out of the way;).0 -
Ironing is done and just needs putting away, have started moussakka and it smells yummy, have bulked it out with lots of peppers, onions and courgettes;).
House is nice and quiet as kids have gone out on their bikes and OH is cleaning his car out.
Need to make a cake for OH to take camping tomorrow and going to make another banana cake to go in freezer.
Right off to check Onepoll, still not a single survey off them today:(.0 -
Hi Pennywise
One Poll have been slow all week, it must be because more people at home due to the holidays and can get there quicker than we do!
I'm on £27.90 with them so a bit longer to go than you.
I still haven't done my ironing this week, it will need a good blitz at the weekend!0 -
Hi Pennywise, did you get nearer to the payout with onepoll? Im at £24.05 with pureprofile so just 95p to go! Il be checking in every day now!!
Hope your having a nice weekend xxMummytogirls x0 -
Morning another grey wet one, given up on any sort of a summer now.
MTG thanks for popping in, on£poll is currently at £38 and is driving me nuts as i don't seem to be getting any paid surveys just ones for comps, hope you get there with pureprofile this week.
Not really much to update, house is quiet as boys are on a fishing trip and are back sometime today, going to get the art/craft box out and make some cards with DD.
Yesterday i went to visit my gran, came away with some mince beef which is being used tonight in a cottage pie and some stork marg which i will use in some baking.
Yesterdays spends totalled £18 as DD had a horseriding lesson.
Not sure what i'm doing for the rest of the day, probably just housework and keeping DD entertained until OH gets home, do have a couple of items finishing on ebay, but don't expect to get much for them.
Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend.0 -
Hi Pennywise
I think you're right about summer - its over! Its dry and bright here but no sign of the elusive sun.
On£ Poll is frustrating, I think I've made 15p this week with them.
Enjoy your card making xx0 -
This week does seem to have been awfully slow on onepoll for actual paid stuff, although I do tend to always do the comp ones as in the dim and distant past I won a couple of ipod shuffles which I sold on so am reasonably confident with them at least that the prizes are still real ones!It’s not worth doing something unless someone, somewhere, would much rather you weren’t doing it.

Hi Penny
We have the sun today. House heating up with the sunshine beaming in. I was saying to hubby this morning it felt like autumn. I think summer is over before it even started. A few good days. At least we have September to look forward to. Normally gets good the minute kids go back to school.
Hope you have lovely day with dd.
take care
