Morning everyone
WelshWoofer - hope you're OK, sending (((hugs)))
OrangeFairy - I have my weekend off and tend to get up earlier when DD is at her dads for some reason??? I do that, create my shopping list on mysupermarket first!

Right, was up and at 'em this morning so here is my list:-

I already have:-
- Done 1x HC on 40 (this is hard for me as I am addicted to a 90 degree wash....don't ask!)
- Hung 2x HC on line to dry
- 1x HC in machine, throw from sofa a quilt mummy made me :T
- Had low carb breakfast from stores, including two sad looking rashers of bacon
- Thrown yesterdays clothes back on as am having a house/garden blitzing day today
- Chicken out the freezer defrosting

I need to:-
- [STRIKE]Check banking[/STRIKE]
- [STRIKE]Update diary on here/spending diary[/STRIKE]
- [STRIKE]Prep ebay stuff[/STRIKE]
- [STRIKE]Frantically ebay LOADS of stuff from 6pm onwards[/STRIKE] done this already
- [STRIKE]Put stuff in loft[/STRIKE]
- [STRIKE]Cut back rose around front door - keeps grabbing my hair when I leave for work in the morning![/STRIKE] :rotfl:
- [STRIKE]Weed back garden[/STRIKE] I can confirm stinging nettles still sting when you are a grown up
- Cut grass
- [STRIKE]Lunch from stores[/STRIKE]
- Continue to ignore the boy (love this expression NTBY) giving me hassle via text
- Listen to music on iPhone all day, must get the most of my subscription
- Wii fit later
- [STRIKE]Harvest courgettes[/STRIKE], [STRIKE]prep and freeze[/STRIKE]
- Cook curry from stores, plump out with veg and lentils
- [STRIKE]Urgh, DNMS just reminded me I REALLY need to hoof out my car and clean it...boo!!! [/STRIKE] Done!!! I am so happy I have done this, it looks great! Just need the energy to do the outside now!

This is more of a to-do list than an MSE list, BUT it will stop me from going out and driving into town/Mr T's and spending money!!!

Love to all on this beautiful Sunday!

Don't think I'm going to get a lot done this afternoon now. A friend has just rung me asking to come round for a "chat" she's just found out her ex (who SHE dumped a year ago because she didn't want to marry him when he asked) has gotten engaged to his girlfriend. Think she needs to be told to man up, can't be bothered with this today, I am being so productive and she's gonna really slow me down.

Afternoon everyone

Ally-hope you feel better soon
WW- sorry to hear your news, take care.

Today I have:

• Made all the girls breakfast from stores DD1 had friend staying and DD2 had hers to stay too although they were supposed to be camping out in the garden they trooped in house at 11.30 last night- I was quite glad really as I would have ended up in the tent with them.
• Moved DD2 and her friends into bedroom and cleared the bombsite they had left in the living room
• Washing done
• survey

Still to do:

• check banking/e-mails
• hang out washing
• dinner from stores
• go and visit my sis and neices before they go on hols

Have a good day everyone.

I will also:

• [STRIKE] clean out chickens in exchange for some lovely fresh eggs[/STRIKE] done, and four eggs in return
• [STRIKE] hang washing outside as it looks lovely so far[/STRIKE] done, and back in and bedding back on the bed
• go to allotment with a snack and flask of coffee and get some work done
• freezer dive for dinner tonight - possibly poached fish
• [STRIKE] definately an NSD like yesterday[/STRIKE] done

I did well with two things from my 101 things list yesterday; I might be able to cross them off tonight. It would be nice to get an update from those others of you who joined in, even if it's just to say you're all slacking!

I also made bread, blanched and froze three bags of allotment peas which I picked on Friday and did a balance transfer of £800 from a 17.9% CC to on with a 6.7% for the life of the balance with only £20 fee.

On the 101 things list I've finished one so far and will finish another in a couple of hours when the paint's dry. See my diary thread for details... https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/2648105

Happy and excited stitchy! :D

Welsh - i am so sorry about you and OH. Am i right in remembering you got married last year?

I hope the separation is the right thing for both of you. Sounds like you feel better for it. I'm sorry it didn't work out though. xxx

Its almost 2 years ago now - time flies.
No-one else is involved and its been very amicable (he popped around today for an hour to collect more stuff).
Still a sad time though but I'm sure it will all work out in the end.
