Level One
Declutter the guff and put it where it belongs!
[STRIKE]Empty bins etc[/STRIKE]
Attack a frog!
Level Two
wipe the sofas
Vacuum the floors, including the stairs
Wipe the paintwork in the hallway and up the stairs
Level three
Wash any curtains/nets soft furnishings that need it
Vacuum under any furniture you can safely move
wipe and water any plants

Extras

1. Update spreadsheets/meal plans etc..
2. HHI
3. 15 minutes filing/shredding
4. Binbag dance!

can I remind you of one of my tips (not just you CY but all thread subscribers and lurkers!

Photocopy or scan ALL your cards (front and back) bank cards, credit cards, loyalty cards etc and leave it in a VERY safe place then when some toe-rag relieves you of your property you have access to all the phone numbers/membership numbers/account numbers.

have dealt with 2 frogs - dentist booked; chiropodist booked

Brilliant idea Valli, I'll add that to my toots list :beer:

Hugs Vanilla - I hope you get everything sorted

Afternoon all! :wave:

Hope were all ok today, and thanks again Pigpen and Toots for another week of motivation!

We were away on hols last week so the house, whilst relatively tidy, is a wee bit dusty and fusty...which needs sorting!

Level One
Declutter the guff and put it where it belongs!
Level Two
wipe the sofas
Vacuum the floors, including the stairs
Level three

Hope he didn't use First Money Direct. They scammed me for £99.99 admin and there's no loan.

Thanks everyone for the support. I've contacted one loan company which say they will refund in 5-7 working days but we'll see if they actual contact us. Another has said they will contact us and the last has a form to be printed out, filled in and sent back. I just hope there is no more. :(

Then i got a phone call from the NDCS about helping us go over DD's new statement (when it arrives) and that we'll have a big fight to get her to the school she wants to go. She thinks it will drag on for ages and will be appeal and tribrunal. Sounds abit scary to be honest and now i'm all worried about it..:( I was happy in my wee bubble there, thinking it wouldn't be too bad..:rotfl:

Right i'm gonna give the bank a ring and see if there is anything that can be done from there side, probably not but worth a try.

vanilla, speak to his parents, perhaps they can help with the payday loan at least

top made in record time:j

washing up done
now to declutter some food, the belly bears are getting noisy:rotfl:

vanilla

Off phone to bank and one was a flipping direct debit, so we're in tomorrow to cancel that. The other 2 have no phone numbers just email so it's the waiting game. :mad:

shellysue i'll help pay it over the next two weeks but i think i'll let him stew until the day before it is due. Maybe he'll think twice in the future. Me and hubby keep our money separate just for this reason. Then hubby can pay me back when the loans finished with and i have him back on track. I'm gonna take away the laptop and cards so he can't do anything else.

Right i best go think about doing some cleaning....:D
