    That is about the only thing I'd thought of and making him use cash - is only a problem where his work is concerned as he has to go out with clients and pick up the tab for meals and activities and then get it back in expenses from work (although he does get most it repaid the same or next day in cash) Reckon if he had a certain amount each week he could budget around that and any expenses reclaimed would refill the pot so to speak. I don't really want to have to do all the food shopping but might have to as he seems incapable of following a menu plan/shopping list as well.

    I'm back, so need to start unpacking and catching up on the laundry. No fresh food in the house so need to do some meal planning. My parents have just called to say they're 30 minutes away so I need to eat breakfast (baked beans) and shower and dress.

    Windows are open airing the place - the plaster has dried over the week in the spare room so I can give that a good clean over the next few days and get it ready to paint. And it looks like we brought the sun back with us from Barcelona :D

    Ben 10 movie is on so ds is happy, dd and dh have done Remembrance Sunday and meal planned soup for lunch and pork chops for tea. Dh has apologised for being carp with money and is only having cash from now on and my olds have just rung to say I have won another £100 on their church lottery (the second time this year) Dh reckons its good timing to get us through the next week or so, I reckon it's mine and he can bog off:p.

    Off to rampage 15mins through the house and schoolwork - will also return with a list of things I have done whilst not on here.
