Mandz1 is finally sorting it out!

Well i forced the kids out in the wind. Got gas and electric and my paint pad. Put £40 in bank which was made up of bags of change. Dont know whether to save it up or pay it off a debt straight away.
I have done the second coat in my bedroom, only took about half an hour to do 2 big walls, so much easier and quicker with a paint pad.
kids have a cake from greggs for after their dinner. I brought an apple danish and have already ate it, naughty me.

Kids have got all their train tracks out, so looks like i will be cleaning again later. Will also sweep and mop kitchen floor later as it is getting dirty.

Had a phone call this afternoon from the council, they are sending someone to do my bedroom ceiling tomorrow, so hopefully i will be finally ok to get my bedroom finished (except for carpet, have to save for that).
Just had dinner and looking forward to watching the fat fighters and the biggest loser tonight.

Really cant get motivated today, just want to sleep.

My eldest is back at school tomorrow, so need to sort out his clothes so they are ready.

I have been doing more painting in the house and yesterday i picked up some wallpaper for my bathroom. Need to get some paste so i can get it put up.

Put 6 things on ebay last night as its free listing. going to sweep and mop the kitchen later, get the wet clothes put up to dry. Wash pots, clean the boys bedroom . Was going to do some more painting today but really cant be bothered so will wait until my eldest is back at school.

Craving naughty food, probably because i was a bit naughty yesterday.

Money isnt looking great, have about £30 left for the week, but will have to try and survive.


I am meant to be going out next saturday night with some mates around town, but dont know if i want to, i cant really afford it, dont have anything to wear and im am so tired recently, i dont know if i could stay up all night

My eldest is back at school today, he didnt like getting up early, but he was once dressed and on our way. Hope he likes the new school.

I have done a second coat of paint in my closet room on 3 walls, havent got enough paint to do the 4th wall, or i might just get some wallpaper for that wall.

1 item on ebay has 3 watchers and 1 bid. The other 5 have nothing so far, but they dont end till saturday night anyway. Plus some are pick up only and i know that puts some people off or they are too far away to collect.

Hi Mandz, just wondering what is a paint pad? Do you have a link so I can have a look at it online?

Well done with the dept repayments! You never seem to give up!

Less mess than a roller and quicker than a brush.

Have been wallpapering all morning, my bathroom, need to get another roll of wallpaper as all i have left is 2 pieces to do and the leftovers of paper that i have are not long enough. grrr.

can you not just go into the shop and take a 'sample' which is big enough to finish the wall off :shhh::whistle:

mandz1

Not really i need 2 pieces to finish it, both ceiling to floor length think someone will notice if i take loads. Its only £3.99 a roll with 20% off at the moment so shouldnt cost me too much

I am on day three of the 30 day shred, thighs really hurt, not as bad today as they were yesterday, just hope that jillian can promise her 20lbs in 30 days and then i will know that the pain is worth it.
Food shopping has been done for the week, gas and electric have been topped up, i have sorted out toys, bokks and videos from the boys bedroom and sorted them into kept, chucked and sell.
1 watcher on one of my ebay items and 6 on another with one bid.
Need to sort out my clothes and find out what fits me, what has had too much wear and needs throwing away , and what i can give away/sell. Dont think there will be anything in there to sell tbh but it will do me good to clear some stuff out.

Ok so my mum has booked a uk holiday for us at the end of july, so need to start saving for this, although it is only uk and the seaside, i will still need quite a bit of money as having to young boys do not come cheap. May have to ask her to keep the money safe for me as i will end up spending it myself and will have nothing when we go away.

I have sorted out what payments will be made next week. Rossendales will get paid monday, lewis and daniel silverman on thursday. any left over will go on overpayments on ncc and i owe my mum for my mobile bill which is £15

Next week i have a jobcentre appointment for a work focused interview, and wednesday i have the dentist.

Today i have painted the bathroom, well two walls, need to wash pots later. Have been watching cars 2 with my boys.

I went to blockbuster today as i wanted to watch the inbetweeners movie and so went to sign up and the bloke said if i had a email address i could get a 14 day trial, which means i can get a movie each day for free for 14 days. I have told the boys that they can have a kids dvd tomorrow, but tonight instead of going out (cant afford to), then it will be a night in curled up in front of the telly watching the inbetweeners movie, so the boys better not play up and go to bed on time lol.

Ebay finishes tonight, deffo going to sell one item, not sure about the other 5 though.
