Weds 10th Aug - what small DFW things will you do today??!

Chrisblue1962

I have signed up for a "Car Free Day" on 22nd August at my workplace. My employers, a local authority, are going to provide a free one day travel pass for persons who usually come to work by car :T

This means I'll save just over £10.00

hi guys a late posting for me today - I happened to have an incident with a load of fermented grapes yesterday which has left me pretty ineffective all day :o:o roll on a nice bath, mani, pedi & facial in a bit when the house is empty to recuperate & an early night!

therefore my list is pretty sad today...

• brekkie, lunch & dinner from stores
• egg & chips for the boys for tea - cheap and easy! :T
• quick look through the fridge to make sure food gets eaten up & not perish - have been doing much better at this recently :money:
• hang up washing, give a couple of bits a bit of attention before putting in the machine
• start a new book - The Hitch Hikers Guide to the Gallaxy (off of my 101 list )
• call ex mil using free mins after 7 as she has come out of hospital today :A
• read martin's email
• dig out thank you card to my friend to post tomorrow - kinda dfw as she loaned us her flat in Amsterdam a couple of weeks ago!
• sew buttons on things needing repair - I think I'm beyond taking things up today!
• email friend on fb to organise getting together
• checked banking & shifted funds
• updated sig

actually not so shabby afterall!

Morning All, hope you don't mind a newbie joining in

Today I shall mainly be at work (clearly not getting much done right now!!) but here are my DFW for today

• [STRIKE]Chase O2 - they deducted £10 from my bank account, but haven't yet topped up my Mobile Broadband after telling me the transaction had failed. I've faxed them over a bank statement showing the money going in. Just hope they accept an internet statement and upload my data before I need to use it tomorrow[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]Lunch - homemade soup I stole from my parent's freezer. I go to my parent's for tea on a Monday, it's always some type of HM soup and HM bread and there is always some of last week's in the freezer which none of them ever eat.[/STRIKE]
• After work I have Slimming World (aka fat club)... I usually drive the mile and a half there but may walk - however we are suffering torrential rain again today so that is doubtful
• [STRIKE]At fat club, stay within target range so I don't have to pay £4.95[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]Tea will possibly be some HM lasagne I have in the freezer, altho I didn't take it out so maybe not... It will be something cheap and cheerful anyway [/STRIKE]

Happy Hump Day all

Hmm, so the only thing I didn't get done was walking to fat club. In my defence I got stuck in roadworks for over half an hour so was already late, and the torrential rain - well I wasn't walking anywhere, got soaked walking to my car!!

Okies here's what I managed to get done today:

• Made a big stew for dinner which will also be my main staple tomorrow
• Used only ingredients which needed to be eaten and were discounted from previous shop
• Walked to post box rather than drove
• Posted old prepay gas card with a chance to win money for doing so
• Spent some time on coupon forums printing/collating for big savings on tomorrow's shop
• Spent at least an hour hunting for best deal on Frontline spot-on rather than buying first I found
• Had WM on over night and put clothes on CH in sun to dry for free
• Increased efficiency of fridge by fishing the remains of the tonic (added a little gin to help with this)
• Had MP3 player on for background music instead of large wasteful television
• Asked friend to repay some money owed and got it this time

I'm preparing for a mad one tomorrow lol Gonna spend some time decluttering the last few bits of the bedroom tonight. Decided to give saleable stuff to charity shop rather than eBay it. Feels nice to do that now the changeover is just round the corner where I'll be totally DF.
