    Plan
    work 9:15 - 10:45 done
    buy rolls for ds and his mates done
    cook rice for tonights tea done



    Food
    weetabix and sugar
    tuna salad
    chilli and rice
    bag of crisps
    can of coke (naughty but needed the caffeine to stay awake)

    I had hoped to pay another £30 off the cc, but ds was complaining that his school jumper is doing a peter crouch, so i'm going to have to buy him a new one. I keep hoping that he will stop growing soon, but at 15 that is unlikely.

  • Hi MsSparkle
    Thanks for popping in, it's not the most intresting diary but i find if i don't write on it i tend to fall off the wagon. Well done on clearing the tesco card - getting to that zero balance gives you such a buzz, don't you think?


    So i decided to pay the £25 i had left from this weeks weekly money, so ds school jumper will have to come out of next weeks money (week starts friday). So tomorrow i get to drag a grumpy teenager to the schoolwear shop, and seeing that he has to go in on a non-pupil day for 20 mins for a french oral exam he is going to be in a foul mood - lucky lucky me.:cool:

    Note to self - purse owes card £40

    nearly had a nsd, but oh has caught the cold i had last week so i needed to buy more cold and flu tablets:(

    cheque cleared for ski trip, cheques for scout camp and subs to clear. need to check nationwide account and balance monthly budget.

    i'm working full days wed and thurs so the only dfw things i can do is curb any silly spends.
