La_escocesa

Hi everyone :wave:

I'm just checking a few bits and bobs online before I go get organised for my holibags. So not v dfw at all :eek: but hey ho...

It was my 30th at the weekend :eek: so I got lots of birthday money to put towards the holiday and it'll be pretty cheap when we're there - staying with friend's family etc.

DFW-wise today -
NSD @ home
Crochet for friend's baby pressie
Eating leftovers
Shared a bath with OH in the name of money saving :rotfl:

Big hugs everyone xxx

Hi everyone, and thanks for starting it off kjp. Glad to see you had a lie in!!!

Hope you had a lovely birthday La escocesa and welcome sparkle, looks like you're doing really well so far!

Haven't been on the thread over the weekend as all of us have been home but it's so yuk today had to cancel the trip to the beach . But have/will:

• paid £20 off the cc as would have spent this much had we gone out.
• breadmaker on, dried fruit soaking for tea loaf.
• did a 1id1 run.
• 7 things to list on fleabay as it's still free listing tonight.
• Put £10 in the piggybank towards summer holiday fund.
• baked tates and beans for lunch, risotto for tea using stock from last week's chicken.
• fancied a treat so bought a bottle of beer for £1.19 for us to share!!!

Enjoy the last of the weekend everyone, and if there's any dry weather could you send some to Devon cus we're supposed to be picnicing tomorrow!:D

Update: so excited, DH is loading my favourite albums onto my phone so I don't need to search out the CDs when he takes the iPod to work. Best Easter present I could have wished for, and free!!!!

Hola!
Happy belated birthday LaE - hope it was a good one.
Not much of a mse day today as I've been out catching up with friends, however:
Checked bank
Took cash out to visit friends to stop me overspending
Avoided supermarket to stop unecessary spending
Washed sofa cushions (drying on airer as it's piddling with rain)
Visited a museum (free)
Think that's about it for me.

No spend day for me today. Had a lie in, made my meals from food I had and watched Netflix and went for my first 'run' of Week 2 of the Couch to 5k plan to keep me entertained. Good day.

Good afternoon everyone. I can’t believe I’m just up at this time on a Monday.

[STRIKE]Do volunteer work[/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]Take dm home[/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]All meals from stores[/STRIKE]

[STRIKE]Work on wedding related tasks[/STRIKE] Invites are now posted and guest list written so that I can keep track of who is coming.
[STRIKE]Do freelance work that is in for today[/STRIKE] Another £25 in the wedding fund.
[STRIKE]Pay some money off loan[/STRIKE] Another £100 paid off.
[STRIKE]Daily clicks[/STRIKE]

[STRIKE]Look for some good deals on ebay, as present box is looking rather empty after the weekend. [/STRIKE] Had a look but did not buy anything.

I think that is everything that I need to get done today. Hope everyone has a good Easter Monday.

Had a productive day today as almost everything is done that was on my list and another £100 paid off my loan :jgetting there slowly. I have worked out that I should have it cleared within another couple of months if I keep up the payments, then I can focus on the other debts.
Back to work tomorrow so think I will get an early night as I think I am in the process of getting the cold as feeling rather rough tonight.
