Living for the Present...after all who doesn't love a gift!

I am hoping my tenant is a good one, I dont want one with a naughty cat and an aversion to paying bills!

Skint I hope your tenant is a good one too, i'd never wish all the troubles i've had on anyone :eek:!

Done the banking this morning had £40 in there extra and got all excited :j then realised that the dd that was due out hadn't gone out yet! Hoping it goes out soon so I don't forget about it and accidentally spend it . I was going to do a shop today but my dad has asked if we can go over from Wednesday till end of week. Only a few days but I will go I think. I could do with a mini break from washing, hoovering, cleaning, pulling a 4 & 5 year old apart :eek: so I won't bother with the food and instead today might be another NSD I say 'might' as I do need to pop to the pharmacy for my prescription so will need to pay for my 3 monthly prescription charges at some point ...!

DH popped home last night - with a dishwasher :j so I also need to buy some things to get it running including a hose....may leave it now until after i've been to dad's house though.... it's an old b0sch dishwasher and looks to be on it's last legs tbh but it will do for now and cost us nothing so for that i'm thankful and DH's mum have him some money to cover his train ticket so we should be where we were before he went, money-wise! He should also be home today with ds1.

I've hung a wash out this morning as it was ready for me when I woke up. It's only taken me 1 year to figure out how to use the timer I guess I should be thankful the 'new' dishwasher has only 3 settings :cool::rotfl:

No change on the savings/debt front today. Everything is the same. DD for SC went out this morning so another hundred off the debt but it won't show on their end for a few weeks yet. Once all the f&f's have been sorted out I will look at upping my payments for the last few debts we might have left, but would like to see how many we have before I do anything. Best news ever could be that we have none and are DF in time for Christmas & 2014 wouldn't that be grand!

Ta-ta for now :A

Morning DFW,

Going to your dads sounds like a plan... not only will you save on the above you mentioned but gas and electric aswell with you not being there!!!

Yay to the DW! Do you have one at the minute? I love mine, could serioulsy not do without it! Will your washing stuff work in it or will you have to buy some?

Great news on the DWasher!

And what a lovely thought , to be debt free by Christmas. I hope you manage to achieve it.

having read about problems with rent I am happier now that we went down the holiday let route but I need much better planning than last year to get us through the Winter months.

That really would be great to be debt free by the new year. one of our debts is £43 and i am desperate to get rid of that one but know they dont like us doing it - may give them a call and see

Pooh - I've just purchased a soap dispenser thing that goes on the wall for conditioner, shower gel and shampoo as fed up of the OH using an entire bottle of shower gel every two weeks...that'll teach him!

Yay to DFbNY that'll be fantastic

Hello !

I dropped my netbook down the stairs yesterday luckily it's still working but it's a bit dodgy sounding! I'm so clumsy

Spendy day. ..unfortunately couldn't be avoided 2 pairs of shoes and one pair of wellies AND they weren't even school related, bahhumbug! Kids have been moaning for weeks about shoes pinching them and me in money saving mode tuned out to it, until dd toes poked through her old pair yesterday! Oops! So she's a new sparkly pink pair in a size and a half bigger than the last ones now ds2 was only half a size bigger so I just bought him some cheap summery ones for now. Think I will get them measured for school ones again in a couple of weeks!

Spent all day cleaning, ironing, washing and running around! So tired too ss didn't sleep well last night, up side to that was I saw the meteor shower 2am
seemed to be the 'happening' time for it lol ....dh has just brought me a glass of eine so going to have that and pray it's easier to sleep tonight! Will catch up with you all when I can as off to dad's house tomorrow

Enjoy your time at your dads x
