afternoon

Well i've tried to update my spreadsheet after not keeping a spend diary nor even a scrap of paper with my spends on for nearly a week (oops :eek:)

A NSD today :j first of the week i think!

Kids have been to a friends house this afternoon, so i crawled into bed to catch up on sleep just got rudely awakened 2 hours later...as they wanted to give them back. damn :rotfl:

So salad & jacket potatoes for dinner nice'n'easy and as i'm still half asleep that's all good!

Ummm haven't bought any food for the week apart from milk & bread (literally that was it- oh and cereal for kids!) so will have to go....we're absolutely broke though until our money from the shares goes in! Then we need to pay back all the accounts i've robbed for vaccinating pup & petrol etc!!!

Ooooh and not sure if i actually told you his name yet (divvy brain) it's Duke (or Dukie as i like to call him ) DH & DS1 & I finally agreed on something (i still love the name teddy though:( !)

think that is it, still haven't got round to writing my ppi claims out i'm convinced there isn't much there though lol so just keep putting it off!!! Ohhhhh and i got a cheque for my mortgage exit fee :D:D:D:D for the grand sum of £4 .......yes that's right not £40 or £400 just FOUR POUNDS :eek::eek::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: that must be THE worst payback in all of history :eek:

Oh well only cost me a stamp so i'm still up :rotfl:;)

£4 wow dont spend it all in one go lol. Not tried claiming things back yet. Maybe once tax returns all sorted and out of the way i may look into this, although for £4 not sure its really worth it

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: no not really sure it was either lol, although to be fair it took 5 mins to write that letter (template on here!)....it's the PPI ones that look challenging and if i get back something like 36p i will be fuming so keep putting off

Morning!

Well i have one poorly little boy has had a temperature since yesterday -am suspecting a tad touch of heat stroke. He fell asleep on his slide in the boiling sun :eek::eek:!! So i've been up since 5 am with him! Got someone coming to look at a dinnerware set i'm selling later. Never used, she hasn't made any sort of offer yet, i'm hoping it's not a silly offer as the money is going to mum. Mum gave it to me and told me to use it (brand new) but i don't really need it and she could do with some spare pennies but has no clue how to work a digital camera never mind put things up for sale :rotfl: so i hope she doesn't mind me selling it!

Need food, but honestly, i can't be bothered so am hoping i can eek out the food till tomorrow by which time it will be the weekend nearly and i can hopefully get enough food to last till child benefit is due on Monday! My shares money must be due in some time soon as well. I may get dh to call up about that. Although i've told dh i don't want to waste it on silly every day things -you know like food :eek::rotfl: And besides i owe a lot of bank accounts money by now :eek: so have to pay them back first!

Right will be back bit later! :A stuff to do....

debtfreewannabe321

checked bank, all the savings are in :j so have moved them all into accounts where they should be! Have £30 left now and DH is throwing a strop because he wants a BBQ. Thing is he would happily spend £200 on food & drink & charcoal and i'm not happy for that to happen for one silly BBQ (that i'm not even that keen on!) so anyway money moved quickly before he spots we're £500 up :rotfl:

DS2 asleep on sofa, as is Duke, and DD now up so i'm exhausted and could really do with a nap :eek: but not going to happen now so an early night i think!

Want to sell a few more bits before payday, mainly to make money obviously :money: but also to make some room in my bedroom! I am sick of tripping over my ebay / fb / gumtree stuff :eek::eek:!!!

Have 3 watchers on my only item on ebay :rotfl: it's a £15 starting price so we'll see if any buy. I often notice things like this are watched so people know how to price their items up!!!

Right off again, feel like a butterfly flitting here and there (if i only were as pretty as one i'd be happy :rotfl: instead i'm sporting trousers rolled down on the waist as i've eaten too many pies and they won't do up. blood shot eyes & nice red arms from yesterday!!)

Hope ds feels better soon. and loving the name duke for the doggy.

I agree that a bbq wouldnt be right to spend your money on, especially £200. and if your not keen that it makes even more sense as you or your ds probably wouldnt eat alot.

Good luck with selling some more stuff
