evening all
thanks for popping by all, i like to know i don't just incessantly ramble on to myself sometimes :rotfl:;)
Well the choir didn't happen and i feel a little :mad: and a little :dance: (ummm couldn't find a 'relieved' look haha) mainly mad because I walked to friend's house and she wasn't ready, had ordered herself a take away (a fellow dmp'er btw) and looked quite shocked to see me! She pleaded having a sieve brain for an escape route but wasn't washing with meso i told her under no circumstances would i be participating in any of her hair-brained schemes. ever. again. and huffed off............into the !!!!!!!g rain :doh::wall: was not a happy dfw
but once dried off and calmed down i realised i was actually relieved at not having to make a fool of myself in front of the entire group of women that go ...so i will let said friend stew, she has apologised, but i've ignored it. Just as she ignored me when i text her several times to see if she was ready :mad:!
So anyway back home, in p.j's and catching up on here & then maybe a bath & finish that book finally :rotfl:
Have to check on line banking but i think it can wait until tomorrow now

morning thank you lucky
after the torrential rain all evening though i was quite glad i stayed in
i'm such a homebird lol. Anyway I ended up with a nice hot bath, a glass of wine (for medicinal purposes you understand
) and 50 shades! Well i managed to finish the book and the end was quite unexpected so means i have to read book 2 now.......like NOW.
:rotfl:
Well checked bank and there are some dd's that haven't come out yet and should have done really :think: but then the sky dd came out on the 3rd rather than the 1st so perhaps everyone is just taking their time this month :cool:
I'm sat with a cup of tea :coffee: and noone is dressed, i have to leave the house in 30 mins and i've no motivation. My mild cold has turned into full on snot fest. Have blowed my nose 5,000 times this morning. have also done the kids about 20 gazillion times _pale_ so everyone is a little under the weather i think (including the actual weather outside, that looks paler than me !) ummm can't remember if i was actually going to make a point or not there.....:doh: i swear i have old timers at only 33:whistle:
Right anyway i tried to catch up with everyone's diaries last night but didn't get very far before my wifi cut off because the boys had over loaded our cheap rubbishy connection to the internet with the ps3 :rotfl: so i will do it today! Need some inspiration on what to do with the kids for zilcho money, no sun & at present no car :think::wall:!
hope everyone is good :AMORTGAGE BALANCE when we moved Aug 2024, £120,000. January 1st £118,267.06.

OOOh and feel free to think me a little (lot???) sad but i have 16 watchers on one item on ebay so am very excited
like so excited i keep refreshing the page to check :rotfl: i am wondering if 99p was a little low for the item, after all it is a vintage item and probably cost my parents a lot
oops, too late now i guess!
Disappointed only one bid so far though at 99p!
my total sales stand at £4.18 with 4 days left! Be nice if everything goesMORTGAGE BALANCE when we moved Aug 2024, £120,000. January 1st £118,267.06.

Book 2 is good
I am too looking for kids entertainment with no money and no car and bad weather! Surley it has to improve soon? I am gathering photos of bits to put on fb in the hope i can raise a few pennies for the bills / holiday. Car still not mended so not sure if we will get to my sisters for our hols yet
Hope your cold improvesMe, DD1 19, DS 17, DD2 14, Debt Free 04/18, Single Mum since 11/19

evening
Well my ebay items are doing ok for watchers.....wish i could say the same for actual bidders lol :rotfl: but i have a few days so won't panic just yet!
Have 25 watchers on one item :eek: and 3 bids but it is still only at £1 something :eek: I've listed another item that didn't sell on fb or gumtree.
Have ordered DD's school uniform today from m&s & also 6 shirts for ds1 as he's outgrown old ones. Was £85 :eek: but with 20% discount they have worked out to £68 with free delivery :T and 5% cashback from quidco :money:
Also had that appointment today i was going on about last week.......but till everything is confirmed/denied i won't say much:D but sounded like i could benefit from this!
Car went in and they had told us was £60 for half hour.....we got there and dh spoke to the mechanic and told him what he had already tried and so specified exactly where he wanted him to spend his half hour looking :T:money: we got back and the bill was £48 :T :j and car starts perfectly now! No more push starting it i hopeBut whilst i was distracting the little ones dh decided to ask about buying a brand new land rover :eek: yeah jog on, i don't think so!
like we could afford it even without the debt
but i let him think whatever he liked as when it comes down to it, 1) he can't get credit. 2) we've got no money spare
ummmmmm nothing else to report apart from those ma-hoosive spends!MORTGAGE BALANCE when we moved Aug 2024, £120,000. January 1st £118,267.06.

Glad your car is mended and well done on the uniform - looks like you saved a good amount
I have managed £23 worth of sales on fb today and was hoping to sell my soda stream to one of 2 ladies but the original post has vanished? Cant find it anywhere so advertised it again hoping they will get back in touch - that would be another £20. Got a flute to sell too but not sure how much to charge for that?
Anyway i am taking over your diary again - look forward to hearing any news if something comes from your meeting todayMe, DD1 19, DS 17, DD2 14, Debt Free 04/18, Single Mum since 11/19

take over as much as you like hun :rotfl:
If you go to the selling page on fb, on the main wall on the right hand side at the top of it (under the pics of everyone) there is a little magnifying glass, click on that and either put your name in and it will bring up all your posts so you can find the one you're looking for or put in the name of whatever you were selling and it will come up, i hthMORTGAGE BALANCE when we moved Aug 2024, £120,000.

Thanks - i look in the search on all of the groups i am with and it has vanished? I am wondering if the lady that started the post (she put wanted soda stream) has deleted it as there was another lady interested. I was still giving the OP first chance at it though? It was still there this morning but this evening it has gone
Anyway i put a note on there saying its still for sale. Already have another lady interested but will wait and see if the others pop up
With the car being mended next week OH wont be able to give me much money so this will be food / holiday funds. Hoping flute might do well but needs a clean and i cant find the silly silver polish stuff!Me, DD1 19, DS 17, DD2 14, Debt Free 04/18, Single Mum since 11/19
