I think I do smell today as I'm wearing BF's jumper as its cold

Had today of work, so pottered around the house, ironing/cleaning

Counted the slummy jar and had £33 so have paid that in at the bank and have just OP'ed the amount to the mortgage

Had 3 vouchers £5 off £40, £4 off £40 and £3 of £30, so have managed to use all of them up today on food, Christmas present for BF and petrol, so happy with that. Especially as I got a few bits for Christmas (booze) to get the cost up. Don't think the woman behind was to impressed with me splitting the shopping to use 2 vouchers

Finally put curtains up in the dining room, the ones that were left, where just for show and stapled round the curtain pole, so we can shut them now and keep some of the heat in.

Bathroom plodding along, looking really lovely, can finally relax that the tiles all go together, just got to decide on what colour grout

Bathroom still not finished, but have most of the floor tiles down and the bath is in the room. Keep looking in as I walk past with a

Spendy day yesterday

Spent £208.10 in M&S but used £205 in vouchers

New fridge/freezer delivered, looks horrible as its supposed to be fitted in a cupboard but it will do for now

Dinner in Ikea and bought a bin for the study and some small storage jars as I'm going to attempt to make some chutney for Christmas/New Year, so that was another £22 spent there

And today we are off to shoot zombies (in the freezing cold) :eek:

No :rotfl:

Zombie killing was great and scary, running round woods and an abandoned manor house in December doesn't sound like fun but it wasn't so cold with all the adrenalin pumping through. I was nearly eaten by a zombie as my shoe came off in a load of mud and it took me ages to find it and put it back on

Bathroom is all finished and look lovely, in fact so lovely we haven't tried out it out yet, so must force BF to use the whirlpool bath as he insisted on getting it.

God-daughter has already said she wants a bath when she stays over, in a fit of madness I have invited all my god-children (5 off them) for a Christmas sleepover just before the big event, so they can be our practice meal. Must pre-warn the neighbours there might be a lot of noise from them

Still need to buy presents and I'm currently in the middle of writing all the Christmas cards that need to go in the post, but have wrapped all that we have already got

Only 7 days left at work for me and 4 days for BF then holibobs

Now THERE'S something you don't expect to read on a MFW site, and I thought HDK wrote random posts.......:D

It is MFW :rotfl: as the BF and I said we would always do something fun (and expensive) that we wouldn't normally do whilst we were on the MF journey

At least zombie killing didn't hurt as much as when we went hovercraft racing (my thighs ached for days)

zombie killing sounds amazing (but scary!!! :eek::eek:)

Definitely important to have fun along the way!! :beer:

Yes, Zombie killing definitely sounds like fun. Nearly as good as morgage slaying:rotfl:
