Slow but sure NP. although don't think I will win the race!

LBT legs bums & tums,...... bum still hurts.
Zumba tonight which prefer dancing like a looney to the plank anyday.

Missed it again today as went to school swim gala, dd3 came 2nd in her heat and 3rd overall in backstroke.

HelenDaveKids

managed HUTH today, yay.
Also 3000/4000 words so getting there. Short of ideas for last 1000 though.
Stayed in all day, as lots of extra children however got a speeding ticket through post, can't believe it!! In fact initially thought was a mistake as generally very speed aware. clucking bell. didnt see a camera and tend to be careful at all times so Grrrrr. Bloody speed awareness course an option, was doing 38 according to letter, gutted as cant believe i was!

Sorry to hear about the speeding ticket, so frustrating.....

Happened to me once, I was doing 48..... I thought I was in a 60 but there had been some accidents and they changed the limit. I was with my mum in the car and I guess I must have been distracted..... Taught me a lesson. Must have been about 12 years ago....

Have a lovely weekend

Thanks Lula. Cross with self and still surprised as although there isnt a permanent speed camera, I honestly believe I stick to the limits. Must have been counting OP's or something and mind wandered. Have filled in the forms to post on monday.

Had everyones hair cut friday afternoon with a wee bit of colour for me as sneaky grey needs attention, my new mobile lady who goes to one of my exercise classes and it came to £50 for everyone.

Only 15 items sold, and most for 99p or less so morgage still intact unfortunately and will only have a teeny weeny dint in it, will post as many as paid on Monday before submitting total, as will make a tiny bit on postage and still have 13 items finishing tomoz. Not overly bothered, have only spent time as all stuff wouldnt have thought twice in putting in charity bag before.

Have just done quite a big asda shop (with free delivery when you buy a compressed deodrant which cost me £1.75 - code t7 am c9 37) which has again blown my grocery budget but we got to eat! Been a little naughty and booked delivery whilst Im out (on purpose) so that it will all be nicely put away by the time I get in.

Working overtime long day tomoz but its my job 2 (which is on a zero hours contract due to other jobs now being ft). So although longday, its a 8.30 start rather than 7 so I will wake up naturally at 7 rather than beep beep beep at 5.15. However on the downside finish at 9pm.

Cleaned and ironed but no assignment done.

Now for a quick shower and then time for a nice bit of paddy... no likey no lighty....

I feel your pain for speeding HDK - a couple of years ago I received points and fine for going over railway track - stupid, stupid, stupid. My mind was elsewhere and will certainly never be so daft again:eek:

I'm seriously considering shopping online as I appear to be back to my bad habit of overspend and chucking out out of date food or having extreme amounts of similar items - not because they're on special offer, but because of mindless shopping:cool:

At least eBay sales so pennies made on decluttering:T

I love the fact that you booked the delivery time for when you will be out, well done!!

Natty - how do you accidentally go over a railway track? Your mind really must have been wandering....

HelenDaveKids

Hope you werent in your pj's Np!
I once got to work and was asked how bad were the roadworks, I responded that I hadnt seen any but on the way home, they were huge section of road closed off. I just prayed that I did stop at the lights!
Have also on frequent occassions been unable to tell people what the weather is like outside, as I genuinely havent a clue.

I was driving back from mates on Tuesday after having a lunch and gossip, wasn't in a rush as only had assignment waiting at home. So really can't believe was speeding. Clearly (as my DH says) I was.

Have tried to wean self off grocery delivery but the lure of a freebie added in that I won't have to put away was just too great! Tend to do at least 1 asda a month anyway to stock up my sp teabags and yogurt!

Have packaged up all the items paid for. Will hopefully do some more tomorrow when others have paid. Did manage an extra sale as someone who bought something emailed and asked if would combine postage (which I had stated I would) but unfortunately didnt see message till after had ended, so replied and agreed to add to invoice and another item out from my utility. Every penny counts...

HelenDaveKids

Long day done. Busy but did manage to practice some skills that I haven't done a lot recently, and feel almost competent again!

Packed lots more ebay parcels ready for PO tomorrow when I got home. Havent made much, about £20 plus any extra postage shrapnel but still feel its more productive than just charity shop dropping. (have charity shopped 2 big bags as well this week).

No adpoints available and no surveys available apart from toluna and can't beat theirs at mo.

Extra shift tomoz but a twilight so 4.30pm start,

nattypants

£20 isn't too shabby for clutter HDK:T

HelenDaveKids

Don't think it'll cover my speeding ticket but its a bit towards!

Very Very busy shift (job 2), fortunately my role is more air traffic controller rather than actually pilotting, but still a bit arrggghhhhh in places.

Posted all my stuff this morning, just a few still need paying for. Thats my ebay done for month though, once theyve gone.

went to zumba first thing, 2 still sleeping when left. On return we togged up and went for a long walk down muddy paths, girls in wellies and thoroughly enjoyed. My shift was twilight so didnt leave till 4pm. Non spend day bar postage but not counting that as obviously paid for.
