Making chicken feed of my mortgage

  • Lovely Mr MWC has sent me flowers - cream, mauve & bright pink roses :smileyhea

    I signed up for WW and went to my first meeting - bought a monthly pass for £10 instead of £21.45 and then got £12.50 TCB :T

    For convenience, I went to Mr M rather than Mr S and spent £6.64 cash on fruit and 1/2 price toothpaste. Also spent £4 L2S vouchers on frozen smoked haddock.

    How lovely. I got roses today as well - still trying to work out what Mr GG's done :rotfl:.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
    :) Mortgage Balance = £0 :)

    Today I planted the forgotten about bulbs, cleaned the chicken coop, bought chicken feed, pottered around the house and stuck to the diet :)

    Yes - he said he does appreciate what I do for him even if he doesn't show it :kisses3: (which he doesn't :rotfl:). I think that's the 4th time in 17 years - but I may be doing him a disservice and it's 5 times :D.

    Hope you're feeling better tomorrow. Is LRH laying?

  • Still full of cold and I wasn't thinking straight (or adding up in my head) when I popped into Sainsburys on the way home from work... total = £6.80 so I used £5 nectar points and £1.80 cash

    Still over £100 of nectar points left :T
