Hi everyone,
RFTA - Table cover looks great
Well done!
DNMS - Nice work on the bargains!
Unfortunately I've lost half the day to sleep again
I'm still a bit annoyed from my shift last night as I have no idea when I need to work on Xmas eve now. First they had me down for 6-10, then last night I was asked if I could do 5-9, which was perfect as then I can still see my niece & sister, & can go out & see friends afterwards, I just miss out on dinner with the folks if they are not going abroad this year. But then I was told I am needed from 7-midnight, & depending on how busy they are until close...if that's the case I miss out on seeing the folks & friends, not happy since I've not actually been asked just told >.< It's not a normal working day for me & I appreciate as it is xmas eve they need more than their usual number of staff in...but there are better ways of going about things!
Today I have/will:-- Food from stores
- Free dinner round the in laws this evening
- Charge phone via pc
- Heating off as long as possible, lots of layers instead
- Daily clicks etc on Sw@gbucks
- Need to log calories using free app
- Check online banking
- Surveys
- Declutter & flylady
- Check for more mystery shopping opportunities
- Take a photo for NUS card
- Enter some comps
- Thinking about what to get people for Xmas & how best to stick to my budget for DH...
- Asked DH to call for more info about a car boot sale taking place next month
- Need to update grocery challenge
- Enter receipt details into Mr T's price check
- Washing on eco setting using less than the recommended dose of washing liquid
- Hang up to dry

Woohoo! :j We've booked the car boot sale now, we've got an indoor pitch so no need to worry about the weather & I've just asked on FB if anyone has a clothes rail we can borrow. Have any of you bright people got any ideas on what else we could use to display clothes if we can't get hold of one? I don't really want to buy a new one for £8 as that's the cheapest I've seen it!:idea:Debt at July 2012: £12,862.57 :eek:
