Morning LL,

I think starting the buy things early for the baby is fine. Then at least you don't have a massive spend to do over a couple of months when you are heavily pregnant and tired.

Wish I still had some of my things as I would have posted them to you, but they are long gone .

How are you feeling today. Hope you have gotten the hang of snacking often to keep your blood sugar levels up.

I missed your post on people making comments - People can be so rude, you wait until you have a big bump in front of you, and the weird way everyone seems to think they are entitled to make odd comments and feel your bump :mad:. It used to drive me mad.

The strangest one I had, was a man behind me in the queue in the post office when I was heavily pregnant. Asked me if I was having a boy or a girl, I told him "A Girl" and he said he always found pregnant women to be very attractive.. Eugh Dirty old man .

Anyway on that odd note, I will leave you to have a nice day xx

Morning all,

so day before official pay day...and still have £11 in my bank. Thats after £15 petrol last night, and £5.99 on a Moses basket for baby (who is called twinklet) which i won on e*ay last night & i am collecting tonight.
so going to put that on to my credit cards (tomorrow when i know i have got through to day with out some crazy need to spend)

havent really got a lot else to report on today. having anice weekend over at my mums this weekend. was meant to be going south to see hubs family but don't want to waste £70 on petrol when we're never made to feel welcome. So i'm going to to go into town with my mum & hubs is doing some jobs for mum round the house and then she'll make us a nice dinner mmmm

Then on Sunday picking up some drawers for twinklets room which someone at work is giving us for free

Afternoon LL

Great bargain on the moses basket for Twinklet :T:T. Well done.

Well done on saving the £70 on petrol. Thats alot of money.
I find myself doing similar stuff. I have a cheque to bank, but have held off as I will have another cheque on Friday and I will bank both together to save on fuel:).

Have a great day xx

petrol is so expensive. i wish i could get the bus to work or magically walk! but its 12 miles and would be 2 busses which would work out the same in buss fare but take twice as long.

nother little e*bay bargain for twinklet. a Mamas & Papas vibrating bouncer for £5.51. as i'm not going out this weekend (only for a coffee with mum) its coming out of my lunch fund that i had put aside for meeting friends down south so not breaking a budget.

worked out, with everything we've bought for twinklet, if we'd paid full price or bought brand new we'd of spent about £500. so far we have spent £177. this is pleasing

transferred my wages back into my account. and reduced my overdraft yb £50 again so its now £200 rather than £300 when i started my diary and i havent been into it once since

i have booked a skip for a couple of weeks time. i need to clear the attic, the coal bunker, the shed & behind the shed. theres 3 doors that i need to get rid of and its driving me insane. hubs says he's happy to pay for it (as he isnt yet contributing to the house much) and will be a nice fresh start to spring. i would say i'd take it all to the tip but in all honesty i know tha i wouldn't coz i'm lazy. haha

Oooh i love a skip :rotfl:.

It so much fun ditching all the junk and making the place look lovely and clear :T.

Great that hubby can pay for it and like you said, it will be a great start. Don't suppose those doors are good enough to sell?. Make sure you don't dump anything with the slightest value, you know what carp some #bayers will buy.

Great :money: for Twinklet :j

everything possible to be sold in my house has been. the doors are really old egg box type doors. one has a hole in so not much use to anyone. alot of it is old carpet & rubbish from re-do in the house up. theres all the bathroom tiles that were ripped off & the kitchen tiles. hubs has a habit of just dumping it in the garden..... in the hope fairies will take it away i'm sure.

well bacon cob friday is definitely a thing of the past. i woke up this morning dieing for a tin of peaches so went to the shop on my way to work for peaches, fruit juice & grapes. at least its all healthy. not very MSE but i NEEDED them! it wasnt a want i was most definately a need.

paid a couple of extra payments yesterday onto my credit cards. think im going to make a couple of pound more tomorrow

im so looking forward to a weekend with my mum. 1) it'll only be cost of petrol and maybe a coffee when we are out. 2) i havent seen her properly since told her about twinklet so will be nice to have some time together (even though i speak to her every day)

hope you are all ok. i've woken up in a great mood. Think we're having domin0s tonight with the cashback & 50% off
