Hey all, just declared my total on the last thread.. it took me a while to count it!! I didn't want to smash my pot of dreams money pot so had to sit and empty all the contents with tweezers!.. TWEEZERS!.. oh my.. my arms kill! haha anyways I had joined the group late and so it was about 3 months savings rather than the whole year.. but now I can't wait to see how much I pot for the year
and I can use the same pot! :P
*Edit* also the money is going to be used to treat myself in the sales.. so it will come in handy!0 -

Sent DH Asxx While I changed beds and had a shower Told him I was having shower first so get in shower mobile rings I guessed it was him so thought I won't bother to answer as it won't be important it then rings twice more so get out of shower to answer:
Me "Whats wrong"
DH " Asxx doesn't open till 10 but you can go in but its only 9.30"
Me "So"
DH " Well I don't know if it's worth waiting"
Me " So What exactly do you want me to about it"
DH " Well what should I do?"
Me " Well I'm dripping wet but if you want me to run over there and demand they serve you right I'm on my way"
DH " there is no need to be funny I think I will go to the newsagents then come home"
Me " Just do what you want"
So he arrives back with no shopping then asks me what are we going to do about the shopping, when I said in my sweetest voice don't you worry you watch the re-run of the football I will go he waited till I went upstairs and called out I'm just off to Asxx!!!
I wouldn't mind but we only needed a loaf he could have got that at the newsagents :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
BTW 30 mins later he still hasn't come home!!!
probably snuck off to the bookies :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
Why is he such hard work?

I have one just like yours, he cant seem to think for himself and needs me to tell him what to do.
I swear it is like having an extra kid :rotfl:

Thank you for the welcome, I.m going to count what I have before I seal the pot up.
I have done a similar thing in the past for Xmas's (but bank around every £40 or £50), but well in front now with savings there, so not for Xmas pressies ................................ butthemstarrynights wrote: »*Edit* also the money is going to be used to treat myself in the sales.. so it will come in handy!

Hello Potters
...
Hello everyone 41p in the pots today :j....The dog's on the naughty list now :eek:. I think he's having some sort of mid life crisis _pale_. He decided for some reason this morning it would be okay to revert back to being a puppy . His idea was to tear the ear of the DD's teddy bear, and gently pluck out the stuffing with his teeth. He's on a strict diet of non cuddling by the DD now :rotfl:. DW is going to try a Frankenstein like repair, on the bear.
Happy Potting everyone :j.😇 Sealed Pot Challenge: Member No: 20: 2012 = £92.14; 2013 = £45.27; 2014 = £54.70; 2015 = ; 2016 = £70.38 2022 = £10.58 2023 = ???? 🍀 2023 DECLUTTERING CAMPAIGN Mrs SD 65/365 so far. 👾 The Other Way, or the MSE Way: My Personal Challenge 🍀 The Other Way, or the MSE Way: My Personal Challenge 20120 -
