Morning

Tootoo- thanks it was fine just the usual first day back meetings and admin, today will be the same.

I have collected 60 adpoints and got screened out of 4 VO surveys. On a brighter note had a NSD yesterday.

I tried my hand at making focaccia yesterday and it was quite good, used rosemary from the garden for it. I thought I would give it a go instead of running to the shops for garlic bread and whatever else would fall into my basket!!

Cut the grass last night as I think it's to rain this afternoon and then went to visit my MIL.

I will hang a washing out this morning and leave DD2 instructions to bring it in before the rain starts.

Dinner will be from stores and I will try to avoid spending again today. Lunches made for work.

No petrol today, car share to work and I drove yesterday so my friends turn today.

Will update grocery spends and anything else later.

Have a good day all

Morning all

Miserable here today, don't thin there will be any chance of line drying.

have made lunches for work and dinner will be from whats in. I will need to get milk, think I'd be better buying a cow the amount of milk we go through!!!

Payday today :T so will have to sort out a budget when I get home from work.

21 adpoints this morning and a few surveys in my inbox but I won't have time to do them before I go to work.

I will update later, I can't get onto my online banking page with santander :mad: off to try again and then go to work have a good day.

Morning

Thank goodness it's Friday I am feeling really tired this morning, must be getting back into getting up for work. we have some friends coming round tonight for drinks so it will be good to relax and have a catch up.

Haven't had time to sort out money yet as we watched a movie last night and I didnt get round to sorting out budgets.

Today I have collected 4 adpoints and have made lunches for work. I made bread rolls last night for lunches another first so that saved me going to shops :T

I found 37p yesterday so I have put that in the copper jar.

Car share again so not my petrol today, have a good day all

I'm tired this morning. I had agreat night with friends but I had to call it a day at 4.30am my eyes were rolling in my head and leave them to it. I must be getting old!!! I think OH fell into bed about 6ish. It is really wet here and I really could be doing with going shopping but I will see how I feel later.

Still haven't managed to sort out any budgets but will hopefully get on it today.

Only thing to report mortgage wise so far today is DD cashback from 123 account has been paid in, so £10.80 to OP pot.

Have a great weekend all

I haven't had time to do much, been really busy at work. I will try to sort out budgets when I get home today and update.

I have collected 60 adpoints since yesterday and I have loads of surveys in my inbox just not had the time to do them.

All meals from stores today and washing out to line dry.

Have a good day all!!

It's miserable here today, just getting ready to go to work. I have made lunches and dinner will be from stores. I will need to go to shops today for milk.

DD2's friends birthday so I will need to go and pick up a gift and some cards, no birthday ones left in the card box.

50p from a ugov survey and 16 adpoints today. My £20 Mr S vouchers have arrived from VO I don't think I will use them this week though as I have a MOC for Mr T.

Have a good day!!

Evening all

Paperwork arrived the other day for increasing mortgage dd so OH and I have discussed it and have decided to go for it. This will reduce the term to 8 years :T need to get a stamp and I will post it tomorrow.

50p ugov survey completed and had a NSD today other than DD2s theatre group fee but that is budgeted for. I was going to go for milk however have just decided to make do with the carton I have in and I will get more tomorrow. I get a bit anxious when there isn't another one in the fridge, I'm a weirdo lol.

OH phoned me and said not to cook tonight, he brought us in a chippy nice treat and we ate it out the wrapper so no dishes :j need to go and clean bathroom and do a general tidy.

Masterchef tonight, I made the tomato tart with tapenade John made the other night it was lovely!!! Hoping there will be something to give me inspiration tonight I get fed up trying to find new ideas.
