  • MOrning all.

    Just a quick update as I need to have a clean around as we have some more rellies visiting today that couldn't make it on Sunday to see DD.

    Have just done banking and can't believe I forgot about a bill:mad:, I thought I seemed to have extra money, anyway I have enough pennies but it will be squeaky tight for the month (now't new there).

    Just paid £125 off Mr Barc CC, not paid anything off Mr T CC yet as I'm going to wait to see if I have any 3bay sales today, If not it will be the minimum £1 payment for the day.

    Jobs to do this morning -

    Sort animals.
    make bread.
    Ironing (didn't do it yesterday).
    washing and hang out as it's nice weather.
    sweep mop through downstairs.
    clean bathroom.
    Hoover stairs and landing.
    Fill log baskets.
    Afternoon jobs (after family gone).

    Take DD riding.
    make lasagne.
    Start cleaning out hall cupboard.

    Hope everyone is ok.x.

    I have just read your amazing cluttering. I started serious deleting last week. It is a great feeling to rid one's house of unused items. I succeeded in filling a box yesterday including a box full of broken stuff someone have Mr P just before Christmas!

    I saw during has sprung there too. :D Our snow had almost gone which makes it feel spring like and time to clean.

    Rubbish about the forgotten bill. And another tight month. I hope it isn't too difficult.

    Hi Pooh, thanks for popping by and I hope you and your family are well.

    Decluttering has come to a stand still today.

    1 piece left and I've thrown it your way.

    How's the decluttering going?
  • Not a very productive afternoon, we went and did the pony and DD had a good ride out, the weather is beautiful today.

    Came home and watched Saving Mr Banks, which I really enjoyed and connected to.

    Very poor regarding decluttering -

    Item 25 - 2 old diaries - burnt on woodburner.
  • I've done nothing today but go out for a mooch in a local cathedral town so you are beating me!! Was a glorious day!

    2 diaries is surely 2 items ;) x

  • Hi Guys.

    Sorry I hvn't been posting had a couple of days feeling down and fed up, Had a text message from a friend basically having a go a me for not being in touch and that she has needed a shoulder and I've not been there for her, ok I havn't spoken to her for a couple of weeks basicaaly because I've been so busy and tired at the end of the day but she hasn't contacted me either so I just assumed she was as busy as me and we would catch up at half term. I sent her a message back and told her this but I havn't heard anything from her so I think she must be sulking with me.
    I'm really annoyed and upset though as all she ever wants to do is moan at me about how bad life is as though I have no problems and live a wonderful life, she complains about having no money, she has cut her work hours back putting more pressure on her OH, she doesn't like where she lives but won't do anything about it, everything is a drama and I know that she will be pulling me to pieces behind my back because apparently I don't have the problems she has (yeah right).


    Anyway onto brighter things..................sort of. I have been naughty and booked a hair appointment for tomorrow and I'm going to use the y0ug0v money to pay for it, in know it should go off the debt but I feel like I need a treat, so sorry guys.

    Still decluttering a little bit,
    26,27,28,29,30 31 all books gone to charity shop,
    32 a broken bt vision box- bin.
    33,34 empty shoe boxes - recycling.
    35 Christmas magazine - recycling.
    36 cracked jug -binned.
    37 christmas hat - charity shop.
    38 pile papers - recycling box.
    39 broken file - binned.


    I have redeemed 1000 points from e reward$ and they have hit my nectar accou£5 of free shopping from sainsbugs, also redeemed £3 from mysurv3y. I have sent an old phone to env1r0ph0ne sill only get me £9 but better than nowt.

    Items finishing this weekend on £bay, will hopefully make around £25 but will need this for food shopping, I will receive child ben on Tuesday and I get paid on Friday so just one more week to go and then a new month.

    Hope everyone is ok, take care.x.
  • I'm sure you're a lovely friend.. :-)

    Enjoy the hair appointment! x
