HI PWD, thanks for your kind post, the tenants have settled in and I hope will stay a while.

Bella- thankyou for your post.0 -
So as it's last day of the school hols for us I have spent the morning making sure uniforms/pe kits are all ready.
Had a quick lunch, just soup and a sandwich and then darted into Town to pay in a Cheque for OH, nipped into B&M spent £3.80 on coffee and washing up liq.
Also went into a goldsmiths in town, I have a pair of gold earrings that I received for my 21st, I have never worn them as I always disliked them but kept hold of them because of who they were from and the fact they were a present, I found them the other day and decided it was stupid to have something of small value never worn just sat in a box in a drawer, so I tok them into the goldsmiths and sold them for £46 and the sky hasn't fallen down and I don't feel bad about it, in fact I've felt worse when I've sold items on ebay and they have sold for stupidly low amounts. So I need to add that to the challenge amount.
Tea tonight is a frugal one scrambled eggs on toast.
Off to finish washing up from lunch and do the ironing.0 -

Thankyou Bella.
Kids have been fed, going to go and send them for showers, sort out bags into car and put out uniform.
Told them tonight its bed at 7 and lights out at 7.30 need to get back into the school routine.0 -
Back to school and work today
, I have really enjoyed the last 2 weeks off just pottering around the house and spending time with the kids.
Today will be a spend day, I need petrol and school dinners need paying for.
Packed lunches for today are made and I have everything I need in for tea tonight (cheesy potato bake), most do some baking when I get back from work.
Better go and get showered and wake the kids up.0 -
Morning pwps Hope work goes well
On the plus side if you get petrol from one of the supermarkets they've dropped there prices as of today so that should save you a bit of money, not some good for me as I got petrol yesterday oh well maybe prices will stay lower for a while.
Your cheesy potato bake sounds yummy.
Take care have a good day x***** on the road to debt freedom *****
