Striking while the iron is hot.

House totally finished! Yay. Can enjoy it now after the stress of the last few months.

Gorgeous day again today. Having quite a relaxed day (hopefully). Washing pegged out. Accounts tidied up (they look very unhealthy) need to batten down the hatches now and get things straight.

Meal plan done for the week. Just need Milk so other than that should be a low spend week.

I have had some bits on ebay for ages that I have kept on listing over and over again. They have sold! So they need packaging up and posting out. It's not going to make me rich. But it helps in the de clutter and it's a lovely walk via the woods and park to the Post Office so the children can have a nice walk too.

Have a lovely day.

Just claimed my first TCB pmnt £4.77. Quite pleased with that!

Got loads done today. My head feels a bit more organised. Posted the ebay bits and let the kids run some energy off. Called at Tesc0 for milk and butter. DD (5) said would we not be better of at Ald1! Talk about a mini mse.

Came home and sorted mountains of paperwork out. I was slightly (read very) worried I had lost a £100 M&S voucher. Found it in a pile of papers. Phew! I am going to use it for food this next couple of weeks and the food money will go to the decorator. I know there is probably better ways of using it but this helps things for now.

I have started to read Fortunes diary and am enjoying it. It inspired me to make something lovely for dinner. Got a lovely chicken in the oven and a massive tray of roast veg. Yum smells lovely.

Roast chicken, nom nom

It was lush Lula. I'm trying hard to lose my baby weight (he is 2 thought it was about time:D) So reading Fortunes diary is not good!

We have some debt on ccs after the renovations. Final figure for work ... £6000 :eek: bit more than the £1200 we budgeted so even with the £1000 we were given and £1200 we had saved we came in a wee bit short :rotfl:. Have just applied for the virgin 26 month 0% (with free wine :beer:) and been accepted so this will help.

Hardly spent anything this week. Just found some Lell1 Kelly shoes I bought ages ago for DD which are the right size for school. So no new shoes to buy. :T:T

Weekend starts here for us. Enjoy the bank holiday people.

I never thought I'd get in to exercise at all, but I'm really loving it and it's nice to see the results too...

Enjoy your day people.

Two things... Firstly I have just watered down the milk :money::eek: what is life coming too. :rotfl:

Secondly OH just bought a 3 for 2 offer at Tesc0. He was pleased with himself until I checked the receipt and realised the deal hadn't been applied. :mad: he thought I was a loon firing off an email to Tesc0 but they have just phoned me back (10 min after said email) and are sending me a £5 voucher (offer would have saved me £1.35 :rotfl:).

Every penny counts and all that.
