Being optimistic and hoping for a nsd..... I know that tomorrow wont be because its shopping day,and i promised dd we'd go to a craft shop and buy a couple of bits. Shes been asking for weeks, and I've been looking up on some gift/cards ideas we could make together and potentially save some money. I have a little list of things id like try to make, but want them to be cheaper than buying new otherwise i'm not bothering!
Also want to make a curtain for a wooden stand ive got to hide blankets and towels underneath, I havent really got suitable material here, but know I'll get what I need for less than £5 in Dune1m, and should look lovely once done. hoping it'll work...
First day of maternity leave and I'm considering a nap, just because I can, only problem is I've put gammon in the cooker and will need to get up in 1/2 hour to put the glaze on, and then again in 45 mins to switch it offIts one of those £3.50 ones from 1c3land that you bung in the oven, and tastes lovely. Hopefully we'll have some left over for dh's sarnies tomorrow.
Well that enough for now, I shall update later. xStill here..... but working on that!0 -

Just made a small payment of £2 to my credit card, and updated my signature. Only been making tiny paymets and i've paid off over 10% already
really adding up, and i wouldnt notice the change at all!
Today wont b a sfd, need food shopping and school shoes for dd, and lots of other bits for my hospital bag. Also wan to buy a pack of nappies in botts so that we get te free changing bag, for dh to use.
Tempted to change £10 tesco vouchers into baby vouchers and stock up on nappies and wipes, would keep me going for a while with the ones ive already got.Still here..... but working on that!0 -

If u do it online u need to change the vouchers into online double up vouchers, and then use them to buy baby items for delivery. If u go instore u can double them up for baby vouchers.
I did think about delivery but need food and have loads of 50/60p off vouchers so i thought id use those while im there.Still here..... but working on that!0 -
