  • lol too true. Hugs, cups of tea and general blethering. My son is off just now allegedly studying for his Higher prelims and every night I come in and the dishwasher is full and kitchen is a riot. Every night I roar that he should have at least cleaned up the kitchen and every bloody night he answers 'you never told me to' :mad::mad::mad: it drives DD and I up the wall but is also funny and that's why he gets away with it.

  • oh PLMBL it won't be too long until it's your own boys. My ds came downstairs one night with a blob of gloop on his head. I asked him what it was and he grunted 'I dunno'. I tentatively smelt it (picture the scene and facial expression) and discovered it was shampoo :eek: the lazy git hadn't even rubbed it in :rotfl: straight back in shower he went with the threat that if he didn't start being more careful when he washed then I would be washing him again and tbh these days he showers pretty frequently.

    My niece will be fine PLMBL. She's a bit achy now but heading for a bath and will take some painkillers and get to bed.

    I just did an online shop. I used mysupermarket.co.uk and got a £15 off voucher for sainsburys. I also got 137 nectar points and I am getting it delivered tomorrow night between 9-10 for only £2.99. I have bought tonnes of food for the freezer and with all the discounts I was only £66. I also get £1.99 cashback paid into my paypal account. I am very pleased with that. Next delivery will be in DD's name to get the £15 again :rotfl:. Smashing :D

  • Pay away day here :eek:

    Spent £9.30 on a chinese for DD and I. It was lush and worth every penny. Got my Sainsburys delivery as well and I am well impressed with the things I got. Lots of meals and snacks and as I said only £66. Am very happy with it. Saved a few pounds by not buying fizzy juice as I am still not drinking it and feel good for it. I bought decaff earl grey as I love that so it was my wee treat to me.

    Getting hair cut tomorrow :D and then have a charity night tomorrow night in memory of my big mate who collapsed and died last year doing a charity walk. It will be really sad but we want to raise cash for British heart foundation and the mountain rescue team who helped him off of the mountain. His 2 young kids will be there which will be hard to swallow but it should be a good night anyway with good company.oh and it'll be cheap as well as just a wee bar in a church hall.

    Not much more to tell today. Payday but I am just going to lift what I am allowed for the month tomorrow and let things shuffle along and do my best to stick to the budget. A new month and a new attitude xx

  • Afternoon folks. Am here and trying very very hard to be positive but I have a not so mild feeling of panic washing over me. DS and I got haircuts today so that was £40. I got buttons and a new baby aran pattern as I have an order for an aran cardigan and a bobble hat. These are for my Aunt to use as a christening gift so I will not take money from her so that was £4. I put my boots into cobblers to get buttons fixed which will be £2. I came home and put all the money for month into my envelopes and I am left with £45 for the month :eek: I mean seriously. How do folks do this frugal challenge. I'm effed :rotfl:again.

    I have an envelope with £100 in for petrol, £112.50 for DS for school and £50 for gifts. I move £50 to another account towards Christmas and that leaves me £112.50 for everything else. I have already spent money on shopping and hair cuts and I have a night out tonight :rotfl: am feeling slightly hysterical and am actually sitting laughing. I will probs spend about £25 tonight ( and I'm going , this is not negotiable as is in memory of a very special man) so I am left with £20 for 4 weeks wahahahaha !!!!!!!!!

    I don't even have a plan lol

    Never mind. My hair is lovely..............always a positive folks..........always a positive xx
