    Then had to go out to the shops again as DD has terrible toothache and we had run out of calpol. Feeling like such a terrible mum. :cry: Booked a dentist appointment yesterday, but couldn't get one until Monday. Poor little mite.... :(


    Gosh what a long wait. Poor LO - toothache is the pits


    Well I felt guilty today about deserting DH whilst doing my course and thoroughly cleaned the bathroom and kitchen and gave him one of his favourite dinners - Bless


    Potted £1 today. Thought I'd found some roadkill but it was a piece of broken handbag clasp caught in the drain-strips :mad:

    Managed to pot 30p, which DH had left lying around the house. :D No more potting until after the weekend as I've got a couple more presents to buy.

    I am doing trampolining training today so who knows what coins will fall out! :rotfl:

  • Well at least I remembered my wallet yesterday!

    £1.54 potted

    Decided last night that I will also join the £1 a day challenge for 2014 & also thinking of setting up a pot for any spare housekeeping monies as we are planning a trip to Miami next year - so this would really help to boost spends! - not gonna tell hubby tho - then hopefully it will be a pleasant surprise:beer:

    My god you are all so right this is really addictive!!:T

    Happy weekend everyone - keep well and safe

    busy one for me work Xmas dinner and a wedding:)

    Morning all.Potted £2. Just about to get Christmas tree and baubles out.Youngest granddaughter comes every Friday, after school,and stays for the weekend.She wants to decorate the tree today.
  • I would have been able to pot £3 but my boyfriend spent it on sweets so he still owes me £3 as I paid for his dinner yesterday.

    This weeks been awful. My parents made me choose between my family or him. I chose no one and my mum decided that I chose him so they hate me. :(
