Back from shopping and I spent £88.34 this included £20 for nappies.
The fridge and food cupboard is fully stocked up now. Hoping this rain stops before I have to pick the boys up from school as I don't fancy getting wet again! It's swimming lessons for ds1 tonight and ds2 is moving up to cubs which is also on a Monday night. I should make it in time to drop ds2 off to cubs on the way back from swimming but it will be a rush. Never mind.
I have a chilli in the slow cooker at the moment so the boys will be having an early dinner before clubs tonight then they can have fruit later if they are hungry.
Hoping for a couple of NSD's this week.

NSD today :T
Decided to wash all the bedding today so spent the morning washing and trying to get everything dry before the rain came. Hubby is working late tonight so I'm going to wash up from dinner then try and grab a shower. I'm looking forward to a bit of peace tonight without rubbish man tv!!
I need to go into town tomorrow and by some stationary bits and also put in a repeat prescription for ds1's meds.0 -
Yesterday was another NSD, a friend cane round for the day which stopped me going out and spending!!
I have bought something off a friend today but I'm not sure what she wants for it yet, it's under £20 and that's all I will be spending today.
We are having a chilli for dinner tonight with rice and garlic bread then the boys have beavers and scouts. Quite fancy sitting down and watching the last few episodes of breaking bad tonight so hoping the kids are good and go to bed on time! I don't mind them reading or watching a dvd in our room but I don't want them up and down like last night!

Spent £15 yesterday as I bought something off a friend.
We have had a washing machine man out today as our machine has been playing up, that's another £75 gone from our account.
the problem is fixed now though so I now have about 4 loads of washing to get through!
Sweet and sour chicken for dinner tonight, making a meal plan and sticking to it is really working for me. I am noticing how much money we are saving by not eating convenience food because I haven't prepared anything for dinner, also not throwing away out if date good that has gone to waste.
Loving the weather today so I have opened every window in the house to let some fresh air in.

Spent another £8.50 yesterday as I took ds3 to a special needs play group at the local leisure centre then stopped for a coffee afterwards.
My weight seems to be staying the same at the momentso need to sit down and think of a new plan for losing weight.
This morning has been spent washing 3 loads of clothes, my washing basket now only contains 1 jumper and a pair of socks which I found in the boys bedroom after I put the last load on!!
I've also cleaned the bathroom and kitchen so just need to Hoover upstairs and downstairs and I'm all up together
Thinking of taking the kids to the local soft play centre this afternoon, we usually take them around 4ish as it's really quiet at that time on a sunday.0 -
Well ds3 decided to sleep all afternoon so we never made it to soft play! As we didn't go out we have managed another NSD :j
Kids are just eating dinner then they have a bit of homework to finish off whilst I bath the little one.
Tomorrow I'm hoping to get to cost co and do some grocery shopping.0 -
Another £50 off the debt today.
I need to get a birthday present for a friend today do should spend £15 (if they have what I want to get her in stock!)
I also need to pop to the local garden centre and buy a pot for ds2's sunflower he planted at cubs which is now getting to big for the little pot it's in.
Mexican burgers and salad for dinner tonight.0 -
Planted ds2's sunflower yesterday.
hopefully it will continue to grow.
Had my hair cut today which was £23, I'm going to have highlights next week but it's my birthday so it will be a present from hubby.
I need to check my bank in a bit but I don't think it's going to be looking very good
it's been a bit if an expensive month and I'm still waiting for the £75 to come out of my account for the washing machine repairs. 0 -
