    Hello all,

    Good news from me today. I got a call FINALLY from a senior member of our local police. It looks like the guy with my purse will be charged after all, not for the initial burglary, but for handling stolen property. I could get some compensation, 6-8 months down the line! The policeman's coming over to give me my purse back tomorrow <3

    Today I have:
    * Made a mushroom & green bean casserole. I'm still enamoured with my slow cooker!
    * Put away two portions of yesterday's creation in the freezer. It's so economical. 1 tin tomatoes, 1 stock cube + WATER = 8 portions.
    * Did some dishes. Not enough though!
    * Made a summer project list for OH & me including making a birdie table!
    * Checked OH's bank account with him, saw a cashback offer that means we'll be getting £11 off a £60 shop. We still have plenty of food left from last week though!
    * Put laundry away, tidied our room, filed some papers
    * Filled out pension transfer form
    * Made a doctor's appointment for pre-baby!!
    * Made a nurse's appointment
    * Transferred some music & sermons mp3s to my phone, at long last

    Left to do -
    * Check last couple of mobile phone bills, phone up and get wrong internet charges refunded
    * Lower price of laptop on Gumtree, it's not selling :(
    * Ring my mum and see if she did WTC form; let her know the deadline's been extended
    * Clean bottom half of the piggie cage
    * Start court proceedings against old landlord
    * Get Vinted refunds
    * Check last couple of mobile phone bills, phone up and get wrong internet charges refunded
    * Remainder of the dishes
    * Walk to prayer group

    Off I go now, good night all!

    Good evening!

    Another NSD for me! Woohoo! My new book 'the self sufficiency manual' has arrived in preperation for moving house in a month or so to a place with just under an acre...so darn excited!

    Skimmed the bank last night and as I missed last weeks skimmed £9.89, all helps!

    All tired out so suspect I will have an early night!

    Happy Thursday!
