    Today I need to...

    -Go to library
    -Have dinner at a friend's
    -Extra work today
    -Clean/ironing blah blah!

    Love this!

    Hello all,

    Between today and yesterday I have:

    * Did a full day at CAB. Did my first telephone interviews :eek:
    * Cooked (a cheap, veggie) dinner at home despite OH & I both being out all day. Conquering the takeaway temptation one meal at a time ;)
    * Checked with noddle - OH's CR won't be being ammended (yet ;) )
    * Phoned landlord. They say there's a cheque for £392 (but we paid a £35 court fee already, and could be entitled to £38 interest...)
    * Checked the replies to my woes posted on a landlord forum. Wrote a reply. Getting closer to getting this resolved (and hopefully be £465 up!)
    * Had a wee catch up with an old friend over the phone :) Cheaper than drinks out etc.
    * Put laundry in this morning before leaving the house. And hung some more laundry out. And folded some more laundry when I came home. Fun!
    * Cancelled OH's dr appt for tomorrow
    * Went to doctor's. Got an ECG and blood test booked for Monday! I am terrified of needles but going to try and overcome this now
    * Our washing machine was on the blink yesterday but my OH fixed it :)
    * Big hoover/clean of upstairs
    * Leftovers for lunch & dinner yesterday. Not thrown any food away this week
    * De-flea'd the house and cats !!
    * Re-organised OH's wardrobe, looks LOVELY now

    Still left to do for today/tomorrow -
    * Change first direct standing order to savings account to the minimum £25 for this month
    * Phone Orange and get wrong internet charges refunded
    * Ring Student Loans Company and extend only paying off £10/month for another 6 months
    * Contact my new employer again asking where on earth is my contract?
    * Organise photos on computer
    * Contact old employer myself to request P45.
    * Sew my dress up!
    * Get Vinted refunds
