Well my washing in on - looks a scorcher down here today and I'm not missing out on that washing opportunity!
Bank account checked, withdrew £10 from ppal from fleabay sales. CC checked, least said about that the better. Last weekend of possible spending is ahead and then the belt is tightened again.
Morning at home tiding and doing stuff, might get some carrot muffins baked and then friends round later.
Work tomorrow for the whole day. Can't believe I'm back properly next week. Although I'm probably ready for the routine and the littlies are asking when they go back, so think they are keen now as well.
24 items on fleabay, 4 will sell, 2 more with watchers that I expect to sell.
Thank goodness DH's pay comes in tomorrow - our bank account is at a woeful £87!!
happy Tuesday all.DFW (08/08) £64,346.53 Gone (02/19)

Another vote for H&M here - I like their slim fit jeans on my smaller two and their joggers are always (so it seems) on 3 for 2
DD (18) also likes their stuff (adult, now, obv!) - but it's cheap, reasonably long lasting (as opposed to Primork stuff) and on trend enough for a picky teen. They also do great little party dresses - a couple of years ago I bought DD a little plum coloured dress for her school Xmas 'ball/ party' (held in a club) - cost £7.99 - and that wasn't even in the sale! :money::T SHe's added a few more to her collection since (and am sure they'll get wear when she's at uni ) - and the most expensive (full priced) was less than £20.

I know MTG!!!! Littlies aren't back till the 7th!
Paddling pool is out and I need to go get blowing.
Just snaffled the littlies birthday presents from Am@zon, wasn't planning to get them for a while as wanted to use vouchers, but they (tablets) went on flash sale and thanks to camelcamelcamel (blinking love that site) - I was here to grab them at £39.99 each! Had to go on the CC, but a bargain is a bargain.
Right off to blow up the pool!DFW (08/08) £64,346.53 Gone (02/19)

Morning all, Weather is looking dry, but not especially sunny today.
Plan to go to a local AONB and walk the pup and kids.. hopefully that will tire pup out for the afternoon and we can craft and do some painting. Need to go to Mr T to get an order with last bits of uniform.
DH's pay in and I've divvied it all up.. determined not to increase the amounts of the CC this month and (again) get a final debt figure that we can work on clearing!
50p spent last night as the tooth fairy made her first visit to our house.
50p on a YG survey this morning.
that's all folks, happy Thursday.DFW (08/08) £64,346.53 Gone (02/19)

First load of washing on, weather is looking great, so another load going straight on afterwards!
£1 survey done on pr0folic and up to £4.92.
Pottering about the house this morning and then off to @sda - am in need of a new bra after the old one literally started creaking with every movement and then the wire snapped in two bits!!
Off to littlies club after that and then we think we are going to sneak to the beach to watch the sunset, but not telling them as they love doing this.
Got a busy weekend coming in.. also may be my birthday at some point, so planning to squeeze as much as we can out of this weekend.
Happy Friday all!DFW (08/08) £64,346.53 Gone (02/19)
