    Back from swimming, ds sis much better today, his teacher was really pleased with him :j :j I did bribe him to be good and then he could have ago on one of those kiddie rides that cost 50p outside the swimming pool :rolleyes: :o then again, at least it worked ;):D

    I have had my other water bill today, which means the total water bill for the last 6 months is £100, I have been putting money away each month and have £115 in the water savings pot :D so the extra £15 from there may go towards helping my main account which has taken a hammering recently :o

    The rest of today is going to be spent blitzing my flat, deep-cleaning everything in sight, sorting out paperwork and finances and generally getting everything sorted again :D Just off to get ds lunch first, then I'll get cracking and will report back later on my progress :D

    Right, have done 4 loads of washing now and can't put the last lot on as I've got nowhere left to dry it and I'm not gonna use the tumble dryer so it will have to wait now until tomorrow ;):D

    I have also cleaned the bathroom, tidied the lounge, hoovered all rooms, done dinner and emptied the hoover :beer:

    I still need to: take the rubbish out, clean the kitchen floor and bathroom floor, empty the dishwasher, remake ds bed (done mine), clean the bottom of the oven as I spilt the quiche on it when I made it a couple of weeks ago :o:o:o

    I have also done an Itsyourview survey for £3 and some onepoll surveys for 65p thi afternoon. Yeovilmac, pm me your email address then I can refer you for some of them, I will check the others in a minute, I may need to pm you my username, not sure :D

    :mad: :mad: :mad: I've just broken a tooth :mad: :mad: I'm really annoyed as I havent yet registered with a dentist down here ... I've had a look online and there are some down here that say they're taking nhs patients, but whether their websites are up to date is another matter :rolleyes: Luckily I qualify for free nhs dental treatment but I have a complete phobia about it all too. Plus I'm back at school on monday so will probably mean having to take dome time off for it :mad:

    Well I've managed to find an nhs dentist and have got me and ds registered. I have an appointment for both of us next friday afternoon, luckily they are open until 8pm every night so I shouldn't need to take time off work to go :rolleyes: I am dreading it already but I know I need to go :o:o

    Back to today ... I have got 5 piggypoints so far, need to catch up on the £10 a day challenge ... I'm going to get the car cleaned today, was going to go to the car wash but have arranged to go to my sisters and use her hosepipe instead ;) Not much else planned, will see how it goes ...
