Diary of my new life !!!

Hello all ... today we've been over to Moors Valley for a couple of hours this morning with a friend and had a nice walk then nipped into Sainsburys for some bits ... £17 later I left the store with not much stuff at all :rolleyes: I also put £10 petrol in the car. Nothing much else to report today, still no word from the lady about the ebay skirt that hadn't arrived, just off to chec how long she has to register with ebay that it hasn't arrived ... I reckon it may have arrived by now as I think she would have contacted me again by now if it hadn't although I did ask her to let me know either way :rolleyes:

My friend is going home in an hour or so and then I will move my money round for the month.

Forgot to mention, someone bought a buy-it-now ebay item earlier for £4.50 which starts me off for the march challenge :beer:

I've earned £3.00 on AQA tonight, not a huge amount but at least I've started again !! I'm off for an early night now, but I'm taking a big notebook with me and am going to figure out if all my money stuff is on track for the year so far

I also need to make a plan for jobs to be done tomorrow / this week.

Not sure what we're gonna do tomorrow what with it being Mothers Day and everything. I already saw my Mum this week when she came down to stay so it will be just me and ds for the day which I'm looking forward to. I'm not sure whether to take us out for lunch somewhere or whether it would be better to just go to the beach or somewhere. I reckon thats the better choice as we can play together and have fun (and its free ), its just dependant on the weather. If the weathers rbbish we could have fun at home making cakes and stuff I reckon :rolleyes:

Me too.....

How about a wacky warehouse type place then while DS plays you can read a mag and have a coffee so you can chill seen as its mothers day

Just done another £1.50 on aqa I think I will take ds down the beach and maybe have a cooked breakfast down there (seeing as he's too young to make me breakfast in bed ), then have a lazy afternoon and mooch around at home and play with ds

Glad you have made a start on AQA again - there is real potential there to get that mortgage date ever nearer.

benbenandme

Yep you're right Hypno ... I'm finally off to bed now with my notebook and I am going to sort out some figures and hopefully by the time I come back here in the morning I will have set myself a target for AQA for the month G'night all !!!

Morning all, Happy Mothers Day !!!
I had a lovely card from ds and a big box of Thorntons choccies :beer: and also a scarf from school (they all take in £1 and get to choose a gift each) but best of all ... a salt-dough heart he'd made at school that he'd painted red and stuck glitter on and a label on it that he'd typed on the computer at school saying "I'm glad its Mothers Day" I love it !!!

Last night I came up with a list of jobs to be done today / the next few days ... I'll list them here so I can keep checking my progress :rolleyes:

• Ironing
• Tidy the whole flat again!!
• Pay in cheque and pennies
• Post an ebay parcel
• Buy brown paper for ebay parcel
• Label ds summer pe kit ready for school
• Buy a top to wear for night out on friday
• Buy brother-in-laws birthday present
• Find a present for birthday party ds is going to next week from my present cupboard
• Call ds friends mum to confirm he's going to the party
• Pay Next (never got round to it in the end last week )
• Update ds school diary and reading log

Thats all for now but should keep me busy
