We've had a great day, I did the mystery shop and then we went to pick up ds and stopped off in the forest on the way home. We went for a paddle in the stream and then when we got home another parcel arrived for ds and it was a metal detector, so I a hoping toget rich from discovering hidden treasure :rotfl:

Tonight we're off down the beach to watch the fireworks and then I need to start getting on with some money-making

Todays spends = 14.99 on computer ink (I will get 5.00 of it back from ms though), 3.40 on pie and chips for tea, 27.00 on petrol :eek:

we're always finding roman artefacts - every piece of broken crockery found has a loooong story behind it which either goes back to romans or pirates!:D

Morning Today needs to be a list day ...

• post ebay parcel
• collect game ordered from Woolies
• buy niece birthday present
• buy new baby present for another niece

Can't think of much else yet but no doubt I'll add to the list during the day

How were the fireworks? Think it needs to be a list day for me too, these long holidays are lovely but I have such BIG plans for them as they are apporaching then when htye get here I say to myself 'oh I can do that tomorrow'.
I don't want to go back to work in September feeling I didn't use my time productively.

So.... off I go to make a list

Morning!
Oh you are so organised with your list already! I feel like I'm slipping a bit at the moment and losing some of the inspiration I had a few weeks ago. I want to make money these hols and to save money on my grocery bill, but I'm not good at writing it down so I don't have any figures to show for it! I tried to make a spreadsheet last night but got in a pickle so gave up! I have a few notebooks I've bought but I get in a muddle over what to write in them aarrghhhhh indecisive me?!

So any tips gratefully received! I'm off to a posh hotel today for a spa day out with the Key Stage 1 staff at school, lovely. then lunch at a teachers house. So a rest for me. Then my girlies home tonight, I'm missed them! Don't like them away for more than one night!!

Bye for now,
K:p

KM ... the fireworks were great, and even better that its free I'm the same about getting stuff done in the holidays, I've got loads to catch up on today but the weather is supposedto change tomorrow so I think I'll try and get it all done by midafternoon and then head down the beach for a bit

Milly ... your day sounds lovely I know what you mean about wanting the girls back, I never relax properly when ds is away,partly cos I don't trust ex to look after him properly :mad: I need to sort my banking stuff out too as its got a bit out of control since we broke up for the holidays All the extra money I'm making will probably end up going on balancing my account :rolleyes:
