Hope is not an Effective Financial Strategy

Thanks for popping in. I'll take it as a compliment that you popped back unless you're a gluten for punishment!! Get MB going now the football season has started i've just made a quick £20 on tonights football and if Liverpool go on to win then a further £11.25!

Made up i'm beating you on the MFi3... i'm going into overdrive now so all you'll see is my dust...!

Epic failure! Cam home from work with a blinding head ache, so had a snooze rather than run or ebay list! Am now watching Liverpool before heading for an early night.

Not too much of a failure for the day. I did get to post office and i did get 70% (possibly more) of my big project done, so will polish it off tomorrow and then Friday for the fiddly bits.

I ironed for 2 hours instead of ebaying

Ironing - i feel your pain! Thankfully i cant be trusted with an iron!

£1 TT this morning which always gives me a little smile. It also indicates no bank activity, which as we all know means no spending! 8 days to payday and paying out day! We're heading to the caravan for a week next Thursday and hoping for better weather than we had at the start of the school holidays! Just 1 day without rain would beat it to be honest.

A few jobs to sort in next few days/weeks, some fiddly, some easy, some dirty, some that i just put off:

• Paint front door - plan is Thursday & Friday
• Sort pet insurance
• Pooch for his annual booster
• ebay - but thats always on the list
• Jumpers for school (everything else sorted) - Mrs SJ job
• Pooch hair cut
• Paint garden fence before winter
• Wash down all guttering and fascias (also empty gutters)
• Conservatory needs a deep clean

What kind of pooch is getting a haircut?

shangaijimmy

Why all the dentist fuss? I'm looking forward to getting a sticker...

Mini schnauzer in SJ towers, so big beard, big eyebrows and fluffy paws!

Long day in work and home to Mrs SJ stating that internet is off, as if it was my fault and i could have fixed it! Internet still out, so currently using chromebook tethered to my phone. Typically its thrown it down this evening and the forecast doesn't look great overnight, or Friday, so yet another front door painting opportunity lost!

Plan for day off tomorrow now consists of dog walk, great grandma visit, followed by play centre for DD. NSD today but wont manage it tomorrow, will spend about £5 on entry and a brew. I only did a small run today so will definitely sneak another one in tomorrow. I've also managed to make about £25 on MB tonight, but did make a small error which knocked £16 off my profit, grrr!

Well off to bed, to catch up with a few diaries. Hoping DD manages to sleep through again, as it was a lovely surprise waking up at 7.15 this morning an her still being sound asleep!!

Dog sounds cute. My 5.30 getter upper is off gallivanting with his grandparents for a fortnight.

Mwahahaha!
