  • Morning, not much happening in the PWPS household, DS has football and rugby matches this weekend and DD is working. DH is off work this weekend but will be the taxi toing and froing for the above.

    Spent yesterday baking, also made soup and making a lovely cheese and onion pie, was tired by the end of it but felt good to be in the kitchen cooking.

    Banking has been checked this morning and I have had a payment of £15 into paypa1 from GTM, so that has gone straight off debt and also redeemed a £5 pre paid mast£rcard from is@y, which I have also paid straight off N£XT. so some nice payments made this morning.

    Still need to do meal plan and a food order, must do that today, also a Christmas list.

    Small spend yesterday on some milk, will need to go and do a small shop tomorrow as DS has told me he is cooking at school on Tuesday.

    Hope everyone is ok x

    Sounds like you're doing well with the pottering. Makes you wonder when you have time to go to work on days like these :)
    I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)
  • Pottering sounds good Pennywise! xx

  • I am enjoying pottering around at home, especially when ts cold and wet outside.

    Another day of pottering around the house, did some tidying up, redeemed £6.50 from surveys and have 1 item ending on £bay item which should make about £5.
    Received £5 m@stercard from sw@gbucks which I have paid straight off n£xt.
    Quite a few surveys done today and i'm trying to do as many as possible as it all helps to pay debt and vouchers are great for Christmas, also 200 points short on max1miles for redeeming a Christmas present for Grandma, hope I manage it in the next couple of weeks.

    Made cookies, sausage rolls and meatballs, meatballs are for tea with spaghetti.

    House is quiet at the moment DS is at sports club and DD has gone shopping with her friends, i'm sure it will be mayhem in an hour though.

    Not much else going on really we just seem to be ticking along.
  • Morning.

    I'm very excited DH is taking me out for lunch, can you tell cabin fever has set in a bit, it's strange not being able to jump in my car and go off and do all the normal things I would do.

    Few jobs to do at home today, including more baking, all the biccies have gone that I baked and the ones DS baked yesterday at school:eek:, I tried on some work trousers the other day as I thought I was putting on weight and they were tight, what are they going to be like after Christmas :eek::mad:. I shouldn't worry about it really and just concentrate on getting better I know the weight will drop back off once I'm back to work/running round after everyone.

    Finances are ticking along and I've starting thinking about goals for the new year, as having a goal to focus on always works better for me.
    £12 paid off debt today and I have a few surveys to do already so hope fully I can make a few more pennies, also a couple of bits ending on £bay.
    Mr M order coming this evening, based on a 10 day meal plan I've spent £90 but know I will need to get more milk/fruit/bread later on in the week. If I can keep this months grocery budget under £300 I will be a happy bunny.

    To do list -
    Wrap post £bay parcels.
    Bake.
    Washing x2 loads.
    tidy bathroom.
    sort out sock pile.
    surveys.

    Must go and get sausages out of freezer for tea tonight and then get showered and dressed.

    Have a great day x
  • Hope lunch out was nice Pennywise xx
