2018 Benbenandme's Next Battle

benbenandme

So as it's the start of the holidays, and nearly the start of a new month, I thought I'd better write a nice long list of things to do. I'm not going to include the usual housework stuff as that will need to be done regularly over the two weeks anyway. I'm only going to include those one off type things that I've been meaning to get around to for ages

• Compare and fix the electric / gas contract
• Cancel credit card
• Pay for holiday
• Sort garage
• Various trips to the tip
• Sort my drawers / wardrobe
• Sort ds cupboards
• Buy a big plant for the conservatory
• Buy lightbulbs
• Clean conservatory - the bits I can't reach normally
• Help with Mums garden
• Properly clean car inside and out
• Clean garage door
• Clear up the bit by the recycling bins
• Banking
• Work on referrals
• Clear out shoe cupboard
• Ebay
• Shop for lounge curtains
• Research a new fitbit
• Order revision guides for ds
• Delete old unused stuff from laptop
• Declutter email folders
• Clean dyson filters
• Order prints of photos
• Check when sky contract runs out and haggle

I'm sure there will be more bits and pieces added to that as we go along, but it's quite a bit to keep me busy for now

I've been and had the stickers taken off the car today, it looks really dull without them That was a very welcome £150 earned and I would definitely do that again if the opportunity comes up

This afternoon is a sitting on the sofa watching the footie kinda afternoon

Happy Easter :easter_ba :EasterBun :easter:

So it's a new month which means I can move money around from payday A very lazy dy planned today, involving chocolate, a roast dinner and seeing Mum. Off to update the signature

So today has been a nice chilled day; we had bacon sandwiches for lunch, a trip round to Mums, a nice drive in the car, then some footie watching followed by a roast dinner

So today I did have a little bet on the footie, I won £4, all helps It has also been a nsd today, so that has got the month off to a good start :money: Mum gave me £20 for Easter, I will hang on to this for now and treat myself to something nice during the holidays.

Tonight ds and I might watch a film and snuggle on the sofa with a blanket

Hi

I've subscribed to your diary, I hope you don't mind. I just find your focus quite motivating. I've skipped pages cause I was just getting a feel for it but will go back and read them so I can get some ideas.

I think what you achieve is awesome.

Hey Frankie :wave: Welcome aboard

So today is going to be a very wet day, so will be mainly indoors again. Ds is going to work at lunchtime so I will have a few hours of quiet

Yesterday I put a pair of ds trainers on ebay, they were decent ones and he only wore them twice (they didn't feel right) and no longer fit him anyway, so are almost brand new. I already have a few watchers and bids of £6, so hopefully over the week that will rise a bit more. I need to look for any other odds and ends that can go on there, it has made a bit of space in the shoe cupboard too
