Morning all :hello: realised last night I was meant to be cooking for 6 tonight, didn't think I had anything suitable in (had missed it on my meal plan and it has to be something that can be totally prepared in advance and reheated or ready in sc) however, took a moment, looked at freezer list, realised I could stretch some meat in there and so that's shortly to go in sc along with some dried borlotti beans soaked overnight and cooking now and various other veggies :T

Other things:
Portion and freeze remaining beans
Take chickpea curry made overnight in sc for lunch. Hope it tastes ok, used almond milk instead of expensive tinned coconut milk
Submit claim on health cash policy
Post 2 cards
Check banking
Change 2 x SO
Sort out some clothes friend generously gave me
Pay money I made at recent sale to 1p fund :T
Drink enough water, take refillable bottle to work

Have a good day everyone Purps.

My mum used to do this when I was little (but without the Greek yogurt - I don't think we had Greek yogurt in those days...). Make jelly and when it's almost-but-not-quite set, she would pour in a small tin of evaporated milk. I would then get to whisk it with a hand whisk - it was one of the first 'cooking' things I remember doing!

Like yours, my Mum used evaporated milk, I loved this, happy memories.

CLF good to hear all is okay with your eye.

PurpleFairy well done on managing to resolve the meal plan problem.

Not much to report here, I'll keep on plodding on.

ccl - I hope that ex-h turns up ok. It's def right that he's not your responsibility though.

Eye is back to normal today but they were both very achy by the time I went to bed! Feeling a bit brighter though so maybe it was preying on my mind more than I realised.

Today's mission:

• B/L/D from stores - done
• Charge phone in work - done
• Used the last of the saved bath water for flushing the loo - done
• Gym at lunchtime - done
• No alcohol - this will be hard today as could really fancy a wine or beer.
• Sort budget sheet for SOM, check I've been paid - done
• OH to do an hour's teaching - cancelled
• OH to do housework - done
• Poss go to cafe after work but not sure I can be bothered - going. All from budgeted spends
• Check garden, water seedlings in greenhouse - done
• Bit of useful crochet as did personal knitting last night - knitted
• Nip to the Range after work to look at ribbon - done

Have a good one all

Morning all.

Determined to keep track on this post.

Today:
* update spreadsheet with payday in's and out's
* charge phone at work later
* all packed lunches from fridge and cupboard (although I am out of plain crisps so need to restock those)
* finish a papercut order to pass on to my boss. Need to decide on price though and I am rubbish at that part of my crafting. Also, pick a couple to frame to take to a local shop for sale hopefully
* sort out our spare change jars and consolidate ready for holiday at end of May
* sort out some more craft bits to sell on
* list some paperbacks I no longer want
* already hoovered downstairs before work today

Might be more to add later

Morning all,

Todays list
* wash 3 loads on the quick 30 degree wash and hang on the line to dry (2 out there now + one in machine)
* ds2 to free school breakfast club
* gym session done and refilled water bottle there
* coffee/catch up with a good friend, used loyalty points so no spend there
* popped into home bargains and bought just the 1 item I wanted (didn't even pick up a basket as when I do that I seem to spend more in there!)
* check banking/update spreadsheet and then email it to myself, going to start doing my cashbook on a different computer in the house as this one isn't working very well and I worry I'll lose my stuff!
* rm surveys
* put dried washing away - none should need ironing today if it dries out on the line
* prep food before the kids come home as ds1 has a test tomorrow which he's asked me to test him on tonight.
* make families lunches for tomorrow
* continue sorting wardrobes upstairs
* look to book a few days away in the summer in progress, got a price but have emailed the company to ask for a cheeky discount code if possible (worth a try I thought!)
* look again at dh's annual leave chart to see if we can change some time off so that it works better for us done just need to update my calendar now

Thats my starter, take care all.
