Cuddlymarms 2025 new start

Good morning guys
Today is sunny but absolutely freeeeeezing here. At least I can dress up in lots of layers, I made the mistake of not putting enough on the other day and it took ages to get warm again. Never mind, the weatherman says it’s going to be warmer Tuesday onwards.
I’ve had chocolates off one son and a bread maker book off the other so I’m a happy girl and the house will smell fabulous when I get chance to use it.
My boss is seeing a couple of potential people this week for the two day vacancy so by May at the latest I should be down to 3 regular days every week which will be nice. This week I have 5 in a row and by Thursday my joints will be whinging.
I’ve cancelled my T online subscription but I’m tied in until July so I’ll do a heavy, bulky shop occasionally to make use of it until then. But apart from that I’m going to buy what I need a couple of times a week if needed. I can see what I’m buying if I go in. Unfortunately when you buy online some of the packets are smaller than expected.
Anyway enough of my ramblings
Have a lovely day

Hi guys
Checking in time. 

I shopped this morning and was very good, ignoring the sweets, biscuits and icecream aisle and only buying what was necessary.
 I’ve really fallen off the diet wagon since the wedding, but I really must lose some weight. My knees and back aren’t happy after a day on my feet at work. I’m still waiting to go onto 3 days.
Anyway the weather has been lovely this week, a bit chilly at times Hopefully the Easter hols will be lovely.
We had beef stew done in the slow cooker with fresh bread for tea ( with lots left over ) so another meal all ready. 

Not much happening now until June when we go to France, so it’s just frugal living until I get the euros saved up.
My wardrobe is looking ok, I just need a couple of t shirts as I’ve been wearing them under jumpers through winter.
Apart from that not much to say.

Hope the new work pattern can start soon.
glad you enjoyed the wedding.

Good morning 
I love a clear blue sky in a morning, it’s a bit chilly but that I can cope with.
Yesterday was spent with our lovely granddaughter. She just makes me happy. She’s growing up so fast and at times I’m not sure whether she thinks she’s looking after us rather than the other way round.
I’m back at work today and am hoping for a busy day. Some of the schools have already broken up for Easter and time passes quicker when you’re busy.
OH is in charge of tea so that will be a surprise.
My payment a days are doing well. I’m managing £20 a day off the CC at the moment. They may have to go down later in the month as it’s DS2s birthday and we go out for something to eat. There’s a nice bbq ribs place, not cheap but yummy.
I must really get back on the diet wagon. I’m just staying the same at the moment and really do need to get some weight off and get fitter. My joints are complaining and if the cancer comes back in the future I need to be fit enough to fight it.
As it’s a five week month the money has to stretch that little bit further.
Anyway bye for now

Hi guys
Happy Easter 
Ijust realised that I haven’t checked in for a while.
I’m off now until Wednesday so I’ve had a lazy day. Yesterday was busy but not many people spending, all small sales. I can relate to that, only necessary spends.
On the up side DS2 had a nice bottle of red wine which we had with tea. It’s been a football and now formula 1 day on tv so I’m just putting my feet up.
On the workfront the new staff member has been told she has the job but now we have to wait for her police checks coming back and then her being trained so probably I’ll be going down to 3 days in a month at the latest.
On the money front DS2s birthday is next week and we always eat out for that but apart from that I’m trying not to spend. Probably just milk and veg until I get paid.
My PADs are aimed at the spends and food for the French hol. I get paid while we are away in June so I can dip into that in really needed but as it’s a caravan it’s not madly expensive, we tend to live on bread, cheese and barbeques.
Apart from that life’s slow but good.
Keep well
Cuddles
