Happy Easter everyone, looks like lots of early posters!
Am hoping for a productive day, especially after my crap day yesterday!
My dfw things for today:
-Play some free bingo, thanks to a code i received for a free £20 from a bingo site i used to play on ages ago. - Done, now trying to arrange it so that i play enough of the free money in order to be able to withdraw!
-Make a nice Sunday lunch - Done
-Sort out whether it is ok for me to do the mystery shops today because i was unable to do them yesterday, then do the mystery shops tonight.- Sorted now and no probs
-Do some studying for O.U course - Finished one unit and part way through another, will finish later whilst on the bus to my mystery shops, if i've got to go out i may as well make the most of it!
-Do some studying for massage course - Folder sorted and up to date.
-Do my daily clicks - Done
-Work through emails - Done
-Check online banking
-Sort out putting bookmarks from old computer onto new computer
-Dry, iron and put away rest of clothes - Done
-Sign up for tesco clubs in the hope of earning more clubcard points - Done
-Check what food i have and do some meal planning with it, in the hope of making it last longer - Done
-Look at placing an online shops and finding a code to use
-Look at what veg i can grow in pots in the hope of cutting down on the food bill - Done
-Clean bathroom, do hoovering and mop floors
-Look on here for more ways of making/saving money - Done
Think thats it for me, although the household jobs are not dfw it helps me to concentrate on what i do have to do so hope no one minds.
Enjoy your Easter everyone.

Hi,
Went to my Weight Watchers meeting, and found that in 2 weeks, I have put on 3lb's (so angry with myself,my current weight number scares me, and makes me realise that my thoughts of having a baby are slipping away :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::eek::mad::mad::mad:) - sorry for the icons, its how I feel!
Anyhow back to DFW:- Mum bought me a coffee (saving £3.60)
- I had to put petrol in the car, so that was £40 (petrol is so expensive at the moment)
Oh, and I will try to find a notebook, so that I can do Candy's weight loss journey - the emotional side of weight loss, then sell the publishing rights to a big publisher, make £millions :T:T:T, pay off my debts, have plastic surgery (lipo) and live happily ever after sailing the high seas.
Sounds like a planDebts at the start of my journey - about £23,000 lightbulb moment 01.03.2007 (1st payment to CCCS)..Debt Free Date 25.06.2013 Deposit savings £17,000/£30,0000 -

Try not to get too down about the weight issues, just take it a day at a time and you will get there eventually. :grouphug: sending you a dodgy hug.0 -

Hi All (again)
Thanks for all the (dodgy looking) hugs.
Funny how a shower can make the world of difference. Used a really nice shower gel, left the conditioner on for ages and generally chilled out.Debts at the start of my journey - about £23,000 lightbulb moment 01.03.2007 (1st payment to CCCS)..Debt Free Date 25.06.2013 Deposit savings £17,000/£30,0000
