    Hypno, I have had a terrible time, what with the burglary of my purse, savings box etc. But reading your thread reminded me that I was not the only one having trouble. Your grocery challenge for £50 is doable if you are on top of things. Although as prices go up at the moment its getting harder.
    I fit everything in on £65, but I waste so much, and I have not been keeping to my menu plan.#
    Dont forget to go over to the start of the July grocery challenge as they have posted the links to most of the good recipies. I dont know how to post a link or I would.
    good luck with it all. (Can I just say one thing? if the * that stole my purse/and savings tin is alive, canthey be needer than me, and if not may they suffer......nits....or something worse?)
    When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.

    I am shaken about it all, as it was obviously through one of the family/visitor leaving the back door open.? Even worse it was one of them. But i have been lucky that one of my twins was still in possesion of one of the bank cards so we were able to transfer some of it on the internet before /just incse it went walk about.
    It has been a bad few days for me. Loosing £80 plus was bad when the whole point of us being here is money saving. But the thing I have to think about is that the rest of the technology didnt go too?
    I have never cried so much, as I did on Friday. it was one of the most emotional days I have ever had.
    The worst thing is distrusting all around me now.
    My twins have gone out with the house visitor( who came back today), and I am worried about the doors, and should I go to bed. Both babies are in bed, I hope they will stay asleep.
    Ds still has school tomorrow. Lets hope he will stay there tomorrow.
    If he gets another of his headaches then I will be very suspicious as he hasnt had one this weekend/
    :rolleyes:

    I wish you could find an easy way to get rid of the house visitor, it can't be helpful with everything else that is going on in your life.

    And you really can't be there last thing at night like a jailer waiting till all your inmates are safely in; you will damage your health. You need some time off duty - we all do.:easter: (can't find an appropriate smilie, so you got a random one :rotfl: )

    Well done to the Hypno-kids, and to you Hypno, for managing to stay positive through a really tough time.

    Mooloo, I'm sorry about your burglary, it must be awful. We were robbed a few years ago, and it's themost horrible thing - your home is supposed to be the place where you are safe, and to have it violated is psychologically very difficult to come to terms with.

    Sorry to read of your problems mooloo and I hope that things get settled again very soon for you - we were burgled a few years ago, and it still makes me go :mad: every now and again.

    Day off work for me today as I have a couple clients booked in. However, before they arrive I need to clear up because the place is not the "calming space" it really needs to be :o

    So a list is in order today:
    • phone mystery shop
    • submit two other mystery shops
    • check online banking against "bills still to pay" list
    • make house ready for clients
    • see clients
    • play free b!ngo
    • play paddy bonus money when received and withdraw
    • stick to meal plan
    • go for a NSD
    • post ebay parcel
    • ring inland revenue
    Have a good one everyone x
