Isn't it a glorious day? :j
3 lots of washing on the line - 4th in machine! A few hours worth of ironing tonight methinks. Anything good on the box??
DS playing in the garden.
Me - chucking stuff - bigger useful stuff to Freecycle, 2 bags on the go for the charity shop, small pile for Ebay. Have decided to give my fancy ornaments to local charity shop - they are collectables and should raise some pennies. I could Ebay them but they sell better if seen, I've enjoyed them now it's time to pass the enjoyment on. Found the bottom of my sideboard which has not been seen since new - best go clean it now before I'm told too.
MoamAlthough no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.

I've got oodles of washing done too.. and hubby is merrily ironing his work shirts in teh kitchen.. I was watching but he kept talking to me and I've got a really sore throat so didn't want to answer.. though I've just realised my hayfever drugs must have kicked in because I've stopped snotting and sneezing and my eyes aren't itching and watering.. cool!!
I have half a binbag for charity shop and I've barely started. I've a couple of bits listed on ebay.. FLING! and my parcels ready to go!
Hubby is doing the children a BBQ for dinner.. they are most excited.. lolLB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -

Tia.. I hope you went through quidco as they pay cashback on the orders too! I was paid £3.78 for my £90 order lol.. I thought it would cost me 10p.. then I had a validated cashback of £3.88 when I looked..
ooohh.. hubby has decided ironing is working.. so why is it not working when I do it?? and if ironing is working is vacuuming which is harder work? I'll go ask... *evil grin*LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -

Hi all
Can I come back to the fold please ??? I lost it a bit because hubby went to part time hours and I have been diagnosed with PND and I totally lost the swing of things. As of tomorrow though DH is back in work full time and I am going to e home alone dealing with the house, budgets and other bitsI am actually quite scared over all this - I seem to have lost all confidence.
So I have re-joined here (if thats ok) and also the Grocery Challenge and I am going to give this my best shot.
