Mizmir's determined to get there diary

mizmir

Well managed to do my meal plan:

Sat: Mushroom stroganoff and rice (WW)
Sun: Duck stir fry (cheap duck - less than chicken!)
Mon: away - work will pay for dinner!
Tues: Friend staying - roast chicken dinner
Wed: Prob. out with friend - if not chicken pasta bake
Thur: chicken pasta bake (or if had that on wed - quorn spag bol)
Fri: BIL staying spicy couscous and posh sausages

Have to pick up a chicken at the butcher but otherwise all ingredients covered and lots left over for next week!

Meal plan looks good and I'm browsing as well as I don't want to my accounts.

Can be a great way to put things off MSE can't it? I have been on here all morning - with the odd break to put the washing on or look at recipes! I can feel a wimbledon final coming on as well......

LOL..don't like tennis that's more likely to make we want to do the books.

Putting together the bookie list i see there are LOADS I haven't done yet. Granted they are a bit more complicated but there are so many I have got bored looking them all up. Have found some useful referral sites too. Hypno - do you know gamblingtimes? And top100bookmakers looks handy too. So am rather more encouraged on the MB front and will work through the new set steadily.

Ooh, I have not got as far as bookies yet, and I am narked because of the "after 9am" rule in the skybet tennis final t&cs - I was stuck at the bottom of a ski slope and my dongle had run out of credit so I couldn't do that one.....oh well.....

I will be doing the canbet one over the next few days though and I still have some VC work to be doing to work through their £200 freebie (5 x £50 bets and they will give you another £50 free - 4 times) .

I need to have a clear head on me though, and at the mo I am stuffed with tiredness, so not a good idea to MB.....:eek:

Looks like I should've waited on the freebie for skybet as the odds have got closer and people are getting better results. That said can't complain - £26 is £26! Have done VC before their offer improved. Part of my problem is that I can't remember which of the more obscure ones I have done! But am working through and pulling out the ones I know I haven't! Interwetten is one of my first ones to go as they have a lot of reloads I believe.

Have a good rest tonight. I won't be doing canbet for a few days - need to let the skybet thing work through the system especially as Venus won 2-0! :rolleyes:

• [strike]Update budgets and spreadsheets for July[/strike] DONE - and scarily heavily spent by this early point in the month! :eek: Will be storecupboards later I think....
• [strike]Work out meal plan for next week[/strike] DONE - with lots to carry forward to next week.
• [STRIKE]Book tickets [/STRIKE]and do expense forms for work Next on the list....
• [strike]Prepare list of bookies to do[/strike] DONE - have 40+ bookies to work through now!
• [strike]Do the Skybet tennis offer[/strike]DONE - coming out with £26.67 profit - not great on a £50 freebet but with the limited markets, low liquidity and shifting odds I thought I would not be greedy...! Note - probably jumped too early - some really good odds now. :rolleyes: Ah well - still £26 I didn't have yesterday....
  
• Do the canbet reload offer (post) Might leave a day or two depending on whether I have anything left in BF after tomorrow's tennis!
• Seek out, photograph and prepare listings for 20 things for ebay on Tuesday (5p day) ooh - had forgotten this one. One for tomorrow
• Mow lawn way too wet today - perhaps tomorrow if the wind continues to dry things out.
• Take dogs for looooonnnnngggg walk (not just the usual round the park - good exercise for me too) ditto - they refuse to go out in the rain!
• Top up soil in salad potatoes - still to do
• Contact designer about business leaflet - will see if I can track down the leaflet - that would be progress on that.
• [strike]Book car into garage [/strike]DONE - should be sorted on Tuesday
• [strike]Check online banking[/strike] DONE - still looking healthy for point in month

Well given this is a weekend list am doing OK. Let's hope the weather is better tomorrow for some of the outdoor stuff.

Thats a big list! And its got lots of crosses and red bits on - congratulations!

And I'm full of admiration with managing to do a tennis matched bet. I wish I'd made the time to study all of that. Ah well, I made a start this year, I'll push for a lot more next year.
