I'm Mrs Tine and I'm addicted to DFW ways...
-I spent 4 days researching where to buy the cheapest terramundi before buying one.
-I check my husbands pockets every day for £2 coins to feed the terramundi - to his annoyance as I don't always tell him and he thinks he has £2 when he does
-I check every bill that has "estimated usage" on it against my actual meter readings and get in a huff if they have over estimated...
-I check my bank account daily and have panic attacks if something has gone out that I can't immediately recognise.
-OH got a bit annoyed at my habit of turning things off at the plug when the other day he wanted to dry a shirt for work and TD didn't work... I'd turned it off and he didn't realise. He thought it was broken.
-I feel slightly sick when I have to spend money.
-I have started to eye up anything that doesn't move and wonder about the possibility of Ebaying it... Can you Ebay fatcats and lazy husbands? If they don't start moving about...
