    INOD they are already gone into the recycling bag. Not going to dwell on it as I cannot change what's happened. I can however ensure that I can move forard positively.

    I had to get a new phone today. I've ordered the i-Phone 4s as it is the cheaper option. It's £29 per month but I do really need it. I cannot speak to anyone on my current phone as the speaker is bust. I also ant to download the cashback apps for my shopping so I can get some more cashback. I can probably make a lot of the money back that I miss out on just now. I will also set up my e-mail on the phone so I can do some surveys etc at lunchtime in work which means they will not all need done at night time when I am tired. Justified :rotfl:

    One foot infront of the other...keep going (even if they do ache from your trip still :D). That was then, this is now - you've got heating you didn't have and a working phone to come! :p

    Who said YOLO? ;) And decluttering is always good. :)

    Great idea to use your lunchtime to earn bits and pieces too. I've not quite got to grips with things on my smartphone for shopping, better get my teenager onboard, he's bound to know this stuff :rotfl:

    Hope the sun shines this week too. :)

    Thanks Ali. Funny how we need reminding of what path we are on at times. YOLO right enough

    I've been watching T in the park all weekend and it has been amazing. I am going next year. 50 won't be too old will it ? LOL like I care.DD has had an amazing time apparently and I reckon it's because she is there with friends and not being dragged down by her ex. Hopefully this will be opening her eyes to a new type of life and making her more determined to keep away from him. I can't wait till she is home tomorrow for all her stories. She will no doubt be exhausted, smelly and dirty (eew) so I will make sure she can just get straight to the shower and her bed. I miss her immensely though.

    A day at home today. Waiting on my phone being delivered and am waiting on DD coming home:D. I've already had a text requesting macaroni cheese, chips and bread and butter for her dinner. She must be hungry :rotfl:. Am also going to pop on a pot of soup so she can have that as soon as she gets in.

    I have done a menu plan as I have lots in for eating. I need a few things and will pop to Aldi later for that but not needing a lot. Hopefully be under £25.

    Going to start on cleaning out my kitchen cupboards as they desperately need it. Also going to clean the oven. This is the job I detest so I will do it first.

    Catch you all later xx

    My girl is home safe and sound. So pleased to see her. She is as brown as a berry and completely exhausted but her eyes are shining and she is the picture of health. Looks amazing and very happy. DD is an apprentice at the moment and one of her tradesmen is 24 and I have thought for a wee while that they liked each other as he is very attentive of her and when going to T he insisted that her and er friend camped next to him and his friends so that he could look after them. Nothing has ever come out of their relationship as they had both been going out with people long term. Now that DD has finished with her bf they had an amazing weekend and he has told her he has been in love with her for over a year ( aww) he is ending it with his g/f as my DD refuses to get into anything whilst he is with someone. This has the potential to be messy :eek:. He is a few years older than DD and she is definitely seeing a difference with him as he is very kind and really looks after her. I really like him but am a bit wary of the fact he has a girlfriend already. I don't want my girl hurt and also feel for the lassie he is in a relationship with. Oh the drama

    2 cupboards scrubbed out in my kitchen and also oven. They were the worst ones so the rest of it should be easy peasy. I'll do some more tomorrow.

    I got my new phone and already love it. Just need to figure out i tunes and the cloud :eek: all double dutch at the minute I'm afraid.

    I best go and make the macaroni as requested

    Well done on that oven cleaning..one here needing alot of attention!

    Glad DD is home safe and well. Ahh, relationships. At least he is willing to finish his current relationship before embarking on one with DD - they both sound very sensible.

    Unlike someone I know, who continued for a year to see girl a, whilst seeing new girl b. The parents kept out of it - wise people I'd say. All you can do is be there for them through the good and the bad - hopefully it's the 'the good' this time. :)

    I've found Checkoutsmart to be a good one too - I regularly get offers for a 50p credit when I spend over £5. I've used them both for the same amount of time and have had no cashout from Shopetize but £11.80 from CoS with a balance of £3.50 sitting already since my last payment on the 3rd of this month.

    Thanks Moomin I will get that app as well and see how it goes.

    Heading out for lunch today with my Aunty. She treated last time so it's my turn :eek:. DS is coming as well so it'll be an expensive one today. I just want soup tbh as I am getting weighed tonight.

    Feeling a bit bleugh today. It's 2 years tomorrow since my Mum died and I am reliving things a wee bit unfortunately. I would have been by her bedside this time 2 years ago after spending the night with her. I can remember it so vividly and I am feeling it. So I best get busy and keep my mind occupied. My Aunt's husband died 3 years ago today so we are just going to be a bundle of fun today.

    Washing is on but weather looking dubious. Very dark clouds but lots of sun as well. I might take a chance.Am going to clean my windows as window cleaner has been and insides are being shown up for being very dirty. I'm a manky beesom.

    I found 3 dead wasps in my room last night so I convinced myself that I as going to waken up covered in wasps so you can imagine how good my sleep was last night. I was freaked out as I hate wasps and my fear is irrational. I had also had a wasp on my window 2 mornings in a row so I will need to have a check and see if there's a nest nearby :eek:

    So have a lovely day folks. xx

    You might end up having fun with your aunt - sometimes you'll end up telling stories about the person you miss and howling with laughter as well as feeling a wee bit sad :D

    Bonus points for use of the word beesom, I love that one!
