Just been going through my emails and i have finally been approved for Adsense,
So i would be extremely grateful if all you lovely folks could click on the adverts (you can click straight off them again)
Then hopefully my debt free journey will be a tiny bit quicker.
Thank you
until later

Just dropping by to say Hello
Just wanted to say hello and welcome my new follower.
As i have said before its lovely to know your not talking to yourself....
I'm sat huddled in my blanket with a nice mug of tea.OH will be home soon,
DD is out until tomorrow night, so i don't feel bad about not having heating on.
Its 5.10pm and its still quite light outside, its lovely to actually see the days getting longer.Roll on Spring i say.I read today that its already been the coldest February in 25 years.I can vouch for that as when i input my meter readings this morning my usage had shot up.Now this wasn't turning up the thermostat it must be that the heating had to come on more to get up to 17/18 degrees.I'm glad its nearly the end of the quarter as the next one should be a bit better( she says with fingers crossed)
Had a houseful last night inlaws came for dinner and DS and his girlfriend popped around as well.Lovely evening.MIL gave me a vintage coffee maker ,Sunbeam.I have mentioned to her before that i would like one even though i don't like coffee,but i love the smell and i can just make a jug for others to drink cant i.
Tonight is going to be a quite one.Soup for dinner if OH doesn't moan and homemade bread.We eat big proper meals ever day so it will make a change just to have a simple meal.
For all those UK bloggers that want to save a few pence. Persil non bio washing liquid is half price in both Tesco and Morrison, down to £3.20 for 28 washes,drop me an email if your interested in details of a coupon to bring it down further.

Also Dettol antibacterial spray £1 in Tesco .same as above...
Just going to start catching up on other blogs

1 month closer
I have just finished my days work and its now time to relax.
I finished my cleaning job and then had to collect a basket of ironing.Even though it was the last thing i felt like doing,i had to do it straight away as it has to be dropped off when i finish work tomorrow.
Managed to get to the bank and phone shop.DD managed to drop her phone in her bowl of soup last night and her phone screen went white.Its insured and under warranty so wont be out of pocket,she just has to wait for it to be sent off ,probably 2 weeks.
As DD is a normal teenager her phone is so important to her so they gave us a loan phone.
Tonight we are going out for a meal,DD and her Bf are taking us out to say thank you for driving them to London,Looking forward to it.
Finally sorted out my complaint about the meal we had a few weeks ago which was horrendous.We were offered 25% off our meal at the same restaurant, which i refused.Spoke to the area manager last night and he was very apologetic and we now have a free 3 course meal for 4 at our local branch.Just have to wait for his letter now.
Nearly forgot to say as i managed to get to the bank, we are now a month closer to our mortgage being paid off ,this obviously depends on snowballing going to plan.
Hope your weekend is going well
Until later

Physio
This afternoon DD had her 1st physio session at the hospital.She was assessed,
It turns out she also has low arches which is apparently bad for her knees and will need to go to her GP to be referred for that.It seems 1 thing after another.
Physio was painful but needs to be done.She is improving by the day but it will be a long time before shes allowed to wear heels again.Another session in 10 days.
Very tired tonight its been a long week.I would say I'm pleased its Friday but I'm working Saturday and Sunday.
Just made a cake and now sat with a cup of tea...lovely
Hope everyone is well

Little Treat
I know we are ploughing all monies into paying off our debts but today i booked for us to have 1 night away in May.
We need something to look forward too otherwise it all gets a bit depressing .We have stopped doing so much,
So seeing that Travelodge were having a £10 sale i thought i would try and get hold of a room.
I asked OH if he could have 1 night away where would he like to go and he said The Cotswolds.So after an hour of trying early this morning i managed to book Burford which is approx 6 miles from Bourton on the Water.I even managed to get a bank holiday we are going 6th May and come home on 7th.
Did anyone else try to book a room?
Dinner tonight was ham ,egg and chips.Ham went in slow cooker this morning.It was delicious and lots left again.
My first Swagbucks Amazon voucher has arrived in my account and im on my way to getting my 2 nd one.
Spud shillings are also building up nicely .These are all going to be used for presents.Birthdays and Christmas.
Its blooming cold here DD isnt home again tonight so heating was off and gas fire was on as only one room was being used,had to give in and turn heating on as OH wanted a shower and bathroom was freezing.
Stay warm and stay safe

Soup
Campbell soup
Here's a link to Campbell's web page. I f you fill your details in you get emailed a 20 p off coupon,which can be printed off.
In Asda they have a new variety of the soup for 50p so 30 p after you have used the coupon,Here are 2 i picked up this evening,they come in 2 sizes and a few different flavours.
Hope this helps some of you.
I am always on the look out for coupons as i begrudge paying full price for anything. I must admit i love Extreme couponing and would love for us to have the same opportunities as the U.S.A
Does anyone else use coupons?
OH is just off to pick up a ladder off free cycle,that's another site i love,tend to do most of my decluttering to freecycle.
Still havent heard any more about Adsense,does anyone know how long it normally takes to get up and running?

Chocolate Fudge Pudding
Today i tried a recipe that was posted on a Diary of Frugal family
here it is
Chocolate Fudge Pudding
We all enjoyed it.
The girls came over tonight so we had a fun evening.
Watched the Graffalos Child with little one given us a running commentary of what is going to happen.
A bit more money earned today which went to debt busting,getting there slowly but surely.
Just off to catch up on every ones bloggs and to see if they had a more interesting day than me.
Until later
