Day 1 ~ New Year, New Start

Well today is the start of a new year and therefore a new start for us both financially, physically and mentally.

I have already got lunch for today prepared - I did it yesterday.

I think I might make the left over mince and onion into a pie later to freeze for another dinner once I find the pastry recipe again that I found yesterday!

I still have 800ml of British Double Cream to use still - the date on it is 31/12/2012 so I need to really use it up ASAP so any recipes will be gratefully appreciated.

I have bags of toys to sort through upstairs to see if I can sell anything on as a small bundle to make few pennies.

Also on that note I need to find the bits and pieces that I have gotten and clearly wont use and I may put them on here in a rafflecopter competition to see if anyone wants them.

I need to seal up my pot for my sealed pot challenge which I meant to do yesterday but I spent the day faffing with my new food processor instead.

I know in my airing cupboard I have bags of material in various neutral colours which I think I might be able to make into something - only down fall is it means I will be hand sewing because I haven't found a sewing machine yet - either that or I've never had money to afford it at the time.

I've also managed to get myself a day ahead with competitions so I have just completed all the ones for the 2nd January so I'm not having to worry about them and I will keep going and get a bit further ahead if I can.

So thats my aims for the day, Holly has just gone down for her nap, Ben is playing on the computer and Owen is sleeping off his hangover on the sofa........best get on with it then really.

Happy New Year All

Love

Sammy
