This is what it looked like:-

- Tidy room and make bed

- Do homework
- Clean table after dinner

- Do homework
This did work quite well an apart from my thirteen year old no one moaned but even he got over it quite quickly. I let my daughter off laying the table because she had a lot of homework and she had both year five and year six homework for maths which was quite challenging. I have always felt that school work should take priority over other things so mummy laid the table.
Exercise
Today I walked to and from school twice - As most of you know this is quite a journey so I have walked about six miles today.
Money spent
This evening Liam, my eight year old and I went to ASDA, I knew I was running out of cereal, lunch meat, washing powder and drinks.
I spent £25.00 but I did get quite a lot of drinks, two boxes of cereals, two birthday cakes for 45p each which I cut up and put in the freezer for lunches, lunch meats, ready made chicken curries for tomorrows dinner (my daughter has choir and then a tea party at brownies and I am at work all day so we need a quick meal).
Well that's it from me, I am off to have a bath. Have a lovely evening. Take care xx
