Just spent most of my budget for the week on a new duvet to cheer myself up. Didn't work. Now feel more depressed. And skint

When you decide to be your own hairdresser and it all goes horribly, terribly wrong. 😭😳😱💇🏻💇🏻💇🏻

I've signed up to #happn and it is hilarious. Destined to be single forever I think #SingleMumProblems

On the plus side picked up a whole duck dirt cheap so cooked my son's fave dinner, crispy duck, from scratch. Lunches for 3 days too

Normal people get a cold and are ill for 2 days then back to normal. Not me. 5 days of feeling like death so far. Loving life

Exhausted. Working 10 hour days with no one to share the work load at home is crippling me

[Life On A Budget @LifeOnABudgetUK]

When you get home to find the chicken for tonight's dinner has gone off 2 days before it goes out of date. Thanks #morrisons

We've nearly completed the first week back at school/work! High five to me! Think I deserve a cider tonight 🍺

Tricked the child into thinking it's really late so he goes to sleep and I can eat Pringles and watch tv by myself #ParentGoals

I've been asking my child to clean his room for the whole 6 weeks. Today I've given up and I'm doing it. Prepare to lose some toys, boy!

There's a pile of washing up by the sink but I'm too hot to move 🔥☀️☀️🌋 #heatwave #toohottohandle #toohot #sunshine #summer

Why have elephants got big ears? Cos Noddy wouldn't pay the ransom! #bestchildishjokes #noddy #lol

Being told by energy/water companies if I didn't work I'd pay less & get more help #benefitsbritain #norewardforhardwork #unfair
