    Wow, beds, cooker and some carpet getting sorted, that's brilliant. Sure that will make the house feel better. Hope one of the beds is for you. Sounds like you are making great progress and OH is getting there.

    It will be over the next few months as hers are sorted. She wanted to wait till she was confident my sister wasn't going back to hers.

    Yes a bed for us :)

    Thank you. Maybe it won't. Im not getting my hopes up until the items are actually here.

    However I can start with small things and either way it's progress :)

    I need to bake the cakes today. However it's the first 'big' cake I've made since the oven door broke. I hope it works or it could end up aa just fairy cakes :p

    The new cooker would be a great start. Are you still going to the debt advisers this week?

    Yes still going this week.

    Not much to say today tbh feeling meh. Going to bath the kids after they've had their dinner and get them in bed. OH has gone to a friends for dinner so I didn't bother cooking to meal plan. Kids all had different 'ready meals' so nice and easy. Got the homework and ironing done.

    No payment made today :o will catch it up over the week

    We are going away for the first week of the half term. Not sure how many days/when but we are and tbh it's just what I need. Things are feeling on top of me and I don't want to end up where I did in March. So yeah we're going.
    It won't cost me anything and we'll be fed. We'll take advantage of free entertainment and activities.

    I will 'repay' mum in doing her cleaning and jobs she needs doing etc.

    2 items listed on ebay. 1 has a 99p bid already!

    Room for 1 more to go on before the end of the month.

    Enjoy your holiday Hidden, I really think it'll do you good and you'll come back refreshed and feeling a whole lot better. It would probably cost you more if you stayed at home so really it's money saving.

    Hope everything goes ahead with all the household items, it'll be a weight off your shoulders that it isn't things you have to find money for anytime in the near future to replace/buy.

    I'm looking forward to some time away. Thank you CT

    Well Monday again. Not that my moods any better :o

    Daily chores to do and not much else planned. Might try to squeeze a visit to my mums or sisters in if either are available.

    Kids didn't want to go to school today, ds even tried to convince me he had a broken leg :rotfl:

    No change on the money front. Less than £1 in the bank but £40 on its way from PayPal. All a bit boring really just waiting around
