    Had a fabby day! Went to see the boys and had a really fast ride as all the tracks were covered in snow, my poor chap couldn't keep up with the ex-racehorse but he did his best and needed his cooler on when we got back. However the little sod has managed to lose both his front shoes, ok when its snowy not when its thawed. Farrier not due until beginning of March. I'll have to ring and grovel to see if he can fit me in.

    Been into town and sorted out OHs paperwork to make me a partner. Also done some food shopping as I'm having some friends over for lunch tomorrow. Will have to crack on and get the place spick and span.

    Going to have my mum to stay for a few days next week. We are meeting up on Sunday and then she is coming back with us. Payday tomorrow, how much more can we get paid back?

    No Nothing like STP. You can sell CDs, DVDs and games you enter the barcode on the back of your CDs and they offer you a price for them. They send you out postage lables (its freepost) you send them off and then you get a cheque. You could maybe get more on ebay or amazon but this suits me and dead easy.

    Not done very much since Friday when I had some friends over for lunch. DD2 is not at school as its closed, so she has been helping to make doughnuts. I think they will all be eaten by morning. For tonights tea we are having sausage and apple pie, followed by raspberry and apple crumble with cream.

    Managed to get 1 lot of Avon delivered. Still got another lot to go. Hoping to go up to the boys tomorrow, depending on the weather. Farrier is coming on Thursday early in the morning.

    Had to cancel having my mum over due to the weather and this has been rearranged for the beginning of March. Have paid £4.90 off target card which is part of DD2s dinner and swimming money.

    Finally managed to get the Abbey National sorted out. Taken all money out bar a £1 so that should annoy them.

    At last some good news but not really DF news. 2 of my children have dyslexia so every Wednesday they go for specialist tuition. Our computer is on its last legs and I have applied to a charity for a new one and some specialist software for the children. I have just found out that we have been successful. Gosh I am so pleased.

    Hoping to get the 2nd lot of Avon delivered tonight as the next order needs to be in by Friday. The delivery has been hampered by snow and OH being on nights. It really does seem to be taking me longer and longer to get the darn things out. The sooner we are DF the sooner I can give up Avon!

    Yesterday I had 2 children off because of the snow so paid another £4.90 off the card and today managed a whopping sum of £2.62! It will be gone by April (March if I can). OHs car is due its MOT next week, so prayers are being offered to the God of MOTs to get it through.
