DD has just brought a letter home saying that one of the year 6 pupils whose been ill for a while died this morning Quickly scanned it and put it straight in the recycle bin outside before it set me off crying again.

Had a word with DD about having to cut right back in order to pay off the debts so now I'm going to sit down and try and work out a proper budget. Time to hit a few other challenges on here I think :wave:

Thats terrible Nicki, did your DD know them well? Hugs for the 2 of you.
Have you been up to the grocery challenge? Loads of good money saving ideas.

Not done too badly considering the way I feel this week (and last week)! Don't think I'll do much more today other than the dailies and hoovering the bedroom.

The rest of the day looks like this:
Bath girls
Empty / refill dishwasher
Make Chilli
hoover bedroom and mattress
Ask DH to put clean bedding on

Doesn't look too bad when I put it in a list but DD2 is such hard work at the moment its difficult to get much done when she's not in bed. She's definately more lively than DD1 ever was. Good job she's cute!!! You deserve a medal Michelle,(and anyone else with very little ones) its hard enough with an 18 month old nevermind a new baby as well.

Suppose I'd best make a start. Giving the girls an early bath so we can all eat tea together at 5.30 when DH home. Think I'll start the bath running then empty the DW.

**gives self motivational kick**

I stuck the washing out earlier and dried it all before the rain came back. Then I went to bed because I've got a terrible headache, really banging, and feel a bit sick. It's dulled a bit now after 3 hours in bed but not completely gone. I can take one more lot of tablets about 5 o'clock so I'm hoping that will do the trick before I go to work. I don't often get bad headaches but this is a corker.

But it's only a headache, lots of people on here are ill or have children or partners who are ill and I do know they are much worse off than me
