    Ok Julie - I forgot to say earlier - well done on your amazing weight loss - this flying in half hour slots must be helping too. The reason we're off to the leisure centre is that we've all put on weight this summer so need to get rid of it all again - I blame all the baking I've been doing!
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

  • Morning lovely ladies

    Been up and about early for a change.

    Went off to Mr M at 8 to do weeks shopping and see if I could get any of their games they have on special offer this week (thinking get there early - their delivery comes midday!) Did get a couple tho, one for the Wii which will go in the box for Jesus birthday :rotfl: the other one was for DD's Nintendo DS which is the cooking one which she's been after so may not be able to keep it til then. Then went off to Farmfoods for leg of lamb for lunch tomorrow and Mr T for bits I couldnt get elsewhere. Not going to venture into town as paydays not til Monday :eek: .

    Good job I checked my spam yesterday as I'd placed an order for the Wii fit which they had cancelled and the email had gone into there. Luckily was able to reorder last night as I'd entered the wrong expiry date on my card details :o .

    Had breakfast with the kids when I came in at 10 so they're now off to dress then its Kaz's krew challenge again today.

    Plan
    Clean out fridge
    Put shopping away
    Sort washing
    Load WM and TD
    HHC in kids rooms
    Lunch
    HHC in our room (when OH gets up he's on nights again)
    Update finances/spends on computer
    Catch up on anything else
    Mortgage, we're getting there with the end in sight £6587 07/23, otherwise free of the debt thanks to MSE help!
