    Well it has been touch and go, as I have not much funds. Had the move, which has taken all my savings, and some. Being off ill means that there is little in the pot now. So a budget of £500 spending, has had to be cut by half! Scary. But I have a few euros left from last year, and my Dad has been kind enough to give me a few too.!
    Unfortunately for me, DS will not be joining me, as he has opted to stay at home and go to school, at the new one, to catch up on his work.!! But BF has been able to get his other son to join us after the first few days. So at least all of his kids are coming!.
    My bag was packed days ago. The euros are in my handbag, and so is my passport. Just got to wait until Sunday, (oh and go home again with the last of the stuff from the house, and pick up my Camera and the menu plan, and the basic ingredients that I always take, to ease the budget.):rotfl: :rotfl:
    When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.

    Have a good holiday mooloo.

    I have had some expenses through today - I don't claim much from work so leave it to build up over a few months then claim it when it looks like a worthwhile figure! So today I got almost £100 back!!! So I have paid £100 to the egg loan and coloured in 2 squares :j

    I have got some storage boxes now, so can start packing up "stuff" and storing it - if the box hasn't been opened by Easter, it can go!!

    I also got 2 charity bags through the door today which is great because it means I can leave loads of stuff outside next week and it will be taken away, saving me the petrol to get my stuff to the charity shop!

    See - it is all coming together!!

    I am off out for a run (loose description of the word there!) with P. we are going to attempt 5 miles. I reckon if we start at our planned time of 7.15, we may be home by midnight :rotfl:

    yup :D 5.4 miles without stopping in 59 mins. We amazed ourselves!! Considering we did half that on Wednesday, and we thought that was pretty good!!

    I have a sneaky suspicion that I will be in some pain tomorrow.........so no running tomorrow - we are heading out again on Sunday.

    I still have a mystery shop to input though - must make sure I don't ignore my MSE duties :rolleyes:

    Well done you :T:T:T and well done Pania :T:T:T
    That's a great achievement - makes me feel ashamed of my own slack approach to running.

    Well done - I should have had timed swims tonight at staff training but cos of my chest, throat infection and laryingitis I didn;t have to do it, which was a good job cos the other 6 there ranged in age from 17 to 22 !!!!!

    Off to Brighton tomorrow to look at the University. I may manage 10 items to declutter on Sunday. Keep up the good work Hypno !!!!!
