No Money Mummy to Millionaire Mummy!!

Payday woot woot

I have just made £330 worth of payments. Made over the Minimum payments on each.

So I now owe:

MBNA - £4485
Mothercare - £640
Next - £590
Tesco - £2370
EGG - £4446

£12,531=

MBNA just doesnt seem to be shifting which is really frustrating me. Going on holiday for a week on Monday so not going to make any eaxtra payments until I see how we do. Not going to go wild but would be nice to be able to visit a few places and have a couple of meals out.

Helloooooooooooooooooooooooooo I had THE BEST day yesterday

We took Pip to In The Night Garden Live and he loved it, I really would recommend it to anyone with littlies. He just sat in awe of it all! We had a lovely carvery meal, Mum paid. Came home and there was a letter for OH saying he was getting a £200 tak rebate!!!!! :j I also had an email offering me priority booking for Lee Evans tickets, I have wanted to see him forever so I booked them and thats going to be my next years Birthday present so yes I have paid for the minute but I will get it back shortly.

Possibility of running a Customer Service workshop at OHs workplace, havent agreed until I know how much they were thinking of offering me. It needs to be worth me taking holiday from my proper job for.

Off to Mr Ms now, shouldnt be too expensive as I only need weekend bits as then we are away.

Have a good day x x x

Thanks everyone

I just had to take Pip to the Childrens ward for a blood test, he was a very good boy and it wasnt as bad as I feared. They gave him a sticker for being a good boy. I popped him in to say hello to my Grandad and he gave Pap Pap his bravery sticker. Soooooooooooooooooooooooooo cute x x

How adorable, bless him.
Hope Pip and grandad are well.

Hi Y`all!

Well I have come back from the most wonderful holiday at Parkdean Warmwell and I couldnt recommend it enough. Lots for Pip to do, really lovely wooden lodges, deers and squirrels running round, lots to do in the surrounding area too. Will definately go back.

On the way home however our car literally blew up....big bag and puff of smoke! :eek: Limped it home to sunny Northampton and it turns out the powersteering pump blew. Garage quoted us £290, £80 of that labour. My dad is able to get parts for less than halfprice so have ordered from him only trouble is they are not in stock. OH works 40 miles away and was having to have unpaid leave so we have hired a car through his company for £18 a day, still leaves us in profit given the mahooosive discounts on the parts.:T
Electric and gas card meters appear to be haemoraging cash since we returned. My phone has stopped working, luckily under contract warranty still. Pips nursery has hand, foot and mouth.....all go here!!!!!!:rotfl::rotfl:

Now I have to ask your opinion to see if i am just being a fussy mummy.
Went to pick Pip up from nursery today and was about half hour early. I walked in to find him playing in total darkness while a member of staff tried to get another child to sleep. Nobody else around in his "class" just him and this other child and the one staff? As soon as I went near him I could smell that he had pooped, she clearly was on her own so I left him until I got home to change. When I did it was evident he had been like that for quite some time. Rang and complained and when the staff member was questioned she said she didnt know he had done it. Am I being fusssy to find this not really acceptable? I felt so sorry for the poor little chap to be `playing` in silence and darkness and covered in poop.:( What do you all think?
