Happy Monday morning everyone, woke up early and have made the sandwiches etc. Washing in and everyone is just about getting themselves sorted. I need a cuppa now.
Todays plans are childminding so busy day for me ahead me thinks. Have a good day everyone.

Today is very cold but lovely sunshine. I have the cold from hell so dont feel much up to enjoying it. Sinus's all blocked etc. I went to bed early last night then was awake at silly oclock 2AM:eek: thinking about paying off loans early etc and how much can I pay next month!!!! Think Im going mad slowly. MSE is so addictive and wish I'd begun 10 yrs ago, imagine how well off we'd be now, god thats depressing!
Onward and Upward hope to pay some more off the dreaded visa tomorrow and cant wait to see the back of it now. No chidminding till next Fri so no spare cash but will add up the change bottle it all helps.
Hope weather is being kind to you all too.

I know what you mean about wishing you'd discovered mse ages ago - I'd be in *such* a different position if I had. OTOH, if I hadn't discovered it when I did, I'd be in a much worse position right now....

turfy6

Your dead right KC thats so positive yes we'd be so much worse off, must be this cold puddling my brain!! Thank goodness for Martin and all you wonderful DFW's long may we continue to our goals.:beer:

:beer: Absolutely - but the cold from hell can get in the way of even mse, so take care of yourself. You were saying about decluttering tomorrow with the offspring around - its good cos they can take responsibility for their stuff, but don't overdo it :kisses3:

Got loads of sorting out done yesterday and began putting photo's in some kind of order. Kids got rid of loads of babyish books will take them to the charity shop.

DD and I have just got back from the doctors she had a pain in her chest and I was praying it wasnt the dreaded bronchitis coming back but it seems its a pulled muscle and perhaps the start of a cold. (probably caught it from me) so she's home weve had some yummy tomato soup and the fire is lit, so nice and cosy.

Made another payment of barclaycard and really want one more to get it below £2000 have to make that by monday to get it logged intime for the statement, so fingers crossed.

Weekend plans include swimming if my cold feels better, although I feel good day. Diet going ok but could be better, still sticking to it with the odd lapse.:j
Hope everyone is keeping warm.

Swimming never happened on the weekend! DH has now got my cold which of course is much worse than mine;) so we gave the swimming a miss for this week.
MS wise going ok and think I WILL be below the £2000 mark with barclaycard just waiting for the 23rd to update my sig :T
Kids are off two older ones all week but little fella only has 2 days shame!
DD is off to the boyfriends who has a birthday so lots of teenagers going over there today.
We have a first birthday party tomorrow for our friends little girl so jelly and ice cream etc:T Not good for the diet, really need some chocolate now any kind Im not fussy at this stage.:rotfl:

A light dusting of the white stuff this morning, but the sun is shining so it all looks very pretty. Had my porridge and back on the diet after a bit of a slump yesterday ( had some toffiffe thingies that had to be eaten) you know how it is, at least theyre gone now so no more temptation.
Have to call to the bank today pay in some loose change and a cheque for OH have done the banking and no surprises there.
Off to the 1st birthday party this afternoon, really looking forward to that they are always kind of special IYKWIM.
Have a good day everyone hope the sun is shining with you too:j

Oh I *so* know how it is on the "had to be eaten" front. I was terribly proud of myself yesterday - I added some snickers bar to my Tesco order thats due to be delivered today, and later went back online to cancel them!!! I've never managed to do that in my life before. Take that, Tatco!

turfy6

Thats so funny KC, think I might have added them again at this stage:rotfl: I love snickers. All the easter eggs are in the shops too oh so unfair when its the last thing our hips need!!
School for just the one this morning he's gone off all spellings learned this week. One of the teachers is a right c*w and is forever shouting at him. He only got a couple right last week and she sent a note home. I did explain it was probably my fault as I was full of cold and didnt take the time with him. Were going to show her this week and hopefully he'll do well in the test today. Some teachers just go about things so weirdly, most of the kids in his class hate her with a passion.
Plans for today include cleaning the bathroom and more decluttering, may have a sneaky look at the family tree stuff too, got an urge to spend a bit of me time today. Childminding should be back by Friday yippee some more cash.
