Sounds daft, but for the 1st time, I feel I'm getting somewhere, this lightbulb seems to be staying on, and having this diary, more to babble on, but as its in black and white its a reminder to get there.
had an emergency visit upto Game 2ngt, they've got some ds and wii games on buy one get one free, so told dad they were going on his credit card!! not very mse, but it wasn't on mine, so thats one good thing!!
Just managed to get the theory done, so hit the assisgnment later, get some sleep 1st, then got to 11pm, if its not brilliant, I've tried.
xxxx rip dad... we had our ups and downs but we’re always be family xx0 -
Just had some good news, I do the Postal survey, and had an email to say I've just won £10 in their daily draw.
Hopefully thats a good omen, as I've got my OU assisgnment to start today and finish 2mor by lunchtime xxxx rip dad... we had our ups and downs but we’re always be family xx0 -

Got my OU assisgment done, - with about 15 mins spare!
Didn't go to the tutorial, the weather was freezing fog, again, there was accidents yesterday on the route, so didn't risk it.
Did well this afternoon with the xmas pta fayre, I did my own table top, didn't have to pay! as poor dad had been borrowed for 10mins to cover the hoola store, 2 hrs later he was still there. I made £65... £5 was dds as sold a nail kit, very nice and gave dad £15 for coming with me, so the £40 going up for a treat.
Paid another £100 off debts, so sig looking good, got all Dec statements, started putting the figures on, then realised I've done balance transfers so there show in Jans statements so that give me a better idea, but as they say new year new start.
Taking dd + her friend to the same place as last week, its a georgian xmas, and we've got free entry tickets.
Fun week, got hairdressers, dentist, foot woman, dd's got her school play Mon, shes a narrator dressed as a scarecrow, then her school party wed, I'm on toilet duty, making sure the older kids don't stay in to long doing their make up!
Give u a laugh, got over £400 worth of donated goods / passes etc for the xmas fete, and I won one of the prizes, a family pass to a local attraction, there was people moaning that we won! I'd paid my money, most prob they never won.
The best Telford Ice Rink sent some 2 4 1 vouchers, and a old lady of 70 won them!!xxx rip dad... we had our ups and downs but we’re always be family xx0 -
Ahhh she may give them to her grandkids.
Sounds really busy for you the next week.
Glad you managed your assignment and that your figures are looking good.0 -
Had a really good day, dd and her friend loved it, we went round the mansion, and every room had got a guide in there telling about the history, walked into the drawing room, the wall was full of pictures, dd had to spot the one with the bare bum!!
The entrance was free, saved us £20, took them to see father christmas, we queued for an hr!! they didn't moan, we were given sweets and they had a bloke doing character pics, quick scribble, was free, F.C. was £3.50, really good value, we were in there for 15 mins, he really chatted to them, dd asked could he return the whisky glass he took last yr!! (we'd washed it up!!) he didn't know where to look!!
They had a book each.
Then they did some salt dough angels, and then found the craft room, I have never seen so much glue, glitter, god help who had to clear it up.....
DD was telling her friend about taxi's grandson, and the dog of many colours he painted!!
We were on our way out, and the kids wanted a ride on the golf buggy, (posh longer one), said no as I couldn't walk back up, the bloke was so sweet, he said don't worry, jump in, I'll do a round trip.
Dad picked us up, so went to the pub (found a voucher for 2 free adult meals, 2 kids meals), didn't come to yesterdays post... too late...... so just the drinks.
Had 2 very shattered children, hopefully there both sleep well.
Countdown to the fun week!! xxxx rip dad... we had our ups and downs but we’re always be family xx0 -
Busy couple of days, none on the debt front!
DD had her school play yesterday, she was one of the narraters, it was good to see, there was me with a tear in my eye/
Been wrapping xmas prezzies, coz I can't lift, and a lot of the stuff been yammed in the shed and the loft, he helped by getting them down.... then got them mussled up. I had them orgainsed to ours, everyones main preezies, (they had their own bag), then the extras in the front...... he muddled them up, by 9pm tonight, gave up, the frontroom now looks like Santas Grotto.
Got off ok at the dentist, a minor chip in a tooth, ddn't even know I'd broke it, dd got told her teeth looking gd, and the wobbly one should come out soon.
Had haircuts, off Fri to another hair dressers for highlights....need a treat.
Got my assisgment back from OU 72%, and I'd lost the plot, the last 200 words I just babbled....
Looking forward to Jan, good to get a grip on the finanices, know better whats going where, and how the balance transfers go.
Going to have a hunt for my 40 list and see what else I can do.
Hope everyone ok xxxx rip dad... we had our ups and downs but we’re always be family xx0 -
Its a flying visit, as just had to register my post, been wrapping xmas orezzies since 10am, bar 3 hrs..... still not finished.... dd had her school disco, I was on toilet duty, ( looking a right idiot on a seat outside the loo, apparently if there not checked thegirls spend to long doing their make up... I had no probs, think I scared them off.. one of her teachers popped by, sh'd just come out of the hall, apparently dd was doijng all the moves, and singing, she said she looked she should be on stage, apparently she was word perfect and dance move perfect.
Quick flick through emails to see if anything mega urgent, and there was an email off my old tutor, sending congratulations I'd passed the course......so exicted.

Glad it got there safe, we honestly can't thank you enuf for everything, in all honestly we were really dreading going to Blackpool as it was the 1st holiday without Whisky, and although we'd choosen Bailey he was to young to leave, and you and my little mate really made the hol for us.
Don't worry theres no shower cap!!!!
DD - shes a little star, thou gave us a fright, she came out in a rash, had visions it was measles, mad visit Wed to gp, he didn't know what it was - diagnosed it as a virus, but said the rash was an allergy crossed with eczema, and change to ring back...... as you know nothing goes simply..... came home from school yesterday, covered head to toe, rang the docs, said pop her up to day, its eczema, she's got to have some stronger cream....
Finally got the prezzies wrapped, the front room looks like Santas grotto, just to start the delievering.....
Got the foodie gifts to do 2mor, then mums, dads, dds and mine to do..... off for lunch 2mor with my mate, so leaving instructions for mum what to wrap.
