Thank you, def aiming for me afternoon tea!
Wrote a letter to the sports centre re DDs party, waiting to hear what their going to do. More the principal than the money. We said we'd go out Sat, and dads taking her to a funfair on Sunday, shes told him not to take his wallet with the padlock!!

You can tell DD has got her head screwed on re money, Avon lady came 2ngt, I'd only got £20 note (miracle for me - only coz mum owed it me), she hadn't got enough change, knew DD had in her pocket money purse, she charged me £1.00 to change the £20 note!

Bailey, - hes shooting up, hes made as a hatter, but a softie as well, he loves nothing better than being on his back + tickled literally top to bottom!! The vet said if you can tickle around "meat + 2 veg", if he had to be checked there he'd be use to it. Hes nearly 16 weeks. Be fun Oct were off to Devon, but be his 1st time in Travelodge, dont see much sleep that night!!

How are you, hope ur manageing to get 5 mins to urself x

Your DD sounds just like mine - we gave my Dad a lift home the other day and she told him he had to pay because it was a taxi - she wasn't impressed when I said that Grandad doesnt have to pay! They will make great business women when they are older!

Bailey sounds lovely - DD is desparate for a dog so we are going to 'adopt' one from Dogs Trust for her Christmas present - my parents did that for me with a horse from Redwings and I used to get updates and pictures so hopefully that will appease her for now! xx

Just a flying visit, all quiet at the mo, have to admit have had a couple of lazy days, Bailey slowing quiten down, but he was so funny, shot upstairs, took a running jump and landed on the, lay be him tickling his belly, the doorbell went, he lifted his head, shouted down the doors gone, I've got Bailey up here, mum pipes up it was me, when we had Whisky if he'd sneaked upstairs or doing something he shoudn't we use to ring the doorbell and he'd come running down the stairs. Bailey just sat there as if to say, you want me come and fetch me!!

No news on debt from, plodding along, up to date with this months bills, see how we look at the end of the month.

My plan for October is 10 no spend days, (away end for half term), so be good before hand. Got a full day of study 2mor, weeks work 10hrs, so split that between Fri + Mon, Tues dd bday, (that be myday off studying nxt week), then do assisgment Wed onwards thats my last one, then its 2 weeks revision exam on 20th Oct.... Next course starts the 14th, dont think going to get chance to start it before the other one finishes. The only trouble with the next one the calender gives you a book and say allocates 5 weeks for it, whereas the B201 just doing now, goes week by week, so you know where you are.

Very weird organisation I'm absolutely brilliant at as long as its not mine! x

I'm up to date, just with the OU, got this weeks work to do, which I reckon I should be able ot do Tues + Wed, that leaves me Thurs, Fri + Sat to do the TMA, (help), then 2 weeks of revision.

Doing well as its the 1st time that we've stayed at home for DDs birthday, as previously we had issues with the ex, then his family, but touch wood, we've been clear since April last year. Although I love being in Devon, and would be there like a shot, its almost not been fair to DD, shes always had a party before hand, but last year, she wanted ot be at school for her birthday as they give the birthday child a pencil in assembly, (last yr as the teacher was aware of the circumstances) they still gave dd her pencil. I can't keep on running, I always promised myself if I could get through 18 months with no hassle then Id be in the clear, and touch wood, the last solicitors letter, and the fact that we changed home and mobile telephone numbers, his family have made no attempt to contact.
Theres part of me that feels sorry in my heart for his parents, as they wanted involvement with dd, and I had always said that if they did get in contact I wouldn't block it, but unfortunately the cotact we made blew up in my face, as everything they had been told by me, they told their other son, who then passed the info to his brother and the vicious circle started, I had to put mine + dds safety first.
So if I can get through 2mor, I can get through anything. xx

Hope your DD has a great day M21.
