Or simply a night without:-
a trip to A&E only to get there to find everything is fine (after organising emergency childcare and leaving said children in tears) and also paying £5 for the car park without even going anywhere.
the dog chewing the carpet/rug, eating food meant for others off the side
the bath overflowing because some k**bhead left it running
the kids moaning/whining/whinging about the fact that they have to go to bed but can't find it due to the damn amount of toys on said bed/floor/landing despite claiming it was tidy when they left it :wall:
me screaming at some moving object for being useless/untidy/naughty...
Aaaaaaarggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
What a difference a few hours make - I may check myself into a hospice just for a break.....
Do you live in my house ? The similarities are uncanny:)

Afternoon all - sat with cup of tea and far too many chocolate chip cookies pretending to work whilst watching Married Single Other.
NSD didn't work today - had to spent £7.20 on a prescription :eek::eek::eek: since when did it cost that much??? Then an average Dr's appointment threw u something "abnormal" up and referred meAs we have private health care she advised me to use that and get in as soon as possible
. Ridiculous thing was that my first thought was, "well that's £100 down the drain then!" So have made appointment, will have to write a cheque for £100 to be seen sooner and add to the already present stress of finding that money :mad: Yet another amount to add to the delightful spreadsheet.
Apart from that, still super productive on Ebay, bit sick of parcelling items up buy hey ho that is the life of an ebay queen.
So not in the bestest of moods but not brooding. Have another money making idea relating to writing and my debt journey but not sure whether it is a good/viable idea or not - will have to give it some thought!

When on a DF journey money is always at the forefront of our minds
DH has a couple of health problems and I would give my right arm for private health insurance and £100 bill!!! He is on the waiting list for an operation at the moment and it's 18 weeks, we are on week 4! :j
