  • Hi, just little old me (41 today) checking in from my parents, going home tomorrow after breakfast, will be nice to get back to my computer, been using my dad's computer.

    CMD - came on to see if there was any news, hope you have an easy/quick labour like your cousin.

    Will be back tomorrow. Can't believe I am officially 41 now.

  • Thanks for all the birthday wishes, the kids had a good time, my mum blew up balloons and did a pass the parcel game for the 3 of them just with little sweets in, we had jelly and ice cream and birthday cake.

    We are back home now, back to the school run tomorrow, luckily OH is off for two days so he can watch DD3 while I take the other 2 to school, my dad is staying over tonight too and is getting the coach back tomorrow, they don't like me driving on my own with the 3 kids as they argue a lot, so my dad comes up by coach and drives up with me and then comes back with me and gets the coach back. Normally they just take DD1 and DD2 in the holidays but I went too this time with DD3.

    Got to seriously start debt busting now, have got my Asda credit card so can activate it tomorrow and do some balance transfers, just got to work out which one(s) to transfer.

  • Thanks CMD

    My week was lovely, was nice having my dinners cooked and having help with the kids, DD3 had quite a few tantrums. We went to Weymouth for the afternoon one day which was nice, I LOVE Weymouth and would love to live there, maybe one day. DD3 loved the fairground rides, the little cars/buses that go round and also the Carousel, I was more scared than she was.

    How are you? No sign of baby yet then?
