The Ultimate Incentive to have an amazing 2010.

Yeah, especially as our holidays run from Aug-July so we'd be taking a lot out of our quota all at once and we wouldn't be able to take much time off this year after July. This way, if we wait until September for Florida, we can spread our holiday time out over 2 'year' periods. I also like the idea of coming back from one holiday to know that I've got another one to look forward to!

Oh, and to make up for posting so many horrificly bright dresses, here's a nice white dress!

Sorry, was having a codiene induced nap...

Sounds like a great plan Birdie. Plus then you get two fab holidays not just one! Maybe its 'off' season or in the run up to it in April? Maldives most expensive time of year is Jan-Feb time, and cheapest in June-July - which is when most British people like to take their holidays.

Listed 6 things in turbolister today. Feeling chuffed with myself, thats 3 things crossed off the list today. NIM REALLY needs to do some assignment tonight, so I should be able to list some more things or maybe do some sewing homework if I get comfortable.

Weighed in this morning. No weight loss (no suprise, I can hardly move!) but at least no gain which is only down to watching what I eat. Still a solid 140lbs. Will be good to get to a new second number.

Your skin's going to be fabulous if all you're doing is taking naps! I'm jealous!

Hehe, I love how he was writing on here last night saying he was pretending to do his work, I was thinking "You know she's going to be reading this don't you?"!

I wish, its appauling at the moment. I think all the nasties I'm putting in my body are destroying it.

I was reading over his shoulder. He doesn't actually really pretend to be working when hes not, he just giggles! He is terrible, then he gets REALLY stroppy that there is so much needing to be done and I just stay quiet to keep from saying 'its not like it snuck up on you! Now stop whinging and get on with it'!

LOL! I can't really laugh at him though because I'm the worst for putting off work. The reason why I haven't looked into doing OU is because I know that I'll be useless at sitting down and doing the assignments. I can probably count on one hand the number of times I did homework before the night/morning before it had to be handed in at school/college! I loved A Level Business Studies because we never had to hand homework in, we just discussed it in class so I finished it as we went along! :rolleyes:

I'm the same Birdie and I'm like that with work too - I just don't seem to have the inclination to do something until it's urgent!

Birdie you must be well excited about Dominican now. 2 great holidays sound better than one as well! I also think sometimes if it's not easy to travel from one part of a holiday to another it can be a bit tedious, so good to split them up.

My to do list has 35 things on it, which is a bit ming, but I have been working really hard to catch up with all this life admin and college work that's been avalanching lately. Tonight I am going to put on 80s Madonna full volume on Spotify and do the housework.

OMG I am so jealous about holidays all this talk of luxury Caribbean breaks. Can we all come to your wedding Birdie? LOL

Birdie85

Of course you can come! I ain't paying though!

I'm loving your use of the word 'ming'! Good luck with the to do list!

I'm off to yoga tonight, I hope I don't lose my balance and fall over in front of everyone!

Where is everyone? I don't want to do a Poolie and sit here talking to myself!

I've been looking into the Dominican for next year and wierdly it costs less to go the week just before the school holidays in April than if we go on the date that we were planning to go in February, which might work out better for us because we could go on the 5th (they only fly on Tuesdays annoyingly), our teacher friends could come out on the 12th, we could get married on the 15th (ish!), then we could all go home on the 19th so teachers don't have to miss any school. Hmm, sounds like a plan. Will have to check it out at the travel agents on Saturday! We're not going to Forida directly from Weddingmoon any more, we think we'll have 10 days/2 weeks in Florida later in the year, we'll get a late deal in either May/June or September to miss the school holidays and get the nice weather and it'll give us a little more time to fill up the coffers!

That sounds like a good plan

I'm totally loving the sound of all these fantastic weddings and honeymoons (and just a teensy bit jealous too )!
