Morning Diary,
Really not feeling too cracking today. Left work at 4.30pm yesterday as I felt sick and was in bed same time as the girls as I just didnt feel right. I cant quite put my finger on what it is, I feel a bit sick and achey but not any full on symptoms if you know what I mean! Im on my own in the office but may leave early if I dont pick up. Bleurgh!
Gave out DD's party invites today and got 2 comments which p!ssed me off about siblings not being invited as due to space we can only have set numbers. They might have been joking but it winds me up why people cant keep their bl00dy mouths shut! Instead of saying to DD oh well youve got to invite so and so and youve got to invite them ive let her decide this year. After all it is her bleeding party! If they dont like it they dont have to come.. simple as!
Dont think ive anything else to report anyway! Hope everyones ok xxMummytogirls x0 -

Morning,
I know a few women from my childrens school, who have 3 or more children, and i often feel guilty if my DD just invites 1 round, but I brave it out as you can't have all of them just because they are siblings. They need to learn that sometimes one has a party invite and the others don't. Tough....it usually evens out over the year.
Ignore them MummytoGirls, silly women.:rotfl::T
Hope you are feeling better today. xx0 -
Hi mummy,
Totally agree with the other posts about the party invites, and like you say its your DD's party so she can invite who she likes.

Evening Diary,
Just popping in for a quick catch up!
Thanks for all your responses re DD's party, I know your all right I just need to ignore them! Theres always one though isnt there!!
So im so determined to get rid of this debt now and I think if everything goes to plan we can have it paid off in 21 months which takes us to end August 2014.
I am going to add the number of months into my signature as Alice your car payments have whizzed by so im hoping this does too.
I will have £800 paid off my 2 lowest debts by end of March 13.
These are:
Very - £190 - to be paid in full by end Jan 13
Mothercard - £580 - to be paid in full by end Mar 13
Keep posted for me jumping for joy!!
So today I came home at 2.30pm to pick the kids up, still had to work at home but it feels nicer knowing tea is cooking away and working sat in your kitchen! I made a roast chicken and it was gorgeous... followed by golden syrup cake and custard.
Then I took the girls to the coop to buy a few little presents for their teachers and we posted all the cards whilst we were out. Feels good knowing they are not sat on top of the dresser any longer!
Ive sorted some washing out since and amended my food order for Saturday. Once DD's asleep I just need to pop upstairs and wrap about 3 more presents then all done.
Cant believe Christmas is next week it just doesnt feel like it at all!
Tomorrow im working at home in the morning and picking DD up from nursery as MIL is on holiday. Then I will go into the office for the afternoon and my mum will have DD.
Think thats all from me! Roll on 4pm tomorrow :T xxMummytogirls x0 -
I also wanted to mention that by end March we will be in the £11k's :j :beer: xxMummytogirls x0

Just updated my debt figures using my statements and weve now paid off into the 46%'s!
Ive also done my meter readings but the scottish power site seems down so I cant enter them. Im actually dreading entering them and seeing how much weve used hahaha!!!!

Morning Diary,
Not long got up, not feeling so good but cant work out if its because im not well or whether ive slept funny as my shoulders, neck and arms are killing.
Thank you for your response David, I did manage to log on and input the readings.
Were using about £30 a week at the moment which is quite a lot considering its not actually too cold for the time of year. Now £45 i credit... that credit really is being eaten up fast :eek:!
So I finished at work yesterday, bought a bottle of wine on the way home and chilled out with only 1 glass of the wine, some pringles and text Santa. Fell asleep just after 10 so didnt see the last hour.
DD2 came in the bedroom at 2pm covering in sick, we got her cleaned up and back to bed and shes ok this morning thank god. She had been at my mums yesterday and she does let her eat basically what she wants, so I wouldnt put it past all the sweets/choc she will have eaten there.
Today DH has got to pop down to work for something or other and the kids are whinging to go out, but the weather is pants. So hes going to take them with him! I think he may regret it when they start arguing.
Mr T's are bringing my shopping between 12-1.
DH is going out mid afternoon so I will drop him off and since im out pick up any final final bits we need or dont get delivered.
I also need to get my mum her onesie, just wish she would have asked me the other week instead of less than a week before Christmas.
Thats more or less it from me. Il probably be back later when DH is out!! xxMummytogirls x0
