    Woohoooooooo just had a call from the garage... £65 what a bl00dy bargain :j!!! The brakes had an advisory on so ive asked him to sort them out as we have a big trip coming up and they would have needed changing within a few months anyway. So £140 all in means I am £60 under budget which can go towards the holiday.

    Hi lizalloareds thanks for popping by. This is the recipe, I dont use the stock though as I find it too watery and im not a fan of bones in things so I use pork steaks!!:

    http://ginodacampo.blogspot.co.uk/2012/07/gino-dacampo-sticky-ribs-with-corn-on.html

    2 racks of pork ribs - make sure they are meaty!
    2 tbsp olive oil
    5 tbsp honey
    2 tbsp dark soy sauce
    2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
    4 tbsp tomato ketchup
    8 garlic cloves, crushed in their skins
    Sea salt and ground black pepper
    100 ml stock

    Hope you like it xx

    Morning Diary,

    Thanks for all popping by with congratulations on the car and well wishes ha!! I dont feel as sick today but ive obviously got a touch of something as my tummy doesnt feel right. Ive not been sick or anything though thank god!

    So Tuesday! DH has gone off to work away for a few days so thats me getting away with easy meals for a few days.
    Have got a busy few days actually, ive got DD1 in the drs tonight re her skin, tomorrow theres an open day for DD1 and Thursday theres an open day for DD2. All this around working, house etc, il be shattered by the time he comes back.

    I received an 0cado 15% off voucher yesterday so I did a comparable shop to the Mr T's one coming Thursday and it was miles more expensive so I gave it away to my friend on fbk!

    In other news my other ebayer paid up last night so il be off to the post office with the another envelope later today.

    Think thats all from me. Happy Tuesday everyone! xx

    Morning Diary,

    Feeling very fed up today :(. Dont know what is wrong with me, I think its work as ive been feeling down about it since last night! I know I should feel lucky ive got a job but im not appreciating it at the moment! The pros really outweigh the cons but more and more I drive to work seeing other mums walking back home and I think what must it be like to just go home, get your house tidy, tea prepped etc! Sounds really pathetic but I think it all the time! Id actually probably hate to do that day in day out but you always think the grass is greener dont you!

    So all the above is probably because im tired aswell! DH is away so I sometimes dont sleep well and last night I kept waking up with leg ache last night. Then DD2 came in at 5.50 :eek:! The upside is my bedding out on the line, ironing up to date and hoovering done! At least I can just flake tonight when I get in.

    Think thats all from me. 2 days til payday :j and working from home this afternoon and tomorrow :j xx
