    Good luck to DD, hope she wins some more trophies. It's lovely that she's so into her dancing and is so good at it. You can't do anything other than support her despite the expense. You never now she might become professional and be able to treat you one day :) One of my friends supported her son with his comedy when he was young and it paid off, he's famous now, so you never know.

    Afternoon Diary,

    Signing back in after a few days of busyness!

    So DD did well in her competition and came 3rd in one of her dances. She brought home 1 out of 2 trophies :T

    Yesterday was NSD9 :T

    Today is DH's payday :beer: and has been a spend day - £45 in the farmshop. For this I got:
    20 chicken breasts
    2 whole chickens
    4 chilli burgers
    10 sausages
    10 rashers of bacon
    15 eggs
    2 cheese and onion pastys (DH and DD's choice for bonfire night!)
    12 bread rolls
    I had budgeted £30 but then the 2 chickens were too much of a good off to miss up on! That was £6 extra so only an extra £10 :rotfl:
    Think I've got £160 left in my grocery account for the next 3 weeks.

    Its DD's birthday this weekend so thats another busy one!!

    Thanks HI and SA. SA I agree you have to get behind them. It is nice that we can afford it now as the same couldn't have been said for a few years ago! Obviously it would be nice to get debt free quicker but something always comes up anyway!!!

    Happy Halloween to those who celebrate ha xx

    Have a good evening :)

    It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.

    Evening Diary,

    Its really coming cold now.. we are still without the heating though :) it only seems to drop colder when the kids are in bed and I don't like the heating being on when theyre in bed!! Im sure it will be switched on the odd time soon though.

    So today has been a spend day having my eyebrows waxed. Also spent in the coop for work but will be claiming this back so not counting.

    Haven't really got much to report at all! xx

  • Life can't be exciting every day, I guess. I know mine is often very uneventful :)
