twinparents07's joint diary 'doing it together'!!

Have had a fabulously chilled Christmas and haven't been crazily excessive in any way.
I lost 3.5lbs at WW on Tuesday but not sure next week will go as well due to me drinking far too much last night and having the munchies all day today - oops!
Have gone slightly wild in Travelodge sale this morning and have 5 nights away booked for next 6 months to York, Liverpool, Scarborough and Keswick - all came to about £70 so not bad. Last year we did 2 nights in Preston travelodge, which was horrific for us but the kids thought it was amazing so so long as it isn't that bad we'll be happy!
Have paid about £400 off my Virgin card this week but not feeling very poor for the month ahead. January is also a 4 week nursery month so we need to be cautious.
DH and I got Debenhams vouchers for Christmas, which we swapped with the kids for cash and put that and my £40 amazon vouchers from surveys to get a groovy new gaggia coffee machine.

The kids have been utterly spoilt and we need a new house just to store all their toys!

we have listed the kids Peppa Pig toys on ebay as they don't play with them anymore so hopefully they will sell and spur us on to list more stuff!

Another day, another PAD!
I am still waiting for the silly cheque that was allegedly posted on the 16th December - so unimpressed.
The Peppa Pig stuff on ebay still has 3 days left and is currently on £10.50 so we are really pleased with that.

I need to go for a run today but am tired and unmotivated so am faffing with a training schedule rather than actually doing any exercise.

We have started a new diary to get our bottoms back in gear so bye, bye old diary and here is the new motivated one!
