    Back from London, had a great day but am very tired tonight. Dad has gone into respite today for a week and was in floods of tears when mum left him there. I will take ds to visit him tomorrow after school, then I have WW and then take ds to mums for another sleepover.
    Today has been another nsd too :D

    Another 1lb off at WW tonight :j :j Am finally edging nearer to the stone mark, has taken ages but then I don't really feel as though I'm on a diet as I am taking it slow and steady, so all is good I guess :D

    Another low spend day today, just £3 on some lunch. Went to visit Dad tonight after school, he was totally away with the fairies but seemed fairly content in the home this time. Waiting now for the hot water to heat up so I can have my bath and get ready for my last trek of the week to London ;) Today has been very hectic getting stuff ready for the trip, it has all mainly fallen to me and one other member of staff but I think we're finally sorted :)

    your EX is serioulsy taking the p isn't he. I am glad you told him where to get off. Let us know how it goes asking EX to only see DS once a month.

    Just lucky you don't totally depend on the money
    very annoying for you
