Hi mummy, parcel posted, should get it thurs/fri.

mummy, please don't be down about the bad things - lifei s sent to try us, and if it was all plain sailing you'd be expecting a MASSIVE upset (I'm thinking along the lines of earthquake/flood or the plague here) Just know that you can get things back down, but it's always a baby step forward and a HUGE leap back, but you WILL get there! *hugs*

Hi, LL thanks for poping onto my diray
Pennies thank you very much
Elfen - thanks for your post. I'm much happier now then i was - I def have other half onside now so thats good. Also know that things could be much worse. We have had such bad times before and thats what kind of started our debt. We had to move suddenly and had to buy a new house and then was unhappy so ended up doing what lots of other do and spend to try and make us happy!! So im sooo glad we are no longer where we was years ago - but just wish there wasnt this little reminder of when times were horrible. We are now happy and over the bad things (as much as you can be) and have our lovely children so we know we can handle all these things that are sent to try us! Just going to take a little longer to clear all the debt
Sorry ended up going on a little there

It's ok mummy, if you need to waffle, waffle away! Am used to my mum doing it and I know how cathartic it can be (reminded me to phone my mum after 7 for a free call to see how her and me dad are) At least now you're happy, so you won't have to deal with the crappyness anymore

hi

just spotted your diary, gosh you do have your hands full at the moment but honestly you really you seem to be coping really well. I love your 100 day list, I am a bit list obsessive so I really should do one of these to keep me motivated.

I had 3 dd's in 4 1/2 years but then the 4th didn't arrive for another 10 years! but I well remember the squabbles dd1 always liked to be in control which was ok while dd2 was little but then as she got older she would strongly object to being told what to do.

Fingers crossed that your boiler keeps going during the winter, my car is due its mot and tax at the end of august and I know it needs new tyres and the handbrake sorting already so really hoping that it won't need much more than that. I still owe my mum and dad for last years MOT costs.

Thank goodness your dhs money went in in time

I will be subscribing

Hello loopylouc thanks for reading and subscribing - will be good to hear from you aswell I hope the MOT doesnt need anything else to pass. Always worries isnt there My dd1 always wants to be in control and boss her sisters around! Also wants to be the loving big sister/mum to ds always wanting to make him smile and give him things.
elfen im good at waffling:p Hope your mum and dad are ok when you call.

Have had a good day today at the park. Kids loved it and was a free day out Wasnt a NSD though as i had to get some dinner from the shops. Pitty i had loads of things in the freezer but i wont use them as they were all ruined Also cant get much as it wont last till the new freezer. It comes on thursday so will have to do a big shop then to build it back up...
done scratch card and checked banking - all looks good (should do for the 3rd of the mth )
Going to try a few surveys tonight and see if i can get some more points.

Will do a running total on here of all surveys and points that i have ready for christmas so i can keep a eye on where we stand.......

I have had a good few days and feel a lot better on the whole debt front
Paid a extra £50 of the cc today - not loads but its a overpayment and we havent managed one for a long time :j:j
Have sold a few nappies that we are not getting on with - so ive made a little back from them. Paid for some more inserts that i needed so do not have to wash till we have a full load which will save some pennies aswell. The rest might have to go on a new sling as i really want a structured one as DS will soon be to heavy for the one we have at the moe.
Had a few nsd this week and still have a little left from our weekly budget - which ill save towards the school shoes ill have to get.
Have the new freezer
Things i put on ebay didnt sell One top im now going to save for step dads bday or xmas and will relist the rest on a lower start price and hope they sell this time........
Anyway btter go and we are ment to be having a 'date night' again

Glad you got the battery fixed - i cant live without my computer

Have been shopping today and spent a fair bit But i have now got a nice full fridge and freezer. Had to get a few extra bits to help fill the freezer up a little as didnt have things like frozen veg and such.... Brought a few pots of single cream reduced to 11p with the thinking i could freeze it and use it when i need....but now im not sure if cream is ok to freeze???

Other then the shop its been a nsd Tomorrow we are going to the inlaws as its mil bday. Giving her some vouchers that we have as present as thats what she wants

scratchcard done - 10p and banking is all fine
