To remind myself how far I've come - my debt diary. - SOA added

Well, DD didn't come back with too much junk from the fair - a frisbee set, a decent packaged soap that she's giving to my mum, a face care product that she's giving to my sister (if only I could sort my presents so easily!) and a lucky dip spinner that broke about 10 minutes after she started plyaing with it.

DS bought an ice cream and put the rest of the money in his money box!

Done most of what I planned for today

• hoovered and washed all downstairs floors to try and get rid of the all pervading glitter
• all washing and ironing done and put away
• boxes swapped on wardrobe and old cardboard boxes dismantled and put in recycling box
• matchbox advent calendar almost finished and glue drying
• DD and I watched our first christmas film on Sky (it was rubbish but never mind). We bought a winter air freshener at the weekend - one of those plug in ones that changes its scent - and the three smells really do smell Christmassy - making me want to bake gingerbread and Christmas cakes!
• Oh and I had my first mince pie of the year, even though it's not December yet. *looks shifty* OK, I had my second mince pie too - one for me, one for the baby!

I'm pretty sure that the baby will really appreciate the mince pie. He might even like seconds.....

Choco - Ive been having a sneaky cooplands mince pie every day with my lunch for the past fortnight - delish!

Mmmm, mince pies...
But only if they're the posh ones with the icing!
Maybe my baby is missing out on some vital nutrients - better get some in!

Oh no, I don't like the ones with the icing. To be honest I don't care what the outer is like as long as they are generous with the mincemeat. Was even considering making some myself this year, don't know what came over me there - think it's the air freshener!!

Had a grotty night's sleep, lots of tossing and turning, and lots of turbulent dreams when I did sleep including a slightly rude one involving Craig Charles which was a little bit of a surprise!

Consequently, I feel a bit tired and headachey this morning. Just made tea and porridge - think will have to ease gently into the day (Though must remember to phone window and door company about back door lock.)

Ditto with the poor night's sleep, but most of them are like that at the moment - a result of having a boy that wants to play football with my bladder all night! Never mind, too much to get done today to worry about it - I'll probably just pass out when we get to Dublin which will at least mean we don't spend a fortune!

I know pregnancy can do strange things to you, but Craig Charles????????!

That's what I bloomin' well thought! Luckily there was no nudity but a fair bit of lewd conversation! I bet I blush when watching Corrie tonight!

Hope you had a good weekend, sounds like you have got loads done. you always seem so organised, do you want to come to mine and organise me?

You really have to post pics of the advent callenders would love to see them finished.

Sorry you had a rough nights sleep, not to sure about the craig charles dream, maybe you should check if you have a temperature!

Lol, I'm really not that organised at all, look at the amount of time I spend procrastinating on here!

The flylady thread on the OS board helps me though; once I've posted what I plan to do I feel as if I have to do it. Don't know why, it's not as if anyone's going to come after me if I don't!

The Craig Charles dream . Not that I mind him, but given the choice I could have some up with a hundred people I would have preferred to exchange smutty chat with!

I guess there would be worse dreams than graig charles.

I always feel i have to do the things i say i will on here, i know that if i dont nobody would know the difference but i still feel compelled to. i guess thats the reason this site is so helpful to so many people.
