    Afternoon all...just grabbing 5 mins peace at home (don't think ive ever been in this house on my own until today) before I go and pick B up from school....I really really really hope she's had a good day.

    I have a long list
    1) To be a primary school teacher
    2) To own my own home
    3) To have a car that is reliable (if there is such a thing!)
    4) Earn enough money that I can finally pay off my student loan (my net monthly earnings have to be £2200, well under that amount I don't have to pay it back so haven't)
    5) To have a happy, healthy family
    6) For my sister and mum to get back to having a good relationship
    7) To be happy with my body
    8) To spend more quality time doing things with DD that she wants to do rather than things that I want to do with her
    9) Have a lovely holiday abroad with all my family
    10) See all my friends more regularly
    11) Get married again one day ;)
    12) stay debt freee
    13) Get some savings together for a rainy day
    14) stop worrying what other people think
    15) stop coverting other peoples lives and belongings



    I'll stop now before I get too carried away lol

    Sally, your list is admirable but most of it is your hopes for other people, not yourself!!!

    I wanted my mum and my sister to get on better for years. It has happened - but it has taken 30 years....

    I'm back and knackered :) I think i've run up and down the stairs about ten times :) taking various things up, that were on the dining room table.

    stew is in the slow cooker, and my house is starting to resemble a home not a pigsty.

    need to rest now though, my back has started to play havock and my hip has started to give me jip :(, wish i could have got a bit more done.

    Come on pics please... Bet she is swamped by her uniform. So exciting, sit back and watch her change overnight... Although you know that already having done it 3 times before!
