    Morning :hello:

    Been working since 7.30am :eek: mindee is playing away so thought I would nip on xx

    Ordered the kids passports so that's £149 away :( but hey at least they'll last 5 years :rotfl: so just need to get the forms printed off and get their photos countersigned will be getting MILs vicar to do that as he's a family friend so will attend church (not religious in the slightest but I think it's only polite to attend his service seeing as he's helping us out) on Sunday morning then I can get them posted away on Monday xx

    Abbie passed her swimming test :T shes now on the very last block if she passes it saves me £40.50 every 10 weeks no pressure on her then :rotfl: xander didn't he just needs to slow down but he's doing ever so well xx so £80 needs to be paid next week for their next block of lessons :mad:

    Need to nip into town to stock up the snack drawers as there is NOTHING. :eek: so going to mindee to the shops and I'll get him a treat plus he loves buses xx

    Got it my wages to out in the bank today as well as mil paid me £80 for the couch so that'll get transferred into the butlins fund xx doing not bad

    Got avon to do k's tonight plus drop off a big order of £40 hoping their in as this is the longest I've went before paying for the order as a whole but two customers texted to say they couldn't pay last week........so why order if u can't afford it?????

    Xander has a school disco tonight so I'm working til 5.30 tonight the need to get him ready and drop him off then do avon then pick him back up.......can I go back bed????? :rotfl:

    Ears still feeling bunged up hoping they ease up soon as their constantly throbbing xx

    Off to get ready to go out xx

    That's an awful lot for swimming lessons.......are the half hour or a full hour lessons????

    Well dropped mindee off at nursery just chilling out before starting work again but managed to get my floor in kitchen swept and steamed :T

    Spent a fortune at the shops ordered Abbie's Easter present got her a top made up that has her name on the back and says dream believe achieve on the front which is diversitys slogan hoping she'll like that £16 then nipped into BHS bought myself a pair of shoes £16 and Abbie a long sleeved top in the sales was £10 now a fiver......nipped to farmfoods got juice for me £1.80 cold meat £3 juice for Abbie for school £2.50 for 6 bottles and cheese £2 then off to homebargains where I stocked the kids snack drawer and bought some Easter arts and crafts plus kitchen roll toilet paper, deodorant for hubby and sandwich bags for £34 :eek: still a bargain though as would have cost more at the supermarket I guess xx

    Watching a climbing frame on eBay normally retails at £499 but there selling it for £130 so far thinking of using some of my college wages for that seeing as my mindees will be able to play with it too but it's mostly for baby k who doesn't have anything in the back garden at the moment xx

    Morning :hello:

    Working since 7.30am again :eek:so got up early and grabbed a quick shower before they arrived

    Also checked the bank today to see if college wages were in and they were :T so transferred £400 into my mortgage account so well on my targets to getting to £3000 by the end of May xx

    Collected money for my avon order so I can now go pay it off before I get a late payment charge :j and I have £26 commission but still have another order of £15 to get paid today........hopefully so if she does pay I'll transfer £20 into the mortgage account so that's half my commission going in there xx

    Need to go baby k is sitting at the window shouting at the cars :rotfl: need to get him dressed for playgroup xx

  • £201 for a climbing frame :eek:!!! I'm with you! They can keep it lol :rotfl:
    Yes half hour swim lessons for that price :eek: and that's the cheapest it gets round here!!! Joke isn't it!

    Hope you get all your avon sorted out. That's one of the main reasons I stopped doing it as it drove me mad chasing people (and my round was up a steep hill and ds1 was in the buggy at the time and I didn't drive!) I might try it again though if there are local rounds free when I move :) It's a good way to get exercise and get out and about meeting people xx

    You've just reminded me I need to buy another easter egg to replace the one I stole last week :o
