    Afternoon :hello:

    Woke up early this morning :mad: so jumped in the shower, took a survey on PA (this has been terribly slow of late) then bleached the bathroom within a inch of its life :rotfl: all before anyone else got up this morning :T

    Started work at 8am then set up playgroup 16 kids attended :T came home and fed the munchkins their lunch......they are all finished and building dens right now :rotfl:

    I've nearly collected all my avon orders :T once I've collected them I'll have £100 to send towards the Florida tickets which means I'll be so close to paying off £2k so far as I've paid off £1892.12 I'm determined to not put this on the credit card :T I really am

    I've booked the van in for it's park and ride from the airport will cost £80 but we pay that in cash on arrival :D and I've printed my esta visas so I'm getting organised

    Need hubby to get the suitcases down from the loft as Xander is away to London for 4 days with the school tomorrow so need to pack his stuff tonight and hubby is taking him to get his hair cut after school

    Sold a smart trike someone is collecting it today for £25 :T so I'll just use that money for hair cut and his snacks for this bus saves it coming out of my bank account and more space in the garage :T

    Is it wrong I want to start packing for holiday as all the stuff is piling up in the room :rotfl: I'm getting a tad excited I think.....right off to drop kids off at nursery and pay my avon invoice xx

    Cracked my tin open again and we have £270 in their plus some change so I've bagged up the £270 and will head to the bank tomorrow morning before toddlers and get it paid into my account and then I'll put it on my revolt card........once I've exchanged it we will have $1850 spending money :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: omg that's an amazing amount from selling stuff :T

    Still got a couple of things on fb selling pages hoping they sell as well as it would cover the parking

    I'm all chuffed with our spending money

    Once the park tickets are paid off hopefully by the 6th June it's all hands on deck to save save save more spending money as I don't want to put anything on the credit cards when we are out there if I can help it :D
