    Well my body decided enough was enough and decided it didn't want to work to the point I've taken this morning off which isn't like me at all, my head feels like it's about to burst, my good ear is throbbing to the point I can hear my heartbeat :eek: and my muscles are aching :( got afterschoolers to pick up at 3pm but it's a nice day so they'll be getting fired outside

    Tried going for a nap but with my ear throbbing it was hard to go to sleep so I've just been chilling watching my programs :T

    As for the money front :rotfl: I give up :rotfl: got our holiday money all together hubby gets laid on Friday so we will get some lira for our purses and wallets and leave the rest on the card :cool:

    Saturday will be manic, we have haircuts for all, me and Abbie getting eyebrows done, Xander has his dinner to prep after passing his cooking class which I'm missing as my appointments were booked months in advance and couldn't change but he's bringing my dinner home, everyone else is having a sit down dinner with him including my gran :T

    Been that busy the suitcases are still up the loft, will get hubby to bring them down tomorrow as he's off tomorrow as it's kks prize giving and he's up for an award but he doesn't know as it's a secret :D

    Hubby dyed my hair at the weekend I'm back to being a redhead.......I did not suit being blonde but my hair feels damaged due to hairdresser bleaching it hence why my hair is getting cut but I've ordered new straighteners as mine are pull on my hair no shame to them but ordered them from very as they were reduced :T

    Hope everyone is well xx

    I'm back :hello:

    Holiday was fab, had a blip when we got there as Abbie decided that was the best time to tell us she didn't want to come on holiday so we sent her back from Turkey day 2 into our holiday, don't get me wrong I was furious at first but it was for the best for her and the rest of us went on to have a great holiday :cool: However I need to look into paying for private help for Abbie as the NHS waiting lists are atrocious so thats something I need to look into more.

    But I'm back on it now :D I've converted my holiday money back into pounds and have sent it towards a debt :D

    Unfortunately I've added to the debt due to taking my eye of the ball or getting stuff for holiday so here's where my debt stands.....

    Very £399
    Argos £92.98
    Halifax CC £513.93

    TOTAl £1005.91 :eek::eek: naughty Abba

    Already sent £22.55 towards the Argos as that is the agreement that needs to be paid first so I've started :T

    The plan is to clear Argos, then the halifax card, then the very account :D Then all I'll have left in my name is the Car finance and the Mortgage :D

    However I'll be tackling hubbys finance stuff, he has the window loan in his name will need to find out exactly how much is outstanding on that will add that to my weekly to do list then I'm hoping to have cleared this by Xmas :eek:

    Have wrote out my new Avon list will need to convert this the laptop as I have writers cramp, need to remember that i have a new customer to deliver a book to as well, will need to sort the books out as books are out on Friday :D

    Abbie's birthday is tomorrow as well as MIL's :eek: Abbie is getting driving lessons from us......we've already paid for her provisional and her first driving lesson is on the 18th :eek: so I have the money set aside for 10 lessons :T so need to go and get birthday cards and two cakes. She wants to go to Weatherspoons for her birthday dinner so that'll be a cheap dinner out :T

    Can't get too comfy as the Boys birthdays are on the 20th August so I can't fling as much as I would like towards the debts until after their birthdays but I will be giving it a good push tho :D

    Xander has the Orthodontist today poor wee thing getting assessed for his braces :( it'll be worth it in the end)

    right off to see if i can get access to hubby's loan account so I can start planning :cool:
