    The bunting is lovely, great shed too 👍 Don’t blame you for setting some rules down for the child minding, you need to keep safe too. Another one here impressed by how quickly your savings build up.

    where have I been????

    5 days since I last updated my diary.

    As you can imagine very very busy but a worthwhile cause.  86 deliveries went out 4 came back due to people not being home so they won't be getting them again.  Have organised the phone lists for this weekend, I'm not doing any this weekend so I can relax a bit I guess.  Still have prescription list for next week to sort but I can do that tomorrow.

    I have £999.10 in my holiday account would have been more but have renewed the boys passports at £49 each so I'm happy with that Xander's old one has been sent back and I'm waiting on KK's teacher to confirm his details to verify his ID so once that is done I'll be getting KK's sent off.  All my accounts are even numbers but I'm picking Abbie up from work at 6pm no doubt I'll spend money there 

    Can't believe it's June on Monday it's flying in.

    I'm having my friend round tonight in the back garden for a Chinese, gin  and a catch up can't wait.

    Hope you are all enjoying the lovely weather.

    Has it really been 5 days? Wow.
    Your holiday fund looks good and has shot up again. 

    The Chinese sounds lovely. I've not had one in a long time.but always love the noodles and ribs.

    How is Abbie feeling now? 
    Have a lovely evening x

    Our local Aldi are amazing the donate loads we are also working in partnership with two charities who provide us with frozen food and fresh produce so it's going really well so far.

    That holiday fund is growing so fast, well done 👍 Hope you enjoyed the Chinese, gin and catch up with your friend. The supermarkets have been brilliant with FB donations and so they should be, hope this carries on indefinitely.

    Have a lovely evening x
    it's now sitting at £999.30 as transferred 20p over to it this morning, loads of bills came out this morning

    the Chinese was lovely, I'm a chicken chow mein girl had a great evening plenty of laughter just what I needed as I've missed my friend so much.

    Abbie needs shot, she got sunburnt on Wednesday because she took an allergic reaction to her sunscreen which we've been using for 3 years now so that's another one she's allergic too, don't know how many that's been now.  So her leg has swollen up, her foot is playing up again so thats strapped up and she's been having migraines.  But she's went to work as we said if she's not fit for work she can't her her boyfriend to visit, amazing what a little incentive does lol xx
