it was free to get in just had to pay £20 for the private exhibition but defo worth it for abbie
well today i met up with james today which was nice so spent about £3 on drinks and snacks and then £1.30 on a magazine and paperoops
five o'clock rise for tomorrow morning :mad: as i start work at 6am :eek: and finish at 2.30 so be back in time for kids so need to get a early night but i always clock watch on a early rise as i'm paranoid of sleeping inwhich has never happened tbh lol
my wee brother is coming over tonight and sleeping on couch so he can take the kids to school for me which is lovely and really helps me out.
applied for a new job 17.5 hours which would be perfect for me and i really hope i at least get a interview as these shifts are killing me plus one of the girls have handed in their notice so it means i'll be required to work more hours which isn't good as i'm having to organise babysitters.......this is where i really miss james's help but its very complicated why he can't help out, not that he doesn't want to help out he does but it's kinda out of my hands tbh
Have the avon run today so hopefully the rain will keep of til we get back in but the skys can't make their mind up whether they want to rain, snow, hail or be sunny :rotfl: so we will probably get soaking lol
hope everyone is well xxNEXT TARGET: Halifax credit card DEC 22 £0 / £4499.12POAMAYC 2011 £6378.35 POAMAYC 2012 £5000.78POAMAYC 2013 £3480.04 POAMAYC 2014 £4085.14POAMAYC 2015 £7565.24 POAMAYC 2016 £8000.90 POAMAYC 2017 £7278.80 POAMAYC 2018 £13208.18POAMAYC 2019 £13309.28 POAMAYC 2020 £15026.050 -
