Afternoon

How are we all?????

Been a productive day today, watching my niece ruby roo who my baby k love to bits and they've been playing happily away so much so I wrapped all my daughters presents that are here (gran has two black bags full at her house for all the kids) , cleaned and bleached my bath room.........love the smell of bleach and sorted out my avon orders ready for delivery tonight

Working from 3pm til 8.30pm tonight but kids normally help out with the avon run so that'll keep them amused tonight lol xx

Also been a nsd today :j woo hoo love it when that happens, doesn't happen very often lol xx

College is meant to be paying me tomorrow but we shall see don't have much faith in them paying the childcare payments there always something that goes wrong lol but we will see how much they pay and if we are doing ok for money in our normal bank account then I will transfer it to the mortgage account, would be great if I could hit £2k before the end of the year fingers crossed xx

Off to do something before collecting the kids from school seeing as I'm on a organising streak lol xx
